This will be my last post, I wanted to thank all my readers and everyone whoever commented on one of my posts. I got to the point where I had more gold coming in then I could spend, and the challenge became boring. I sent all my in game wealth to my sister and taught her how to make as much gold as she wants, but considering the amount of gold I sent over, I am not sure she will ever need to.At

What should you do with all that gold sitting in your bank account? Here are 10 suggestions. Well you have bought sold and conquered and now sit on an overflowing pile of gold. What do you do with it? To be honest, Blizzard has gone out of their way to make sure there wasnt much to spend your gold on. I really wish they had actually come out with the whole pimp your mount system. I would have

Notes on what i plan to podcast for my guild on the next segment. Why you might not be making as much gold as you think.Almost everyone here has been in economics 101, so you should remember the story about two men. Man A can produce 4 pizzas or 2 sodas in a day; man B can produce 1 pizza or 4 sodas a day. If each man spent half their time producing pizza and soda, man A would have 2 pizzas and

A Blog from Japan!So I am writing this from Japan, but thought I would try to get to a web cafe to get this posted to my blog when I get a chance. So today lets talk about the phases of learning the Auction House.While I am still refining my theories about the WOW economy, I think that all players can be placed into one of four categories. The following is me trying to quatify my thoughts and

Out of the country, will resume blog upon my return. Sorry just didn't have the time in the hectic day to day to get around to putting togethr one of the 8 drafts i currently have hiding in back. anyway I will return around the 12th, so expect something by the 15th.

Perhaps it wasn't really such a great idea. About 3 months ago I lent 2000g to a guild member of mine. I wasn't sure if I would ever get the gold back, and I was upfront in saying that he could pay me back at his leisure in the next two months. A month since then has passed and I have yet to receive even a "hey I have almost made enough to pay you back". I guess I should explain my reasoning

A big decision for your character is what profession to choose. All professions can be broken down into 3 categories. Gathering Professions, Armor Professions, and finally Accessory Professions. The exception to this in Engineering, which has elements of all three, but does none of them especially well. Each category has it's positives and negatives, and I wanted to talk to you about how to

So today I am going to discuss another section of the Auctioneer Suite, known as Automagic. The module is designed for selling items to vendors automatically, well sort of. Like anything in the game the developers want abilities to be triggered by keypresses, so you'll have to hit a confirm button. This is a very cool module, it save alot of time, and comes with some cool functions. We will

Stocker I choose you! Or I would if there was such a add-on. I think the biggest waste of my time each week in my glyph sales is in the restocking of sold glyphs. Each week I mill several dozen stacks of herbs, and then craft several hundred bottles of ink and finally create a queue in ATSW based of what needs to be restocked. As I had mentioned in a previous blog post I was irritated by having

I wanted to go into detail about batch posting, but first I wanted to discuss slightly the path I have taken to finally understand and use batch posting effectively.I think there are phases in the life of an auction house trader. The first phase is being a buyer. You don’t sell, buying things you need when you have enough gold from questing or dailies. At some point perhaps due to lack of gold,

I think about WOW economics alot, and how the market affects the game. Today I wanted to hash out some of my thoughts about the past and the future of WOW professions. This is primarily related to what professions offer the most potential for profit.Through the last 3 eras of the game, Vanilla, BC, and Wrath, each has had a dominant profession. By dominant I refer to profit potential. In the

This post is going to be on somewhat of a tangent, it involves making gold and saving time doing it, but not with the Auction House or mods. Recently with the release of Patch 3.1 the Argent Tournament was released. Now I know most of you have taken a peak at it but perhaps some of you haven't realised the quick gold from dailies that are available there? (Updated with info from Nick!)Once you

I have taken the glpyh market by storm over the last few weeks and made a bundle. There however is one thing that irks me. Milling. While I am also at it lets discuss Prospecting and Disenchanting. These are the skills within tradeskills that make these professions really grindy.By grindy I mean, repetitive and boring. Which actually gives me some hope. Blizzard has made many attempts to change

So I started this blog at first to be a place where my podcast notes could be posted for those who wanted to review them. As time past I decided to add a little to that and eventually I came to a point at which I questioned where I was going with all of this. Was this for my podcast notes? Was it going to become a real blog? Before I went off into a hundred diferent direction I took a little

Advanced Trade Skill Window is a wonderful mod for saving time. It allows for two really useful features that can shave time off of your auction house crafting sessions. The first is the ability to que up entire lists of items to make, and the second is the ability to create custom sorting lists.Advanced Trade Skill Window will dominate two aspects of your productions. The first is in what you

This article will talk about using the Snatch function of Auctioneer. Snatch is one of the many functions of the mod auctioneer. Snatch allows you to instantly bring up a list of items that you are interested in and then basically click and buy them almost instantly. The first step is to of course do your scan for the day. Without a recent scan, Snatch will not work properly and be pretty much

This is just me complaining. I play a warlock and have since the burning crusade expansion. I love the warlock, I love the idea and the play style. I have many things I wish for such as the ability to get new pet demons like hunters can, but for the most part I am happy.Except for one thing. Where is the warlock love?

I had a discussion today with a guild member who was eager to get to max level in his profession so that he could produce epics to sell on the auction house. While I have had less then spectacular results with it myself I have made a profit selling epics and considering that I always see them being sold on the auction house we would assume that others are as well.As I discussed this with him, I

This is somewhat a response to my comment in wow trader six where I said based on your level you should have certain professions.It is my belief that while questing and leveling you should have two gathering professions, so levels 1-79 you gather level 80 you can choose to do something else. The reasons for this are as follows.1. your already out in the world, gathering allows you to increase
