I'm just glad I checked for the gryphon at a weird hour, and tamed it then had to dodge a disgruntled paladin. What IS it with human paladins and being rawr in pvp? The world is strange.
As Horde, Alliance are MUCH more aggressive against Horde than Horde is against Alliance. And that is on a PVE server. Don't know why. We just don't think about Alliance that much unless we are in battlegrounds. Have other things to do. On my Alliance toon, the Alliance side is very driven and bitter against the Horde. Perhaps it is part of the story now, but I don't get it personally.

As to posted topic of pet peeves...
:roll: MY STUPID FOLLOWER! Always in my way. No matter who I choose, they are in my way when I loot, when I am killing something, when I am talking to a quest giver. Which is why I chose Nighthunter Syrenne so I can put her on the back burner when I don't need her. :roll: Yeah, that has been my peeve since WoD.... lol.

Me either. I figure Alliance is gonna do what it do. I'm just glad I got the gryphon and I never have to deal with assholes camping the spawn points just to kill Horde. We didn't have anyone camping the raptor just to kill Alliance, and on MG, we routinely have Alliance coming in and killing NPCs/guards. It's baffling.

I just wish Syrenne would FD like Rexxar.

Iowa - the guild tells are part of an addon (one I would like to punch the inventor of) that seeks out all online unguilded players in a zone and sends them a) an unsolicited ginvite and b) a prewritten whisper of the user's writing. If you have ginvites turned off, that's why you're only seeing the tell, but the users of this addon aren't asking YOU if you want to join their guild, they're just spamming this addon and you're being caught by it.

Report them for spam; they ARE spamming, and if enough people do it to get Blizzard's attention, the spam will be in their logs.

someday I'll find someplace to host a sig that isn't stupid money-grubbing photobucket

My pet peeve is when I'm waiting for a pet spawn or some other pet I'm trying to track down and either 2 situations happen.

1. Another hunter comes in, pulls aggro, and tames. Right in front of me. As I was about to tame.
2. Another hunter/class comes in and kills it.

Another pet peeve was back in MoP, when people were yelling at hunters to bring in Brez pets. Like. I want to play with the pets I have on me right now please.

A very stupid pet peeve, but I can't help it, it gets my hackles up:

Mixed-lore guild names.

I HATE seeing guild names that are based off material that has absolutely nothing to do with WoW or its world. I might give a pass to something that is at last Blizzard-based (ie: Starcraft, hearthstone, etc...)

But there's someone in front of me now, in game, who belongs to a guild called "Riders of Rohan". It just grates my teeth.

The other type of guild name that annoys me is bad usage of Latin or other languages.

A bit of palindromic wisdom:
"Step on no pets!"
Casual player.. don't raid, don't PvP. Suffer from extreme altitis
I love pets - combat or non.

The ones that really ruffle my jimmies are the GoT/Ice&Fire guilds (because they're dumb and overused) and the Gor guilds(because it's a red flag for REALLY TERRIBLE PEOPLE.)

Riders of Rohan has been around on AD for a while now. To this day, I still confuse it with the old Riders of Redrige guild from back in Vanilla. Riders of Redridge was made up pretty much entirely of people working for some gold-farming company. It wasn't uncommon to see member characters botting in the Southern Barrens. A friend of mine and I once spent some time 'herding' one of 'em over to a rare so that it'd get killed over and over again.

Pet peeve of 2018: started lvling my alts finally and started on my Warlock - the class hall holy bejeezus blizzard! Could you make a more confusing layout? Like was it a weird competition amongst the designers? Maybe it's just me but I seriously got lost trying to get to the "?" mob on the map!! Maybe it's cause I just started but atm it's a big nope.

Hunter lodge - awesome. makes sense and super convenient location.
Dreamgrove - beautiful if big (but you can fly!). location, location, location!
Paladin Hall - Gorgeous and self contained. (I even went around and read the statue plaques)
Wandering Isle - I love pandaland and easy to get about (even if Ban-Lu thinks i'm fat)
Warlock world of demons and confusion - nope.

Dreamgrove drives me bonkers. I really just started re-playing my Druid and already I absolutely loathe the class hall.
However, to be fair, I AM colourblind, so everything being green is NOT a huge help to me.

I think if I didn't have flying this would be me too. It's quiet spread out compared to the hunter hall for sure.

The only thing that gets me is porting in and then having to run some distance to another portal to get to the real class hall. I find myself avoiding it if I can hearth to Dal and get what I need.

The DK one, you can mount up immediately and fly wherever you like. Really conveniently laid out :)

One of my most nitpicky peeves of the druid hall is that you can't even teleport and then start running straight through to the order hall portal, the bridge is slightly to the side. :lol: It would be a little better if you could just start autorunning straight ahead.
