SO TRUE.
Hm. If straight people complain about cute people being gay and the inverse is true...what's going on? D:
It means that the people "We" (as people) consider the hottest are always on the other side

We always want what we can't have.

So that's how Wain finds the rares first.. he's tipped off by an inside agent
Thanks to all for what has been found and added though.. it's been great to see.
There are a huge list of additional mobs to make tamable however - so don't start slowing down in that department!

...damn your logic!
During you people's search for single Blizz men, could you maybe find a nice girl, too? xD

Yay!
Thank you for countless hours of pre-Cataclysm joy. Seeing so many of the community's dream pets becoming available after the Cataclysm has been an indescribable experience, especially since most of us had no idea that anyone over there really
was listening.
I'm going to stick with The Lurker in lieu of an official name.

Possibly Noah the Lurker, due to the whole ark thing.
Welcome (officially) to the community!

Thank you very much all three of you! I think it's safe to say that I'm not the only one who's been overwhelmed by all those new looks we got for this expansion. At first I was both happy and sad about the new pet families we got, thinking "those are cool, sucks we don't get more". Then some new models and new skins started coming in, thought it was really nice to get more looks. But then it just didn't stop, and I was amazed by it! I am SO glad we got that much after almost 2 full years of seeing wolves everywhere!!
I remember when Core Hounds where announced to have Heroism/Bloodlust, I started to see a lot more hunters changing to BM and taming those. Then after 4.0.1 came out, BM hunters really started poping up all over the place like rabbits. Though I still see a lot of SV and MM hunters, at least on my server it seems that both BM and SV are taming a lot of pets, while MM are still sticking to their wolves, most of them when I talk to didn't even notice the howl changed from attack power boost to a 5% crit aura.
Still, the end result is just lovely! Thank you so much Mr.Developer for helping us getting a vast ammount of variety so that we all can chose a model and a skin to our linking when we decide to go tame a specific pet family, instead of being stuck with a small pool of choices.

If Blizzard was up in LA instead of Irvine, he'd be gay. Just sayin...
So, at least half our audience here still has a chance...

I'll second Noah. It makes sense.
Welcome Noah!!!

/hug Thanks so much for all the hard work you've put into our pets, Mr. Blizzard Developer Guy! I have to say, being a Hunter is what has <b>made</b> WoW for me, and just to have the opportunity to thank the person responsible for it ... I'm without words, and I'm an English Major!
So just thank you! Thank you for everything you've done to make this game the best I've ever played! That's right, WoW has now officially beat out The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Super Metroid in my books. Congrats!

*waves* Pleasure to have you here Mr. Lurker! ^^ I feel like a broken record a bit, but I honestly have to say again THANK YOU for all your hard work on this expansion. I can't express enough how pleased I am and how amazing it is to see this attention to pets. As Kalliope was mentioning, being able to experience the thrills and joy of an entire community with every new pet discovery has been a wonder. I'm positive this will go down as one of the best Hunter-friendly expansions in WoW.
And Wain, you lucky dog. xD Getting to see Blizzard HQ...../jealous.

Hmm. Wain agrees?

Hey. A guy can do worse than a rare-finding pet-loving Warcraft hunter.
OK. All gay jokes aside, I'm with the others: thanks and thanks and thanks again, Noah! (sorry; it's stuck). You've done us a world of good and you know that all we pet-loving hunters appreciate it.

And you too, Wain, for finding those rares and keeping us in the loop whenever you find stuff out! For those of us who don't do the PTR thing, your input's always hugely appreciated!
