The Pig is getting addicted fast, tweeting what must be every 15 minutes. I'm tweeting everything from random thoughts to Chuck Norris jokes to everything WoW. Promise I won't tweet about bathroom breaks like what most people do (too gross even for me) or what goes on in my bedroom (hubba hubba).
Follow WoW Gold Pig on Twitter: http://twitter.com/wowgoldpig
That's the URL. Now be a good piglet and follow my oink, I mean, tweet!
Howdy, Piglets. This Pig is happier than ever, thanks to his sweet lady who phoned just minutes ago to ask him if he likes lasagna! Yes, she cooks! She's coming over tomorrow to bring me a tray of her famous lasagna topped with crumbled bacon. Crumbled bacon! Is this a sign? Could she be the one? Oh my cholesterol levels!
She likes the occasional sinful food but makes up for it by practicing Pilates and running four times a week. She wants me to run with her next week! She loves the outdoors, she says. A girl after my own heart! Can't wait to run after, I mean, run with her. *Must suppress naughty thoughts*
So I've got her and my WoW Gold Pig sales to keep me happy and Zen.
BUT!
But that doesn't mean the Pig has forgiven the other camp! *Snorts, grunts* Just because the Pig is "keeping still" (or whatever those yoga peeps call it) doesn't mean he's taking all that lying down. No, sir, that would be like Pig-casso, I mean, Picasso forgiving the forger who copied his painting and made money out of the fake one. Unforgivable!
This crime is NOT going unpunished! This is war!
I'm also getting good at Photoshop. :D Picasso would have approved.
The Pig takes his business very seriously, little piggies. I didn't put up WoWGoldPig as a hobby. Nope, this is a VERY SERIOUS, VERY INTENSE deal. Think of it as my baby that brings home the bacon for me and makes life easier for busy WoW players. More importantly, this deal is also about giving the WoW gold-selling industry some CRED while maintaining my business' own CRED!
That's why I'm pissed when others take all the hard work of the Pig and his compadres and rip it off from the front, side and backside. But we all know that no copycat crime goes unnoticed (especially something as OBVIOUS as....hmm, my snout is sealed, even muzzled for now but go read the older posts for a clue, oink!). Pretty soon, WoW gold-buying peeps will catch on and know who the real McOink is!
In other news, the Pig has a date on Saturday night with a HOT HOT HOT MAMACITA! Think Blood Elf gorgeous, but with pupils in her lovely green eyes. WISH ME LUCK!!!
This Pig is Zen. This Pig will not stoop to their level.
Copycats, or in this case, copyhogs will get their karmic comeuppance.
How? Through their own stupid means.
We all know how poor imitations are just that - poor imitations of the real thing. In the end, the WoW gold buyers will know who is the real deal and who is the heel.
You can rip off web design and words, but you can't rip off quality service and delivery speed! You can't rip off honest business practices! And that's what WoW Gold Pig is all about - honesty and getting the job done.
This Pig is Zen until the bad reviews for the other sty, I mean camp, start pouring in. Then he and his gang of piggies can ROFLMAO with glee.
When you've been playing WoW as long as we have, you know how tedious and tiring all the raiding, BGs, arenas and farming can be. Of course, these activities are also equally rewarding.
I remember the day I earned my first 1,000 wow gold. Through a few sleepless nights, a dozen cans of mountain dew and an acne breakout, I finally saved enough gold to buy a Gigantique bag. Was it worth it? Probably.
But dude, was I knocked out cold after all that farming. I consumed enough sugar to give a small village in Mexico diabetes. I swore to myself that I'll never go zombie over the game EVER.
Then came Wrath of the Lich King.
BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAINSSSS...
So how did you bacon-heads spend your first 1,000 wow gold?
Why do we? We could just be normal dudes, chillin' at the skatepark or watching movies at the Vista. Heck, we could probably just continue playing World of Warcraft and no one would be the wiser.
But here we are selling gold. Why do we do it? Because we know how our fellow hardcore gamers feel - not having a lot of free time to have a chance at earning epic gear and higher levels. We feel for the dudes who are stuck in lowbie land and can't afford the awesome stuff. We want to share the joy of playing to other people. Oink on that.
One huge factor for WoW Gold Pig is to combat the terrible service and scams caused by Chinese gold sellers. As gamers who bought WoW Gold in the past, we've been burned far too many times by fake discounts, orders that weren't delivered and other totally bad experiences with shady sites.
WoW Gold Pig wants to be the shining bacon... I mean beacon in the darkness for WoW gold buyers. Remember - if it's WoW Gold you want, trust the pig.
Everyone starts out as a noob. Us pigs are no exception. Nothing like a fresh-off-the-boat, wet-behind-the-ears, green noob.
We have fond (and not-so-fond) memories of our virgin encounters with World of Warcraft, all before discovering the wonders of WoW Gold. Take a trip down memory lane and share the fun (or pain) in our 5 WoW Noob Moments:
1. Running from Thunder Bluff to Orgrimmar and back because you didn't know Flightmasters existed.
2. Chatting with someone for 5 minutes before realizing that he/she was an NPC.
3. Buying weapons sold by the NPC vendors and getting a better one from a monster the next minute.
4. Getting killed by Hogger for the nth time.
5. Asking in regional chat: "WHERE IS MANKRIK'S WIFE???"
Yeah, we won an award from there. (Yipee!) Gold medal for WoW Gold Pig, ladies and gentlemen. That EGF was one tough cookie but the Pig's charm, grace and juicy rump won him over.
Everybody loves pig rumps.
But let's not talk about that. Let's talk about EGF. I mean, wow, he's really stirring up the other gold sellers. Just take a look at his VeryGE review. He got their PR guys to reply and go apologetic in just a few entries.
Talk about influential.
We trust EGF's reviews. Really. There's only one thing we'd have to pick on him about - HE HASN'T UPDATED HIS MEDAL ROSTER! Screw Valentine's, screw Christmas, screw the Oscars - I want my WoW Gold Facts medal now!
I'll start writing my self-congratulatory speech right now.
Seriously, EGF. Start updating your site. We won't get mad, we just want our gold medal. Shiny shiny gold medal. Mmm...
WoW Gold Pig reportin' for duty, dudes! We're back and we've got a cool video for you. This YouTube collaboration comes from the famous Nymh, one of the more well-known WoW Machinima makers who can put down the beats along with the laughs.
The video, "Pwnage Like Us" is Nymh's last video. He's off to greener pastures and leaving WoW with a bang. Watch the video and be awed:
The editing, music, and vocals are superb - as expected from the mighty Nymh. You may have seen him before on WoW videos such as Hard Like Heroic, My Name is Nymh and the Warlock theme song, Just so OP. We will always remember you as a true bro.
Hot on the heels of our funny valentine, we talk about love. Love for our favorite game, World of Warcraft.
When you love someone or something, it's perfectly healthy to hate some things about it. Unless you love baby back ribs, of course.
If and when you can define what you don't like about something, it is then that you can appreciate all the other lovely things it has. We've put together a list of things minor annoyances in WoW.
10 Things we hate about WoW
1. Gnomes. 2. Clearing the area around a mining node and having someone else get it 3. Minding your own business and getting ganked by a passing Alliance rogue. 4. Gnomes. 5. The dated graphics. Seriously, WoW needs an update. 6. Pick up groups - if you've ever been in one, you know the horror. 7. Tedious farming. Hey, that's why WoW Gold Pig is here! 8. Naming your character - with over 12 million people making toons, getting a unique name is close to impossible. 9. Boring low level content - why does the game start at 80? 10. Gnomes.
My funny valentine Sweet honey cured valentine You make me smile with my heart Your looks are laughable Unphotographable Yet you're my favourite pork of art
Okay, so we're a bit late. But we haven't forgotten you.
We love you long time, xoxo my boo.
As full-blooded males, we were inclined to chase skirts and go out with our sweethearts.
I bet you all spent some time with your loved ones, too. Relationships are always important.
That pink-haired Gnome in Ironforge doesn't count. (She's a MAN, baby!)
Men will do amazing things to impress the ladies. Valentine's Day is a perfect opportunity to show how much you love your girl, what you're willing to do in the name of love and having her wear edible undies.
I went on a date with a sweet lil' piggy this weekend. I first met her online, on the opposite side of Arathi Basin as she took my BM Hunter down in a few seconds as a Ret Paladin.
She had me at Hammer of Wrath.
We met at a nearby cafe and exchange pleasantries. I think she looked gorgeous with her long wavy hair and svelte build.
She thought I was taller in person. She's only seen me as a dwarf.
I planned a romantic day, strolling in the park, going to a museum and capping it off at the most expensive restaurant a dude could afford. The sun was up, it wasn't too cold and we're both feeling great. Oh, how exciting!
We spent the whole day talking about WoW. And how she thought the alliance sucked.
We went to Taco Bell and just laughed our butts off talking about Chuck Norris, Rick Astley and High Overlord Saurfang.
It was then that I felt that it just became a lame valentine. My plans were derailed and we were chowing down on fake Mexican food. Oh, the horror!
On the way home, she gave me a kiss.
Whoa.
"I had fun. See you tomorrow?"
Sure!
"Oh, and switch to Horde, noob!" she said, smiling at me.
I could still hear her laugh as she closed the door.
What's up, my homies? The P.I.G. is in town ready to bring the floor down... or something.
Yeah.
We heard y'all like WoW Gold. Word, we dig that. Listen to my beats and we'll give you the lowdown on how to rake in the bling.
5 World of Warcraft Gold Tips
1. When in a new area, take the quests that are concentrated in one area or require you to kill the same monsters - you'll earn more WoW Gold and quest rewards in a shorter amount of time. Download and install the Quest Helper addon for easier questing, dude.
2. Get a gathering profession ASAP. As early as level 5, grab a gathering profession from the nearest trainer. Mining and skinning are good professions because the materials you get are always in-demand. Go out and mine for ore and skin animals and sell your stuff in the auction house.
3. Sell green and blue gear that you can't use at the auction house - DON'T sell it to NPCs. Check the auction house for prices and sell your gear accordingly. You can leave your auctions while you play and you'll eventually find a buyer.
4. When you have enough WoW Gold, buy Netherweave bags to increase the amount of items you can carry. More space means less time going back to town and sell your stuff.
5. Buy LOW, sell HIGH. Check the auction house for cheap in-demand items and buy them out. Wait a bit and put them on auction for a significantly higher amount. Be careful though - other players will notice this and undercut the price so that you won't have buyers. Play the auction house and play smart.
Aight, so you down with that? Cool. Of course, you can always buy WoW Gold to avoid the trouble and just get on with the program. Huzzah!
Cheap WoW Gold is a blessing for players who want to experience having epic gear but have no time to mindlessly grind for it. They can go to work and have a life without sacrificing the urge to play a sassy Draenei priest.
Of course, WoW Gold Pig has its share of naysayers. Individuals who are totally holier-than-thou and won't hesitate to smite you with their keyboards.
We were checking our inbox the other day when we came across a gem of an email - a shining example of an Anti-RMT paladin. An internet white knight who lays the smackdown on all things he doesn't understand, fueled by misinformation and nerd rage.
And dyslexia.
Here is a direct copy & paste of the email without any edits. This dude's hardcore.
DEAR WOGWOLD BASTERDS !!!
YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSLEFS. YOU ARE RILY PIGS DISGUSTING. WOW GOLDS IS ILLEGAL ACCORING TO BLIZZARD. IT IS SUPPROTING HACK ACCOUNTS AND DESTROYS TEH EcONOMYS OF INGAME. HONEST PLAYER LIKE ME PLAY 24/7 AND I DNOT WANT TO SEE YUOR SHIT!!!!1 IT IS UNFARE BECASE SCRUBZ CaN ALSO BUY FROM ACTION HOUSE W/ UR STUPID WOW GOLD. BUYING GOLDS IS FOR N00BS!!! THE REAL PLAYERS GHET THEIR GEARS THRU HARD WORK AND SKILLZ.GO PLAY GOLF Or ANY SHITY GAEM! WWOWHOLDPIG IS A SIN AND EVIL.I HOPE YOU ALL gO OT HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HATE, xCLOUD72x
PS: I WIL REPORT YUO TO THE CSI CUZ UR CROOKS
Whoa! Everyone knows that CAPS LOCK is cruise control for cool, buddy. Smooth move. We love you too, xCLOUD72x. All 72 of you.
I don't know where to begin. All those sleepless nights with mountain dew might've gotten to him.
What peeps don't understand about WoW Gold is that we're offering a service - a service for people who don't have time but have an extra dollar or two they're willing to part with. Services are not illegal - you pay babysitters to watch your kid while you're out with the missus, you hire workers to build your buildings - you get the point. What you could otherwise have not accomplished, or accomplished ineffectively, we do.
Another thing is that because of shady Chinese gold sellers, us legit pigs get bad reps. Compromised accounts, bad sales, and all that. What you can do is support the REAL heroes behind WoW Gold. Support the real, honest players who trade their time in-game for a few bucks. We don't deal with suspicious suppliers, just honest-to-goodness service for the dudes who want to buy a mount or cut down the grinding time. Trust the pig, the cheapest place to buy WoW Gold.
The pigs could go on, but it'll take forever to analyze this cryptic email from another dimension. We still have to grind for Sons of Hodir rep.
But dude, you have to chalk it up to the Blizzard marketing/advertising guys. They know their stuff. World of Warcraft has hit the mainstream and what better way to promote it further than with celebrities?
Genius, I tell you.
As smart porkers ourselves, we sat down and thought of other possible celebrity endorsers for World of Warcrack, I mean Warcraft. Take a look at our suggestions:
1. Britney Spears - Hi, I'm Britney Spears and I play a Blood Elf Skankmaster! It's also interesting to note that the Blood Elf /dance is based on Britney's Toxic video.
2. Barack Obama - The President would roll a Druid. Change we can believe in. Change to Bear Form. Change to Aquatic Form. Change to Flight Form. The change we need - when we need to switch from tank to DPS.
3. Chuck Norris - Fact: Chuck Norris once roundhouse kicked an icecube in his drink. That's how Northrend and Wrath of the Lich King was created.
4. Donald Trump - he can 'fire' people as much as he likes as a Fire Mage. He also has more WoW Gold than anyone else.
5. Misa Campo - okay, a longshot. So I just want to see a really hot chick on the list. Shoot me.
What about you piglets? Any ideas for WoW celebrity endorsers?
(I bet you 10 WoW Gold that we got your attention right away.)
The WoW Gold Pig dudes love their World of Warcraft. We also love girls. Put them together and we'll have a WoW-gasm.
Hoo boy. These sexy ladies come from a user named swanky on Flickr. Go ahead and see his photostream for more WoW girls. While we can't read the description, we assume that this is some kind of gaming expo in Hong Kong or somewhere relatively Chinese (they all look the same, so shoot me).
We may not like their gold selling methods, but we sure as hell dig their chicks!
Because WoW is big everywhere in the world, you can't have a gaming event without the WoW cosplay. The Pigs are impressed with the costume details, the colors of the fabrics, the likeness of the...
Howdy, porkchops! May your pockets be lined with WoW Gold!
We all know that World of Warcraft is a fun game. Like, totally. A lot of people will agree with me, fo sho. With roughly 12 million subscribers, WoW can practically buy out a small country. Blizzard has infused WoW with the ingredients for awesome.
- You play as a brave adventurer in a world gripped by chaos.
- You get to lay the smackdown on big bad evil guys like Arthas, Kel'Thuzad and Mr. Wiggles.
- You get to dress/undress your well-endowed Night Elf hunter in form-fitting and questionable armor.
Oh yeah. Totally sweet, sweet stuff. Sweeter than honeybaked sweetham. You'd be hard pressed to find something more entertaining than WoW on a Friday night. You can pretty much say that WoW can't get any better than this.
Whoa, cowboy. What if I tell you that WoW Gold Pig has an EVEN SWEETER way of playing WoW? Yeah, dude, like the title says:
The WoW Gold Pig Drinking Game
The rules are simple: Go on a raid with your friends and have some drinks ready. Whenever something in the list happens in-game while you're playing, you take the corresponding number of shots. The drink could be anything; mind-numbing tequila preferred.
You kill a monster - take 1 shot Someone says "LOL" in chat - take 1 shot for each LOL You pick up an item - take 1 shot You receive healing - take 1 shot
Someone dies - take 2 shots per dead dude Someone goes AFK - take 2 shots, take 1 extra shot if you go AFK Someone picks up a green item - take 2 shots Someone uses a food/drink item - take 2 shots
Your group kills a boss - take 3 shots Your group wipes - take 3 shots and do a handstand Someone picks up a blue/purple item - take 3 shots Someone else throws up - take 3 shots
The pigs did a round of this last Friday while doing 10-man Heroics. It was a truckload of fun.
And corrupted livers.
For added fun, get your toon drunk in-game with some Blue Ogre Brew while you get shitfaced yourself. Up the ante with WoW Gold bets and you've got a winner.
Oink away, drinkers!
BIG FAT DISCLAIMER:
Whoops, forgot to include this one. Sorry sorry, porquitos. The Pig may be a, um, Pig but he is also a socially responsible dude and wants you to remember that:
There is a Government warning that says that the Surgeon General in turn says that consumption of alcoholic beverages impairs your ability to drive a car or operate a machine (which includes a PC and in effect impairs your WoW playing), AND may cause health problems. Also, pregnant women should not drink alcoholic beverages during pregnancy because of the risk of birth defects.
So there!
If you actually drink this many shots you will DIE (and you can't resurrect like we can in the game but fo sho you already know that, right?). SO DON'T DO IT.
Now if you can't help yourself, please give me your login information so I can invite your toons to your funeral.
Boy, I haven't had a good oink laugh in a looooong time.
Me and the pigs were taking on the Netherwing dailies and talking on ventrilo last night when someone brought up customer complaints and questions. Some are valid, some are weird, and some... are just downright hilarious.
We ended up laughing our asses off the whole night and not getting anything done.
Here are just 15 of the funniest WoW Gold Pig calls, emails and in-game transactions:
1. Someone wanted his gold to be delivered to his Call of Duty character.
2. During verification, a very angry customer demanded to know why he needed an internet connection to play WoW. When told that WoW was an MMORPG, the customer demanded that we make it single player.
3. Customer threatens to 'turn the internet off' if he didn't get a discount. We think he meant to turn his router/modem off. Oh noes, the internet!
4. Hearing a young customer (during phone verification) arguing with his mother over sending the gold to his Horde or her Alliance character.
5. Talking to a drunk customer who confused WoW Gold Pig for Adult Friend Finder.
6. Hundreds of emails, one question - "Why pig?"
7. Consoling a WoW player who broke up with her virtual Night Elf boyfriend.
8. Reprimanding said Night Elf boyfriend for cheating on Gnome girlfriend. We can't blame him, though. I mean, dude... Gnomes.
9. Having to explain what World of Warcraft is to a 70-year old who wants to buy a present for her grandson. Our canned response "A repetitive game about killing 20 different species into extinction as a half-naked blue elf and facing demons from another world" wasn't very convincing.
10. People ordering cold cuts, bacon, pork rinds, and sweet ham on a daily basis.
11. Questions about what the next WoW expansion would be. As much as we'd like to answer "The Pork Chop Strikes Back," we're not Blizzard Entertainment, dudes.
12. Delivering gold to a customer and spending the next 80 minutes declining propositions for questionable activities in Stormwind. From here on, our delivery characters will be burly, big orcs and male tauren. No more blood elf cuties for you.
13. Asking for a best time and location to deliver an order and getting a 10-page novel about the wonders of Orgrimmar and how fierce the towers look under the light of blazing torches and the sound of the wind blowing on the rooftops. Players on the RP realms are a queer bunch.
14. Phone verification rep: "Thanks for your time. And if you have questions..." Customer: "What are you wearing?" Sicko!
15. Customer email after completed delivery:
"I checked my mailbox and all I can see there is the latest issue of Hustler and my Comcast and T-Mobile bills. I have checked inside and out. Where is my gold, you pigs???"
Howdy, piglets! How was the weekend? Young people all over the world were out seeing other people, partying, socializing and having a great time.
What? You sat your butt in front of the 'puter playing World of Warcraft?
We figured as much.
Don't worry, we're in the same boat.
Who needs friends when you've got a bank full of purples and a truckload of WoW Gold, right?
Just don't forget to go back to work on Monday, dude.
You don't have a job?
Jeez, fine. I get it, you still own a fine piece of real estate under your mom's house.
But, hey! You're in luck - according to Softpedia, the bigwigs at IBM are totally into WoW players like you!
...as the global executive in charge of games and entertainment at IBM, David Laux, has revealed that his company actually likes WoW players because of their organized lifestyle and leadership skills. He says that almost any game can have a positive impact on people and that other companies need to embrace their gaming employees but, at the same time, have them draw a line between their virtual and real-life duties.
“We have found across the board, if you look at different categories of games, they all have the ability to develop unique skills. That's from the casual games which improve memorization and the ability to discern details, to console games and shooter games that develop rapid decision making and to role playing games like the World of Warcraft that are very unique in producing leadership skills. [World of Warcraft] produces tremendous leadership skills among players. It teaches you how to evaluate risk, build teams for specific tasks and it also teaches individuals not to over react if they are not selected for a specific task.”
The Pigs are chilling, fresh from a Heroic Violet Hold run. That was intense! Good thing our tank was well-geared and we were putting up impressive DPS.
Peeps keep sending mail inquiring about our name. Why WoW Gold Pig, you ask? Why the oink not?
Pigs are great. They live large. They're smarter than dogs. And…they have a sensitive side…pathologically independent, stubborn, and territorial. Yeah! Sounds like a personal review of my guild mates!
They also make for tasty baby back ribs.
But to really answer the question…and because a mental “picture” is worth a thousand words…I’ve compiled a list of things that may indicate if you are truly a WoW Gold Pig. Without sounding too Letterman, here you go:
*trumpet and drum roll*
10. You make strange, pig-like noises in voice chat to call your group's attention.
9. You play 4 hours a day and you have more WoW Gold than Johnny Depp has girlfriends…(this comment is founded on envy, not fact…my apologies if he’s gotten married since I last read a cheap Hollywood review…hehe)
8. You think Taurens are hot. (Hint: They're cows, you pig!)
7. You visit WoWGoldPig.com just to click the logo and hear the porker oink. (Admit it.)
6. You don’t have a NYSE ticker tape…but you DO check the Pig’s price feed hourly
5. You gather a group in WoW and take on the Hogger mob every single day.
4. You treasure your Golden Pig vanity pet.
3. You insist that Billie Jean is not your child, but a half-pig Warlock who summons deranged rock stars.
2. You pig out on pizza more than 5 times a week…(there’s nothing not natural about eating pizza 20 times a month…think of it as hording)…it’s that you are starting to think the Indian dude delivery boy is lusting after your T6 gear so you now have your pizza delivered to your neighbor’s address…where you wait on the door step dressed up like an Alliance tart trying to enter Stormwind…
