This is great!
I've never heard Twisting, but I like the term...
You forgot Chuck Norris though
Oh, and you didn't mention the joys of Barrens chat

Thank you,
I like twisted too.
I know I am big user of Toon instead of Avatar to refer to my character, but that just may be a holdover from my COH/COV days.
By the way, I will freely admit to scaveging any skins left behind by a nonskinning character, after it is evident that they are not coming back for them. I don't think its actualy leaching since I could have killed them as well, but it is true that I am getting free goods off the ground that I did not engage in combat for.

Not everyone has the skinning skill, so when they dispatch animals they leave the bodies. Dozark considers it an act of conservation - removing animal carcasses left by others.
I agree - my rogue with skinning skill often has to clean up the environment after careless warriors have left dead animals all over the place. After all, it's a civic duty.
But, once, when I was new to the game, curiosity made me follow a band of Dwarves, obviously up to some mischief, to see where/who/what. They led me to a cave within which was a chest. Whilst they were battling the Firbolgs (or whatever), I snuck in and emptied the chest. Is that Leeching? Or (as my character is a rogue) just in-character?
In this case justice was (I suppose) seen to be done. The guys didn't want the chest and anyway, it was full of crap.

Anybody know where the World of Warcraft European servers are located? Someone said they are all in Britain but I am not sure. Would they have some in Germany, some in Finland etc?
I am trying to do a business plan for my own massive multiplayer game and was wonder how they spread out the resources.
