Every so often I talk about a nifty RP addon I’ve found. Some are more complex than others. This is the simplest one so far but what it does is a truly amazing thing.

This week’s review is of the addon RPButton.

Let me tell you a little story. Once upon a time there was a RP addon called Immersion RP. It worked much the same way as MyRoleplay and FlagRSP but it was lightweight, very user friendly, and it had this lovely little button attached to the chat window that would kick it into RP Mode. What that meant was it would hide your entire interface except the chat window. That was my favorite feature.

Time went by and the original developer stopped supporting it. I was a sad panda. Then someone picked it up again! Hooray! Then Blizz redid how we access the friend list and it borked IRP. IRP had been dropped again. Sad panda.

Then just before the arrival of Cataclysm here comes RPButton developed by a former user of IRP that was also a sad panda. It is so terribly cute too. Just one little button that you can easily slide around on your screen that does exactly what the RP Mode in Immersion did. I keep mine neatly tucked under my chat window. So when you don’t want to see all the interface crap on your screen but still want to chat, RPButton is there to save the day!

Such a simple thing that makes Nau a happy panda again!

I hope this time it is for a while. In a nutshell: Had issues, had to move in with someone for 30 days before another move. Moved 1000 miles, got a new job, had to find a new place to live, and all the lovely time and money consumption that goes with all that!

I’m back now and trying to figure out where I and my darlings fit in this new shattered world. Posting will resume shortly!

….knocks us down and repeatedly beats our face into the concrete.

In a nutshell, things have gone to hell for me yet again. After circumstances led to it being necessary for me to move out from where I was living I’ve had to make an unexpected drive of 800 miles to leave my cats with my dad to take care of for a while. After that I will be staying with someone kind enough to offer me a bed for the next month until I make the move myself. Where I will be staying there is no internet. So I will be out of game and offline for the foreseeable future.

I have one more Ithrene story snippet in my head based on an event in game if my stress level will let me actually write but I don’t guarantee anything.

So for now, I will be off tending to my crappy life and will hopefully get to return to something resembling stability before Christmas.

Thanks to my friends, my readers, and everyone that has touched my life recently through WoW and beyond.

You know, generally we only hear stories of the rotten customer service experience. Having worked in customer service I know that road travels both ways. Sometimes the customer is the butthead and the agent really does all they can to help and gets heaps and heaps of undeserved abuse. So I thought I would share my recent experience with Blizzard Customer Service.

The past couple weeks (or more) the blogging has been sporadic and lackluster at best, finally trickling down to none in the last week. My apologies for this to the few people that actually read this blog. Honestly I’ve been having a great deal of difficulty working up the energy or desire to write.

Some of you are aware that recently my stress levels have been way way way beyond excessive and my moods have been pretty…. moody. Rather than inflict them on others that really shouldn’t have to deal with me being emo (and likely don’t want to anyway) I’ve just backed away from everything.

Looming in the near future I have a physical move of over 800 miles. And as stressful as that sounds, it will actually lessen some of the stress I have been under lately. However during that process (which isn’t happening RAIT NAU but will be before the end of the year) it is not likely I will be in game or doing anything with this blog.

I do have one character that is talking and so until that time I will be trying to write some fluff posts for her. Nothing deep and meaningful but a bit of light entertainment. I should start posting those before the end of the week. Light RP posts, though, are about all I’m feeling up to right now.

Again, my apologies and hopefully I will be able to get back up to speed before too long.

I’ve been working on my pinup calendar project again and as you saw last week I posted the drawing of the Dwarf pinup girl. Now is your turn to help choose the next pinup!

Which race would you like to see drawn as a pinup girl?

I’ve always had this idea to put together a WoW pinup calendar of my artwork. It is slowly coming together. I hadn’t shown any of my artwork in a while so I thought I’d give a little preview.

Keep in mind this isn’t colored yet. It will be amazing once I color it!

Even the chunky girls can be hawt!

I hate PUGs. I will admit it that getting thrown in a group with four complete strangers is so stressful it makes me want to vomit. Even having one person in a group that I know makes it much easier. So when Benemus asked me if I wanted to go on a Random I was all over it.

My was I surprised when I got there and found the group waiting for me.

The PUG that waited for me.

I could learn to like PUGs like this…

Who's tight ass is that under that shield? That's Benemus!

Hey everyone, my dad is coming to visit me this week so starting today I’m going to be scarce. I’ll put up a few filler posts here at TDRP but don’t expect anything spectacular!

Bleh. As I’m recovering posts I’m discovering that 90% of the board is still broken. I’m trying to figure out why. So if you’re getting errors when clicking links, that’s why.
