I also am thinking of some cosmetic site changes that will be coming... soonish. The feedback helped, especially to confirm my own thoughts about a few things regarding the sidebar. :D Thank you, thank you :)

Much like the others, it's the variety that keeps it good. If it was just hardcore warlock strategy and spell rotation and theorycrafting on haste vs spirit I'd be all...zzzzz. I don't read those. Sure there's a time for those, but you have a good thing going here. This is all good stuff. Much like the others, it’s the variety that keeps it good.

From the illustrious Gnomer. He's where I tend to find all the good blogs. ^_^ * What made you want to subscribe to our RSS feed (if you have done so)? I don't really do RSS, but I do check for new posts everyday. I'm kinda old school over here. ~_^ * Do you like the mix of topics, or do you/would you prefer more posts about [insert game/tag/category here]? I'm quite happy reading about whatever you have to say. It's a nice blend of WoW stuff, personal stuff, and random other stuff that keeps me on my toes. * What don’t you like and why? Can't really think of anything. It could be the time of night and fact that I should be in bed, but this is actually one of the only blogs that I don't skip over anything. I might not comment on everything, but I do read everything. * Is there anything that would be more helpful to add on the sidebar? (Better blogroll categorization, different placement/order of items, top posts, resources, etc) I'm a fan of the top posts things on the side, as well as the recent comments thing. But that's just a personal thing. * And… anything else you’d like to give feedback on! I <3 you, Syrana! And you, too, Sideshow! * How did you find/hear about us?

Honestly, your blog is one of the most entertaining ones out there and I think having the mix of topics makes it a little more personal, connecting the reader to the writer. I would only change one thing.. somehow get my work PC to not firewall you so I don't have to read the blog through google reader >.> I think I found out about your blog from a post Fulguralis made over on Killing ‘em Slowly a while back, but I’m not 100% sure.

How I found you: Through comments on my own posts, I think... or perhaps through your comments on other people's posts. It's hard to remember. I'm a link-clicker. Why I added you to RSS: Your color scheme hurts my eyes and is very... um... obvious when I'm reading at work (was working when I first found you) or at school (am in school now). I nip in only when I want to comment. What I like: general wow posts, especially those that are inter-blog commentary, the humor, the sim posts. Juuuust getting into the RP stuff, I never really was that into WoW lore until I had a breakthrough on that point recently (http://www.isheepthings.com/blog/the-long-defeat/) so I'm going back through and reading Aerissa's whole history between classes. What I don't like: I don't get into the metal related posts (even though I like some metal) I'm not really a music head. ;) But I don't think you should stop posting them, your blog has a unique flavor that All-WoW-All-The-Time blogs can't always match. Site design: well, the color scheme hurts my eyes. But it's very warlocky, so....
