How to grind rep with the Derchlon faction:

Derchlon's picture

Derchlon — Sun, 06/22/2008 - 01:43

Alright so its late, its been an interesting day for me, and I'm not entirely coherent right now. That means this is the perfect time to give all of you a good way to grind your way to Exalted status with Derchlon. This is just an on the fly list of things I like, and conversation topics that I relish.

1. Baseball. I enjoy people who can discuss the inner strategy of a 3-1 ground ball to shortstop, and why the hitter got fooled by the high heat again when it was the last two pitches thrown. Common phrases from these people include "I just said that! These announcers should give me their job," and "I knew they should have benched that guy earlier" Also, trash talking Bill Bavasi with an intelligent reason is worth bonus rep.

2. Misa Campo. She happens to be one of the most attractive women I've ever seen. Way back before I got involved in WoW, I was labeled as "The guy who really likes Misa Campo" on a message board I was on. I pretty much pushed her image on the site before she was as known as she is now, and now she's decently popular. Chances are if you've heard of her before, thank me for it. She's best known for her picture in the green shirt with the sprite logo. Have fun on Google Images ;).

3. Hypothetical situations. These can't just be simple "what if we replaced a mage with a boomkin?" kind of questions, they need to have more meaning, and likewise, consequences. A good example is as follows: Two girls love you very much, but you only love one of those girls in return. However, if you choose to be with the one you love, the other is banished and tortured for eternity, but if you pick the one you don't love, you can never see the one you DID love ever again. So, which do you choose?

4. Quoting from movies in common conversations. This is self explanatory. If its from a movie, and its in the conversation, done deal.

5. Being a woman. If you're a woman, you start at friendly level, instead of the neutral everyone else starts at. Complete the "I have a good personality" quest with me, and you'll automatically jump to honored. This quest is only available to females.

6. The Pacific Northwest. If you knew that Olympia was the capital of Washington, and not Seattle, you gain in rep. If I have to explain that its not Washington DC you will LOSE rep. References to our great wines, scenic views, pristine waters, and choice foods will increase rep levels.

7. Hunter Class. If you understand the intricacies of shot weaving, rotations, bow speeds, and pet micro-management, etcetera... especially if you don't play a hunter... and can appreciate what good hunters put in to their job work every night, there is rep to be gained. "lol autoshot" comments, and standing ontop of hunters that are feigning death during wipes, loses rep. The latter may shoot you down to hated status. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

8. American Dream Pizza. Best pizza place I've ever been to in my life. For those of you in Portland, or closeby, its just off Burnside. I recommend the Athena or the one with the freshly sliced tomatoes on top.

9. Womanly features. Yes, I am a man, and as a man there are certain things I like particularly: Boobs, butt, legs, waist, eyebrows, and (the weird one) the nook right between the boob and the armpit. There are ways to earn rep from this, but I'm not telling. :þ

10. Smooth Jazz. Some people describe this as "elevator music," but I know better. Nothing like some Kenny G to soothe the soul. Not to mention it can be great music for romantic dinners, with a little slow dancing too.

11. Swing Dancing. I'm not talking about country swing, I'm talking about Lindy Hop, Charleston, Eastcoast, and Westcoast. Its great for keeping yourself in shape, and if you're a bit shy it helps break you out of your mold. And nothing makes you feel more suave than to finish a dance with a dip. ;)

12. Politics. Politics is practically banned from Guild Chat, Raid Chat, and Vent, but I'm open to talk about it in whispers. So long as whomever I'm talking with doesn't take my opinions as personal attacks. I'm not going to leave the conversation hating you, and doing me the same honor is a sign of wisdom beyond your years.

13. People that read long as hell posts. If you've read this far, I'm talking to you, and you gain +250 Derchlon rep. just by posting below.

 

These are just some things I like/appreciate, and I'd be happy to talk about any of them with you guys. If you like/appreciate some of these things too, let me know. It'll give me more to talk to you about, and also give you guys a chance to get to know me better. Later!

I hate this. I hate this as much as warlocks who get heals while trying to hellfire themselves to death.

John Coltrane is good, I

Derchlon — Mon, 06/23/2008 - 15:09

John Coltrane is good, I like his stuff. Same with Stan Ghetz and Dave Brubeck. I'm also a fan of The Rippingtons, Boney James, Mindi Abair, George Benson, David Benoit, Marc Antoine, ,Steve Cole and others.

and no Freak, Man-boobs do not count.

My cousins have a summer

pulga — Mon, 06/23/2008 - 14:10

My cousins have a summer home out on Lopez Island.  I've been there for a few summers, and damn is that place gorgeous.   

I was watching a mets game the other day (I'm a yankees fan, but baseball is baseball) and almost everything i was saying was said by the announcers about 20-30 seconds later.

 

Do man-boobs count? Just

Do man-boobs count? Just curious.

Oh, also look into Chick

Shihli — Mon, 06/23/2008 - 11:44

Oh, also look into Chick Corea and Dave Brubeck ... Stan Getz is another good choice.

Kenny G is NOT smooth

Shihli — Mon, 06/23/2008 - 11:29

Kenny G is NOT smooth jazz.  It's shit jazz.

If you want smooth jazz, find Miles Davis and John Coltrane from the 50's and early 60's.

next time i'm on we r so

Kyleie — Mon, 06/23/2008 - 10:44

So lets see here. I get rep

Dragon — Mon, 06/23/2008 - 10:00

So lets see here.

I get rep for knowing shit about the hunter class (<3 survival)

Rep For Politics and Movie quotes.

+250 rep for reading this.

However, being a saxophonist you and I gotta talk about Kenny G. 90% of actual Sax players hate him. Not because he is good but because all he does is play above the bar over and over.

I thought he was good once but I prefer the sound of a real saxophone now.

Btw have you ever listened to Big Bad Voodoo Daddy? I think you will like them.

piss cunt fuck shit cocksucker motherfucker and tits. RIP George Carlin

Dragon, I havent played in

Grasen — Mon, 06/23/2008 - 11:14

Dragon, I havent played in years but I fully agree with you on Kenny G.   I played Alto, Tenor, and Beri sax for years.   Wonder if i would still remember how.
