As the title says, this isn't about WoW or tanking at all. I'm a web developer by trade, and I've been running into this issue with Cascading Style Sheets and how CSS rules are overridden. I don't really have a place I can tell people about things I find out about web development and design and the various technologies associated with it, but I have this 'blog. I know some of you deal with CSS and such on a regular basis, and this might be useful for somebody out there.

So, to start...

My guild cleared ZA last night, for the first time. I haven't had any word as to how long it took, or any loot that dropped, but we now have the screen shots in our ZA Mortuary thread on our forums.

Yeah, I was off having real-life fun at a concert. It kinda sucks that I wasn't there for the kills, but hey... I got to see one of my favorite bands for only $5.00

I can only hope that this doesn't kill all the enthusiasm for ZA, as I'd like another shot at Malacrass...

I've been kind of bored with WoW lately. I wasn't leveling my shaman, and I wasn't doing anything with my warrior except for raiding once a week (at most... ZA didn't go off last week). I've even become bored with Brewfest already. Then two things happened.

First, I respecced my shaman. I went Resto, and started healing instances. So easy, and yet so fun. As long as the tank is the only one taking damage, all I have to do is throw the occasional Healing Wave and keep Earth Shield...

People tend to talk in the first person about their toons - I'm sure you've all noticed this. But what fascinates me is that they tend to set a point of reference at one character, speak in the first person when referring to that character, and then refer to other characters on their account in the third person.

For example, say I'm talking about my warrior. I will say things...

Since I don't think we can really do polls, just reply in the comments.

Do you know the real life names of your guildies, and to what extent?

In my guild, if someone joins, it's expected that they'll put their RL name in their guild note. It's just the way we operate: as a group of friends who happen to play WoW together (and other things - I'm playing D&D 4E with some of them tonight (more on that later)). This isn't to say that I know all of these people in real life,...
