Goblin versus Gnome Engineering in Cataclysm
I’ve made some changes based on the comments, and may continue to do so. As I worked up my Hunter’s Engineering, I got to the point of choosing between Goblin and Gnome Engineering. I’m doing this with an eye towards Cataclysm. I found very little help in several web searches, so I thought I would use my own reasoning as a guide to others who might be facing this choice. There was some talk about removing specializations from professions which would remove the choice entirely. I actually hoped this was route the developers would take. The profession specializations have been removed from Leatherworking, Tailoring, and Blacksmithing. They have NOT been removed from Engineering or Alchemy. Jewelcrafting, Inscription, and Enchanting never had specializations to begin with. As of this writing (11.27.2010) Goblin and Gnome Engineering are still in play. However, there are no known Goblin or Gnome specialization recipes for 80 to 85, and if you base it on the materials needed the las...

Its a shame that the server is that lopsided.... "stay good honors... stay good" [said as kiki from sluggy freelance]
have fun
Going from Dwarf to Blood Elf is just so wrong!
Now I must hunt you down and slay you. Horde scum.
Another Blood Elf Paladin and Blogger, this will cause a Cataclysm. It wasn't Deathwing doing :)
This also brings up the issue of is faction change going to make unbalanced servers even worse? I'm curious because the guild I run on Elune (PvE) has had a horde "sister" guild for years, and only in the past year or so has it really started to get going. Our server is unbalanced in the other direction (Alliance outnumbers Horde by a good bit) but we have people starting to transfer 80s to our Horde. I can see this happening to Explorer/Achiever types of people, but it wasn't the direction of travel I expected.
Any thoughts?
After you catch your breath, you might have to update your sidebar, which says:
"Honorshammer, Level 80 Dwarf Paladin, Main"
I can understand changing factions though on a PVP server to get to the side so you don't have as many issues.
But it is still a sad sad day.
RIP Honorhammer, the best dwarf paladin I knew.
He said in a previous post that his guild, or at least his raid core, was going to transfer to Horde when faction transfers became available. And his preference was Guild/Crew over Toon, hence the transfer.

/gratz!
Muhahah, you have come over to the dark side!
Now let's go kill some Dwarves... just kidding!
Tell us more about this change. Did the whole guild swap to horde? why?
Anyway, enjoy it!
For the Horde!
I'll still read your blog though! :)
Trust me you'll come to hate Garrosh just as much as you did when you were Alliance.
You will have to let us know what difference you all were seeking with a faction transfer when raiding was your only priority and doesn't seem to matter which faction you are on when it comes to raiding, unless you need more numbers. At least your Tier Gear will look more bad ass as horde, only thing i can say looks better is that they look more aggressive in their T9 than we do.
Alas it is a sad day, the light has lost a great ally to the darkside and now must be hunted with the rest of the Sith....er Horde lol:P
