When combined with my pants…I look like a stripper or like I belong on a corner rather than fighting for the Horde.

You say that like there aren’t plenty of Horde to fight on street corners!

One of the advantages of playing a caster, I suppose, is that robes seem to be less likely to have “plate bikini syndrome”.

I haven’t encountered the quest mentioned in this post, having followed a different leveling path. I’m actually a little surprised to see it, since Blizzard usually does a good job avoiding misogyny as you said. (Armor challenges aside.)

I agree that the players are far worse. I’m lucky that I have found a guild of mature adults who avoid the kind of talk that is so common in online games, but I run into it occasionally outside the guild. I make liberal use of my ignore list. =)

It’s too bad some hacker (is WoW exploitable?) doesn’t get in there and reprogram Keristrasza to be something less than a prisoner. “Raelorasz told you what? Do you know that motherfucker never went down on me once?”
