All Dressed Up and Nowhere To Go.

One of the concepts in World of Warcraft is improving one's reputation with factions. Examples of factions are "Ironforge", "Agent Dawn", and "The Thorium Brotherhood". Completing quests assigned by NPC's (non-player characters) can help improve one's reputation with any given faction.

I recently became "Honored" with the Thorium Brotherhood faction. This required turning in a TON -smile- of items. To move from "Friendly" to "Honored" requires completing the same quest 240 times! To complete a quest you have to move your mouse four times and click it four time. This is a good to get a repetitive motion injury. -frown- Regardless, although it doesn't take as long as it may sound, it is incredibly TEDIOUS. -smile-

Of course, the 'carrot' is if a player is honored they can buy cool stuff that they otherwise could not. But, guess what? The vendor who sells the cool stuff is buried deep inside a dungeon that a poor little weak Warlock toon, like mine, has no prayer of reaching safely unless accompanied by a team of SUPERTOON bodyguards.

Hence my comment about being all dressed up with nowhere to go. I'm honored with the Thorium Brotherhood, but can't take advantage of it until I am MANY levels higher.

I do appreciate my guild who generously gave to me much of the materials needed to complete this quest 240 times. But, I'm wondering if they did to induce me to level up more quickly, so I can get to that vendor. -big smile-
