I find camping the AH with a laptop is perfectly possible during the day, just leave it stuck somewhere the toddler cannot reach, and you can pop to it occasionally to check on prices, repost, etc.

In a mid 70′s pug this weekend some dps got two kid agros in a row and someone tried to vote kick them. Thankfully it did not pass. I said ‘kid agro happens’. They shup up about it and the rest of the run was smooth and had no afking.
random unexplained afk is one thing… but hey, if you have to go save a toddler or change a diaper, no problem. The other WOW parents got your back.

Oh my gosh, baby aggro is not nearly as bad as plant aggro. That thing needs to be watered so much. My life is rough.

I guess there are a lot more people with kids playing WOW. I can certainly relate to what has been said here. Would like to apologise to all the people in the LFD that wiped because I had to do something for my daughter ^^. Being a healer, a 15 second distraction can be huge at times ))

Puppy Aggro is getting me right now, but thankfully when I’m in a dungeon I’m tank or healz so people don’t mind waiting for 2 minutes while I clean up a mess.

Your Dwarfling is awfully cute and I bet you’ll find you won’t miss the hardcore raid time one little bit.

I love our weekend raid schedule: starts at 7 Friday and Saturday nights. Nomster usually lets us sleep til 8 on Saturday and Sundays so it works great!

Great post, Analogue! As a new father there are definitely some tips that I can take from that. The Dwarfling has been great so far, and I haven’t had to miss a raid yet.

I can certainly see that this may change as she gets older. My raid times are early at the moment, and that is probably going to have to turn into Dwarfling Tea Party time at some point. Then I’ll have to start a Bed Time Raiding Group so that we can kill Internet Dragons while the baby sleeps.

I showed my nephew this game when he was 6 and he became instantly fascinated with it. “Can we play the World of Warcraft game?”, is always the first thing that he asks when he comes visiting. I created a Night Elf hunter (his choice, not mine) for him and let him run all through the starting area killing stuff. He had a blast. Noobs are so cute when they’re that age.

Thanks for the link!

Four, huh! That sounds reasonable!
