Blizzard frustrates me

Warning: Rant ahead!!!

WoW patch days are horrible. Blizzard needs to improve their test scenarios. I hit 5 bugs in less than 2 minutes after getting online last night.

My main server was never stable. 10 minutes to get character list. I lost my frostsaber tiger mount due to a new feature.

I got a bit obsessed and ended up building twelve computers in a little under three years--lol I just like the building process. I have that same arctic cooling cpu cooler on my AMD5400+ black processor- its one of the best buys I ever made, cool and quiet. CPU runs around 33-34C. But, its kind of wasted, I thought I was going to be a gamer at one point but lost interest. So my tower ended up as sort of a glorified web surfer-lol I thnk the computer building bug kinda came form the fact i used to be a musclecar junkie waay back in the day and like to tinker.
