I Think That I May be in Love
I think that I’ve made it abundantly clear that I not only enjoy playing priests but I have no qualms in proclaiming my love of priests. I’m an unabashed priestaphiliac, having leveled numerous priests to 60 and one to 70. On the Feathermoon US roleplaying server I have three priests, one of each major tree. And I originally created this site in part to post information regarding my preferred class of World of Warcraft.
This all-consuming love extends beyond Vent, my raid’s and guild’s websites, and even this website; when people pose questions regarding priests on the server’s Trade channels, I’m usually one of the first priests to respond. This evening, following yet another foray to Mount Hyjal, that exact scenario occurred. A neophyte priestling was curious which stat favored priests more: Spirit or Intellect. In the twenty minutes that followed, me and two others discussed the benefits of both stats, why they were important, how to optimize the benefit from those stats, and our preferences regarding gear, gems, and enchants.
My joy of the evening, however, was further increased when not one, not two, but three other priestaphiles whispered me to thank me for my thoughts and share some of their own. For your benefit, I’ll post a short portion of one of those discussions.

Meet Mitsuomi, who enjoys longs walks along the Stranglethorn Vale beaches, the Forsaken, and priests. Furthermore, he has opened the discussion by mentioning my favorite priestly stat: Spirit. I exclaim my immediate delight in finding a kindred spirit.1 However, I prove my geekiness by admitting that I not only have a blog, but it’s about World of Warcraft and I actually ramble about Spirit and priests on a regular basis.

We continue discussing our love of Spirit and its importance in a post-2.4 mana regeneration system — until I am interrupted. Of course, this cannot stand. Priests are infinitely more important! The discussion must continue! And so, I blow him off to continue our talk and tying in my second favorite class: hunters.

Yes, yes, tell me more. Whisper more sweet nothin’s into my ear, baby. You know I love it when you talk about Spirit. I have no shame when it comes to you.
Unfortunately, our discussion had to end shortly thereafter since I did promise to play on the Horde. However, Mitsuomi’s words linger in my heart even now. I’ve got that nice warm and fuzzy feeling still!
