(with kids!) I felt like many people I'm sure, a bond to you and owed much of my understanding of the game and class to you. The fact u had the personality to make it sound funny and accessible was the icing on the cake! I compeletley respect ur chioce to spend time with ur son, as family is THE most important thing. Yet as its clear to me u have so much talent and so much to give to the wow community its good to have you back in whatever form. /wave from me here in London.. WB :) Daniel,

Yes, I’m trying the WoW Friends and Family Alpha. BRKworgen and BRKgoblin are running amok. 2. No, I’m not going to violate the Non-Disclosure Agreement." You did break the NDA by actually mentioning that you're in the alpha. “1. Yes, I’m trying the WoW Friends and Family Alpha. BRKworgen and BRKgoblin are running amok.

2. No, I’m not going to violate the Non-Disclosure Agreement.”

NOOOOoooo, honestly I and everyone else here would love to get us a little BRK, regardless of what that may mean. YESSSSS, we are selfish, we miss BRK, we miss everything that is the BIG GAME HUNTER represents!!! You know one of the pinnacle of things in Wrath would have been to see BRK standing proudly on top of the Frozen Throne with LK under his boots and Hobbes proudly beside him with a juicy Horror's bone in his jaw. Beside, I'm just annoyed with all the hunters out there without someone to teach them to not face/pet/threat pull on Festgut/Rotface. It never fails whenever my guild goes into ICC25 each week to have some hunter (we have 5) who would rotate being the HUNTARD.

You may not know me, but I'm one of those dirty paladin's who have been following you for a long time now. Keep up the good work, and keep up the family life. I have learned how to balance WoW and family, well not really balance, as the family gets a HUGE amount of that scale, but it is always important to keep things in moderation. I look forward to see what you come up with though, as I loved reading everything you did, and even created a dwarf BM hunter a while back in your honor, and love playing him.

As an "internet celebrity" of sorts, I'm sure you strive to keep your personal life out of it as much as possible, but every now and then, there is a small peek, which is usually out of context and leads people to speculate. I think everyone who sends you feedback is a big fan of yours, and I'm sure wants your home life to be just as awesome as your online persona. So yeah, keep your private life private as it should be. Good luck Daniel, I hope you have a great time in the alpha. Are we going to hear about it one things go into beta? Will you be in the beta as well?
