		<description>Well I guess I&#039;m stuck on playing pink pigtailed gnomes then... :)

Actually I don&#039;t pick the blogs I read out of class. I read blogs that have shows personality, that sort of speaks to me in a voice I like. Blogs that represent different aspects of the game. On my blogroll you&#039;ll not just find mage blogs but a bunch of dedicated pala blogs, druid blogs and so on. If Blessing of Kings, for example suddenly switched his main from a pala to a shaman, so what? I like the way he writes, no matter if he&#039;s writing about pala stuff or anything else. I always learn something from it. He has branded Blessing of Kings to be something bigger than just a pala buff if you see. He can switch focus as much a he likes - I&#039;ll hang on to him anyway, trust me, as I will to all the other guys and girls on my blogroll. Actually some of you can even blog a bit about other games than WoW, about gaming in general - and I&#039;ll still read you!

You have branded your blogs by other means than just finding the perfect name and nieche. You&#039;ve branded it by working on it daily, by simply blogging in a honest way, from your heart, with personality and style. That goes a long way to, and overrides the class aspect, from my point of view. But maybe I&#039;m a bit odd in my broad taste for blogs?</description>

		<description>I have only recently joined the WoW bloggers, and I wish I had read this post before I ever reserved the domain. My by far favorite character is my protection warrior, and yet, I don&#039;t play her much at the moment. I mostly play my rogue and a little bit of druid. I will want to write about them, but will I hurt my fresh blog by writing about them? I don&#039;t know.

So far I am trying a balancing act by providing tank content specifically to give me leeway to post about alts now and then. At least I have no intention of fully changing to posting about any alts, but it&#039;s an interesting thought.

		<description>Great post, although I&#039;m a total offender.  That being said, I&#039;m not sure that I really have anything that useful to say, or that my blog has much of an audience to worry about.

And as a blog reader, I rarely visit a blog just to learn about the class.  I&#039;ve never played a priest, for example.  But I find the bloggers interesting, and across classes there is so much that happens in WOW that I can relate to.

That being said, I can see where a shift in focus could be weird for many readers (thinking BRK at the moment), and such changes would definitely have to be planned out.

Thanks for a great post as always.  Love the site...

		<description>IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ve wrestled with my blogs focus a little bit over time. I started it because I didnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t have anywhere I could talk about the game and my experience with it. So, my blog started out as a wow diary where I could talk about what was on my mind. 

Fairly quickly this developed into what I thought about my main class and spec. I also noticed there were very few resources out there to help moonkin make the correct choices. So my blog has become more of a Moonkin help site.

I wonder if I am boring people with my non-moonkin stuff that are looking for help, and I worry that others write me off because they donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t care about moonkin. Plus most of my traffic comes from my Kara gearing guide and I worry that I would get no traffic if I stopped my moonkin posts.

The truce that I have struck with myself is that I write what matters to me. (Gray Matter. Get it?) Since I care about moonkin then I will write about moonkin.

If I decide to make my Spriest my main or to stop talking about my moonkin then I have to deal with the consequences. But that shouldnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t matter. I do it for the out let, and I donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t have many readers anyway.
