While I did not start the blog with the hopes of becoming the next Wow.com or even to the readership level of fellow DK blogger Death Goddess, I've come to face that no one reads this blog. The fact of it is really that I feel the DK blogging community is rather extensive and perhaps over saturated. I'm not bitter about it. It's a fact of playing the new class for an expansion. I'm not sure but I would be willing to venture that during The Burning Crusade content, the amount of Blood Elf Paladin blogs were high. Same for Draenei Shamans.
In the amount of time since I've starting writing here, I've seen many changes come about for Valoren and his state in the world. The biggest one being the departure from the Razorbacks, joining AWOL, and becoming the main tank for the Friday night ICC10. Now, even that has changed. Not only will I be the MT for this run (which is moving to Thursdays to allow for a continuation on Fridays), I will also be the Raid Leader. This is due to the fact that we have a large military presence in the guild and there is a deployment of some of them to Afghanistan. One of the non military guild leaders has approached me and asked me to lead this run, at least until they return. This will be at least a year. The main reason I decided to start this blog was for a writing outlet for me. It's often said "Write what you know", and I know World of Warcraft, so why not write about it? I've enjoyed writing and doing research for my posts. I digress...
I've come to realize that no one reads my blog. Perhaps it's because I don't market it really. I'm new to this and don't really know how to do that. Maybe my writing is boring. Maybe I'm adding further saturation to an already large pool of DK blogs. Whatever the case is, I'm shutting down this blog until at least Cataclysm. The reason for this is because Death Knights will be getting a large overhaul in our tanking mechanics with the reevaluation of the Rune system as well as the consolidation of tanking to the Blood tree. Cataclysm represents a rebirth of Azeroth and a wave of changes to the game as a whole. When this happens, you can bet that I'll be in the thick of it, tanking and figuring it all out again and posting my results.
Until the world is wrought with destruction and anarchy with the reemergence of Deathwing, I bid you all farewell. Keep up the good fight.
