Only a couple weeks after Patch 3.08 Blizzard releases their “Fix” Patch, 3.09. Nothing terribly new or huge is in this patch nor did it cause any huge issues like its predecessor did.

First off let me warn you, the reader, that this is a bit of a vent post, and no I don’t mean it’s about Ventrilo. I intend to blow off some steam here to vent my frustrations I’ve been having since the now infamous within the WoW community, patch 3.08.
