FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF GNOMES
Gnomeregan Exiles reputation makes me want to cry, y'all. I just look at that and am like "There is not enough runecloth in the ENTIRE WORLD." Right now it would be about 54 runecloth turn-ins to get in the general vicinity of exalted. That is 1080 RUNECLOTH. THAT IS A LOT OF RUNECLOTH. Note that this would not be a problem had I realized that the dark whelpling that dropped for me while I was questing in the Badlands goes for like 3000 gold. If I had realized that, I could have just bought all the runecloth in the world and MOVED ON WITH MY LIFE. But noooooo, I was all "omg, look at the cute widdle dwagon, must have!!!!"
As it is, I'm kind of looking at my quests completed, and noticing I'm at 431/700 for Loremaster of Eastern Kingdoms, and, you know, wondering if plowing through Redridge, what's left of my Duskwood questing, and the whole Hillsbrad/Arathi/Alterac region for spillover rep might be somehow less painful. Look, I realize that I can get Exalted with the gnomes fairly easily once I hit like 77 and spend a few weeks doing the Exodar dailies, and then choose the Gnomes after that, but I was really hoping I could get Ambassador before I hit Outland. :(
I mean, I did the drunken gnome quests in Darkshore. I did the gnome quests from Ironforge that send you to Felwood and Un'Goro to get ooze samples. I did the random quest you get in Stormwind from a human that sends you to Stonetalon, and ends up giving Gnome rep as well. Do the gnome quests in Shimmering Flats give rep? I was given to understand they are largely money quests that might not even give XP. Are there any gnome quests I am definitely forgetting? If I could cut down my runecloth turn-ins even a little I would feel so much less frustrated with this process.
On the plus side, I spent last night getting a troll shaman up to level 7, and I kind of like it. Unfortunately, I have NO IDEA if I'm going to level her as elemental, enhancement, or restoration because they all sound like SO MUCH FUN. And I'm going to have to look up some macros/work on keybindings/study up on the whole "totems" thing. (I'm also kind of amused because my Horde-side character list right now is like "belf holy pally, troll shaman, troll mage, and one day I will have a troll druid too! And maybe try a goblin warlock." I LIKE GREEN PEOPLE OKAY.) [edit: Also! I did the Tiragarde Keep quest today on said level 7 troll shaman, and THAT SHIT WAS HARD. But I pulled it off. Mostly because I really really lucked out in that the second time I got a Health Low warning, and my heal was on cooldown, it was exactly the same time Benedict and the Marine who'd been wailing on me decided to run away in fear. So I healed while they ran around and then realized I'd cleaned out the keep before I'd come in to get them. SO HARD. OH MY GOD I AM SO GLAD I DID NOT TRY THAT SHIT ON MY MAGE FIRST.]
Also, I am now friendly with the Timbermaw, heck yeah! Somehow, that rep grind (and Argent Dawn) depresses me less than gnome rep.

haunted is amazing! I am missing a bunch of gnome quests from Stonetalon Mountains! [And there's about 750 Gnome rep from a BRD questline I can pick up if I go to Burning Steppes. And then, um. Do the quests.]
