Here are a few tips that can help to make your farming alittle more efficient.

1) Add-ons:

Most of you use all types of wow add-ons for one reason or another. Here are a few that as a Gatherbuddy user I could not live without!

Altoholic - This addon keeps track of all the toons on a account, along with bag/bank/gbank/ah/mail contents. If your like me and keep your AH toon on the same account as your farmer this can really come in handy.

AuctionLite - This is a small, lightweight auction manager. It will auto search prices of items and fill in min/max depending on how much you would like to undercut, it will also split stacks and post desired amounts. It does NOT keep prices catched! But if your like me and think auctioneer is way to bloated this is a great add-on.

Bagnon - Simple bag add-on that will merge all your bags/bank into 1 frame.

BankStack - This add-on has commands to stack, sort, and compress the items in your bags/bank/gbank. I toss the compress command into my GB macros to free up extra spaces while farming, and also use the compress and sort commands in the guild bank to free up space before a night of farming.

WhisperFu - Logs all of your your whispers, and has spam filters if you decide to use them. (does require FuBar)

Postal - Simple mailbox add-on that makes dealing with large amounts of mails go alot smoother.

2) Macros:

Good macros can make or break a good night of afk farming. There are a ton of class/spec macros on these forums. Here are a few general macros that I run and work great for me!

Hotkey #9 - 5 minute Interval's

This macro will combine all those Crystallized air, earth, fire, water, shadow, and life into eternals. This will free up alot of bag space and time! Some people like to add this on there mount macro (#1), but that has been known to cause problems and bugs. (Don't forget to edit the last line and add a 5 minute buff if needed.)

Code:
/use item:37700
/use item:37701
/use item:37702
/use item:37703
/use item:37704
/use item:37705
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear()
/cast 5_min_buff_goes_here!

Hotkey #0 - 15 Minute Interval's

This is where I add the /compress command for the add-on BankStack. Doing so will free up some bag space and let you spend your time more efficient. (Again don't forget to edit the last line and add your 15 minute buff if needed.)

Code:
/compress
/cast 15_min_buff_goes_here!

3) Coming Soon!

I have a few more items I would like to add to this but I'm tired and need sleep. Hope you can make some use of the subjects already covered.

Nothing denoted in your first point has anything to do with farming or it's efficiency.

add-on's and macro's can help you to save time = more time to farm per day = more efficient.

Simply put if you don't like my tips then don't read them.
 
Hey with WisperFu does it log them so even if wow logs off before I get home to see the wispers, does it save the logs even if GB logs me outa wow?

How will I know if I don't like your tips if I don't read them?

Correct, once you log back into wow you will see any whispers you got before wow closed.
