You'd smack the whiskers off my muzzle, Kiara if you knew how I handled my quest log. As soon as a quest turns green, I delete it. I tend to work quests that are far beyond my current level but are still offered to me. Oranges and Reds mostly. Anything less and it probably has some sort of reward that I'm after or it isn't worth the time.
If there's a mob to fight involved, then I'll wait till it turns Yellow and then tackle it. My reasoning for this is survival. On a PvP server, if I'm doing an orange quest and I'm "interrupted" the enemy is usually too high of level to attack me or I can lead them in to a hostile mob, evac, and let the mob do the dirty work for me.
