One serious WoW player!

[griffin]

Saw this today, and knew there were some gamers here who might be interested (or already know about it).
Some guy has set up 11 computers to generate and control a squad of up to 36 characters in the online World of Warcraft game.
That's some serious time wastage and a lot of money spent on hardware that probably wouldn't see much other use outside of gaming.
Wouldn't be surprised if he had a mini-bar fridge and bed-pan/bottle for the hours/days he probably spends gaming.
http://www.joystiq.com/2008/10/12/one-wow-player-controls-36-characters-simultaneously/
I'm not knocking someone having fun, but I think if you have that much time invested into something (hours spent gaming), you would want to have something to show for it that others can see. Otherwise, what has their life amounted to?

[jacksplatt11]

Yep I read about this a little while ago, there has to be better things to do with your time and money than have 36 WoW accounts.. like buy TFs haha..

The other day we had to do a group talk for a class and our group chose the topic "Gaming Addictions"... This guy was an example haha

[hotaru_oz]

Jesus christ that guy needs a life.
I love WoW but there's no way I would invest that much $$$ and have 36 accounts though.
I'm happy with just the one ^^

[kup]

I guess he has no problem when Looking For Groups :)

[GoktimusPrime]

...ya... it's not just time (which is an important thing) but also money... where would have find the time and money to socialise? $5,711 annual subscription and $1,500 for the expansion (and that's USD too)... forget dining out with your friends (or a date!) at a restaurant and catching a movie in the cinemas... as per liegeprime's sig pic, he'll be living off instant noodles!! (O_o)

I know some people who have similar set ups to this - not quite as extreme, but they do have multi computer rigs with a massive mainframe in their house. Lessee... their bath-tub was full of toilet paper rolls and the kitchen was full of pizza boxes... I don't think anyone had ever actually cooked anything in that kitchen.

Toy collecting is an expensive hobby, but it isn't necessarily as time-demanding as gaming.

But on the other hand, at least he's enjoying the money he's spending I suppose. I saw an episode of Simpsons last night where Bart took up coin collecting and he and Homer finally acquired a really rare Kissing Lincoln coin - only to stick in an album and put it on a shelf never to be seen again. Reminds me of people who buy Transformers, stick them in a box and shove it in storage seldom to be seen again. That's why I like displaying and playing with my toys as much as possible - I wanna get my money's worth damnit!!

[Pulse]

Man, that guy needs alot of help... :rolleyes: (but I'm afraid he may be a lost cause :D)

[hotaru_oz]

I'd hate to see what he's like when the server is down for maitenance.

[Saintly]

this is addiction at its best!

[Golden Phoenix]

God I wish I had enough time to do that. I'm not saying I would use my time to do that, but I would still like to have that free time.

I read he was planning to raid one of the cities or something

[1orion2many]

:)I figured I'd put my question here instead of starting another thread, could anyone recommend a Realm for me to start on WoW. I finally bit the bullet and bought the first WoW to give it a go, I'm not a big fan of online gaming mainly because of some of the idiots you have to put up with. I'm not interested in PvP realms either. Any help would be appreciated.:D

[blackie]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO orion

DONT DO IT
ITS MORE ADDICTIVE THAN TF's AND LEGO

[1orion2many]

:rolleyes:All I've managed to do so far is download things, not much excitement there:D. Don't worry blackie you just need self control which means being a TF collector I have absolutely none:D.

[1orion2many]

:eek:2.6G download, give me a break. Your not actually meant to play this game are you, it's just all down loads:rolleyes:.

[kup]

Depends what type of gamer you are.

- Are you Player vs Player sort of guy or a Player vs Environment?

- Are you into Role Playing?

I have not played WoW in over two years and have huge issues with its form of Gameplay and reinterpretation of the Traditional Warcraft lore but I have been sent a 10 day trial that includes the expansions. I am tempted to use it since I have never seen the expansion areas.

[1orion2many]

Player vs Environment, can't be bothered with other Players trying to kill me all the time.

Here are the Australian PvE servers:

Normal
-----------
Caelestrasz
Khaz'goroth
Nagrand
Aman'thul
Dath'remar

Always best to use Australian assigned servers. They are still based in the US but at least the timezone is Sydney based. Before Australian assigned servers I played in an American one and it was a pain. When I played everyone was asleep so finding groups or guild mates online was a frustrating.

If memory serves me right, I have a character in Khaz'goroth.

[1orion2many]

:)Thanks Kup, I'll set up a character in Khaz'goroth in case you decide you want to start playing again. I'm more than likely going to set up either a Dwarf or Human Paladin. Thought about a Warrior but changed my mind. If I like it I may try making a dwarf hunter as well.:)

[Eruntalon]

On the subject of WoW, I had to drive my younger sister to the shopping center last night so she could attend the EB midnight release party for the latest WoW expansion. The amount of freaky people similar to those I used to see from my past life was incredible. The different social groups and ages I saw leaving and entering the place was very diverse. It just goes to show you the influence of MMO's on society.

[valkyrie_76]

Heh stuff WoW.....I play Flyff (Im a cheap bugger)

[1orion2many]

:confused:What's a Flyff:confused:. Sounds like a disease:D.

[hotaru_oz]

it's probably one of those free mmo's that's floating around the net.


NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO orion

DONT DO IT
ITS MORE ADDICTIVE THAN TF's AND LEGO

Lol it's not that addictive, speaking of WoW I'm going to go pick up my copy of the new expansion ^^

[1orion2many]

:rolleyes:24 hours later and I'm still downloading, haven't even created a character yet:eek:. Should I even ask what level your character is at Hotaru:o.

[1orion2many]

:rolleyes:I had to wait to be able to start as there was a line to get on the realm Kup mentioned and when i finally did I was told the create character was disabled because it was peak time:mad:. I'm off to the gym to work out my frustrations:cool:.

[hotaru_oz]

I hate when that happens, D'ath Remar isn't as bad I hear, that's the server I'm on.
if you're curious Orion I have a lvl 51 Night elf Rogue ^^

[loophole]

I played City of Villians on and off for about 2 years and absolutely loved playing but just dont have the time for it anymore :( oh and i played a trial of WoW all i can say is City of Villians is waaaaay better, cause all you do is walk in WoW. I have heard that WAR is meant to be pretty good.

[hotaru_oz]

well you'll be walking until you get your mount, there's also portals, boats and flying mounts to help, you don't always have to walk.
I've never played City of Villians before, should give it a go

[Borgeman]

just wanted to give everyone some reading:

i work at EB games, and was working at the midnight launch, at the store that had the most orders in the state (werribee, 524 orders), and possibly the country...

so anyway, we opened at 10 to allow ppl to prepay their game, and get a ticket for the line later. just before midnight we held a raffle, and some ppl scored some tees, with one dude winning one of the giant promo posters - i was the megaphone for the evening :)

anywho our mob was well behaved - we handed out 212 tickets before midight (but close to 300 ppl there), and sold abt 300 games last night too, and we served everyone within 45 minutes after launch.

but yes a very hectic 2 days at work for myself, having worked from thursday 10am-6pm, then 10pm-2am, then followed it up today 8am-6pm - im a bit tired as i write this :/

btw, wow sucks :D

[Pulse]

What too much WOW can do to you... (http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=668081)

[Gutsman Heavy]

its not like he died, amateur.

:rolleyes:I had to wait to be able to start as there was a line to get on the realm Kup mentioned and when i finally did I was told the create character was disabled because it was peak time:mad:. I'm off to the gym to work out my frustrations:cool:.

wow, that's surprising. Seems like it has become a lot more crowded than it was 2 years ago.

[1orion2many]

I hate when that happens, D'ath Remar isn't as bad I hear, that's the server I'm on.
if you're curious Orion I have a lvl 51 Night elf Rogue ^^

:)Once I figure out what I'm doing I might create a character on your server Hotaru:D.

[Gutsman Heavy]

I'm on Dath'Remar too, its got plenty of people, but don't join the alliance! they are lame! go Horde! Orcs, trolls & Minotaur FTW

[kup]

A friend of mine has convinced me to go back to the game. He says that Lich King has fixed much of the stuff I hated about the base game and that they are going back to the roots of what made warcraft good and moves away from the Space smurfs lore that I hated.

I am downloading the client now since my one is massively obsolete.

[hotaru_oz]

I'm on Dath'Remar too, its got plenty of people, but don't join the alliance! they are lame! go Horde! Orcs, trolls & Minotaur FTW

Ah the horde which reminds me I have an Undead Mage and a Blood elf Warlock I need level up ^^

[1orion2many]

I'm on Dath'Remar too, its got plenty of people, but don't join the alliance! they are lame! go Horde! Orcs, trolls & Minotaur FTW

:)I always prefer what is considered the side of good, you must be an evil Decepticon in disguise Gutsman:eek::p:D. I haven't managed to go back on since the first time but will be giving it a hit tonight hopefully, I've been playing Fable 2 on Xbox 360 instead:o.

[Gutsman Heavy]

well if you want good Horde it is!

The Alliance are racists! read the lore, they send the night elves into battle as operation elven shield, and the rest as operation get behind the darkies.

Ok be alliance (boo!) but don't be human (how bland!)

[1orion2many]

:)No I'm a Dwarf Paladin, starting to get harder to level up:rolleyes:. I think I'm being sucked in:o. For those that watch Southpark, "MAM, MAM, TOILET MAM":D.

[Gutsman Heavy]

ah yes the humble pally, I pay a Blood Elf Pally, spec in ret and destroy all!*


*except Death Knights, Shaman and probably hunters.

[1orion2many]

I haven't got any of the expansions yet as I'm still learning the basics like how do you whisper:o. I haven't even teamed with anyone really except for one guy with a Dwarf hunter, that was alright as he hung back while I hammered away:D. My 2 trades are Mining and Blacksmith, Mining is going alright but blacksmithing is going nowhere. I haven't really found any place I can start at a basic level of smithing to get my skill level up, I think I need to look around a bit more:rolleyes:. I did get invited to a guild the other day but declined, is there any reason to join a guild, as you can see I haven't RTFM (read the flippin manual:o).

[Gutsman Heavy]

are you on a trial or full account?

I only use mining, a good source of cash. I couldn't keep my blacksmithing up to match my level, so I stopped after lvl20. Make sure you have 'find minerals' activated so you can see ore nodes on your mini map, most towns will have a forge to smelt at.

Guilds are good for having a lot of players at your disposal but are mostly organising for instanced dungeons, raids or PVP.

[1orion2many]

:oFull account, I went those 2 options as it's just how I see a Dwarf, both mining and smithing. I didn't want my dwarf picking flowers in the snow:o. I just haven't found where I need to go to start at a low level of smithing, the lowest item to smith where I am at the moment is smithing level 15, I of course am sitting on level 1 wanting to increase my level which can't be done until I find a Smithy that teaches level one smithing items. It's a vicious circle at the moment. While I'm grizzling a big hairy snowbeast killed me last night:rolleyes:, I shall try and get my revenge tonight or learn how to run away.:D

[kup]

Sorry, I played it for a while and it only served to remind me why I left in the first place so I quit again.

I can't believe that I spend two years playing it as MMOS are not for me. I hope you enjoy it however as a lot of people seem to.

[hotaru_oz]

Guilds are pretty useful if you need help with quests and pvp raids ^^
I'm in a newly formed guild myself, you're welcome to join if you wish :)

you should already have the low level smith skills, be sure to open your spell book (P) and select the smelting option in the general tab

[1orion2many]

Thanks Hotaru, I'll have to transfer my dwarf over to the same realm as you or create a new character:o.

Thanks for the tip Gutsman, I'm such a Noob:o. Some peanut challenged me to a duel last night, Level 11 dwarf Palidin against a level 58 something, I may be a Noob but I'm not stoopid:rolleyes:.

[hotaru_oz]

Cool since character transfers are free at the moment, it shouldn't be a problem ^^
Just let me know your character's name and I'll send you a guild invite. My guild is known as Lords of Normality,

in other news my Rogue finally hit lvl 52 last night w00t 3 more levels and I can create a death knight. Question is what race should I make mine?

[1orion2many]

How about a Minotaur(I don't think that's what they are called on WOW):)

[hotaru_oz]

there caled Taurens, I've been meaning to create one, it was either that or a Gnome becaus theyre so cute.

[1orion2many]

:DThe Gnomes are like Rats, they are evrywhere:D.

[hotaru_oz]

I know :D but rats can be cute too

[Gutsman Heavy]

the transfers are only free to one specific realm, if you want to jump to say Dath'Remar, it'll cost you $25 USD

Just got my Blood Elf Pally to 71 :)

[1orion2many]

:)I'm only level 12 and yes I tried the transfer last night only to find out it was only to one realm that has low numbers:rolleyes:. I did get my smithing skills to where I wanted and made some armour, the good thing is it's better than what I am wearing so off with the old and on with the new:D, Oh and that big hairy snowbeast killed me again:(. Some passing players threw a couple off spells on me which increased both my attacking ability and armour so I thought I'd go have another go, that was a mistake:o. I'll most probably transfer my character in a couple of weeks once I sort out some bills but untill then I'll try and keep levelling up:cool:.

[Gutsman Heavy]

once you get the hang of it you'd be surprised how fast you can level, I got my paladin to 40 in 4 days, and this was before they doubled the xp you get from quests.

[1orion2many]

:oI'm too lazy:D. I'm on holidays as of the 19th of December so I'll be putting a few hours in then to crank up Splurgle:cool:, this is of course if the boss will let me:o.

[hotaru_oz]

I went to play it last night and found it down for maitenance ><
I'm almost lvl 53 XD

[genechan]

I was playing until my laptop's screen decided to die on me >.> NEVER BUY LENOVO!

[hotaru_oz]

I know ><
you have to come back on

[1orion2many]

Level 16 and still puttering along:o.

[hotaru_oz]

sigh I just get my net back on and I log onto WoW only to have the server to shut down on me :(

[1orion2many]

:(Yes this is the second time I've been dumped in the last 2 weeks and it's always what I would consider peak play time for people here in the West:(.

[hotaru_oz]

I hate that :(
but I managed to play for awhile last night and work my way up to lvl 53
2 more levels and I gets a death knight.

[1orion2many]

:)I'm up to level 25:D. Yes it's a slow old plod with me but I have limited time unfortunately:rolleyes:. Holidays soon so hopefully I'll crank the little fella's levels up during this time:D.

[hotaru_oz]

after much grinding I have made it to lvl 55 ^^ now I can create a death knight, but I might wait till my rogue hits 80

[Gutsman Heavy]

at least do the DK starting zone, it rocks!

[hotaru_oz]

Yeah I'm tempted to, a couple of guild buddies are encouraging me to do so ^^

[hotaru_oz]

I caved and created a death knight last knight and I am loving it ^^

[1orion2many]

I only have to buy both the expansions first, then by the sounds of it get my Dwarf up another 26 levels before I can create a deathknight. That could take forever the way I plod around:rolleyes:. Joined a guild the other day, some of the dungeons are a lot easier with a friend:D.

[1orion2many]

:)Hotaru what race did you end up going for your deathknight:confused:. I've finally got a guild friend that's going to do a couple of dungeons with me tonight and best of all he's from Perth so we are on the same time:D. I finally hit level 30 and got a horse YEAH! My poor little stumpy dwarf legs were getting worn out:D, I looked at training for a Ram but it was going to cost 9G and you needed level 75 in riding skill. I take it I would have to get rid of one of my other 2 skills to be able to get my riding skills up:confused:.

NO! riding isn't a profession, so you cant get it with out losing anything (except cash)

[1orion2many]

:)WOOHOO! :D

[1orion2many]

Less than 1 hour and they shut down again:mad:, this is getting annoyingly repetitive.:(.

[Gutsman Heavy]

hehe, not a problem since I work tues night :D

BTW get used to it, weekly maintenance FTL

[1orion2many]

:(Yes but Tuesday nights which is my night home to kill beasties:(, I was half way through a dungeon when it closed last night.:rolleyes:.

[hotaru_oz]

My death knight is a human, I thought I'd spice up an already boring race, she's currently lvl 57.
I'd try and play her more but I'm trying to grind to lvl 60 with my Rogue.

[1orion2many]

:)I'm pretty slow at levelling up:rolleyes:, I thought about changing my characters name the other night after I got absoloutely trounced in a PvP area the Aruthi basin:o. Talk about a disorganised rabble, they all ran off towards the horde opposition with no plan and boy did we get killed in droves:D. I think 5 times in a row I died, because no one would team up together on the alliance side:rolleyes:, I'm going to see if my guild brothers will help me out with this one, hopefully a couple of high level characters will join up as there wasn't much hope for my level 30 character:o. OH! I was going to change my characters name to cactus because that's what I was in that game:D.

[hotaru_oz]

Same my Rogue hit a brick wall at 50, but because I took such a long hiatus from WoW I have yet to fill my blue experience bar, so I'm getting double the experience than usual :D
She hit 57 this morning and I'm nearly 58 ^^ Outland here I come ^^

EDIT:

Ding!

[1orion2many]

:eek:AHHHH! So the longer your off the board the longer that double the experience points last, is that correct Hotaru:confused:.

[Golden Phoenix]

:eek:AHHHH! So the longer your off the board the longer that double the experience points last, is that correct Hotaru:confused:.

I thought it was that it builds up as you aren't on (faster if you are logged off while at a tavern or city or something) It then winds down as you gain exp

[1orion2many]

:oBoy did I spend a lot of time on this beast of a game:o. I still don't level up fast because I dawdle around trying to get my 2 skills up, 2 weeks on Holiday and my Dwarf Pali is now level 46:D. I dropped out of the Aruthi basin the other day when my server had problems so when I managed to log back in it was to the entrance of this area, unfortunately a couple of high level characters were at this point in time attacking the area, because I had dropped out of the basin my alliance insignia was still alight, boy did they give me a flogging, about 4-5 times in a row they killed me, every time I resurrected the rotten sods were right there to kill me lol.

[1orion2many]

:)To keep the insanity going I am now level 52, I am hoping to go up 1 or 2 levels tonight as I have been a bit slack with playing as of late(Spouse abusal:D, she keeps complaining she's a WOW Widow lol).

[hotaru_oz]

yeah the longer you're offline, the longer your bar stays blue and a blue bar means double thye EXP.
It also helps to log off in Inns and Taverns especially the one set as your home.
I was once offline for 6 months and my bar was blue for 8 months lol.
I've been doing some serious grinding lately and am now almost lvl 68. I'm going to wait til I'm lvl 70 before I explore Northrend ^^

[1orion2many]

:oI must be spending to much time on WOW, I'm catching up Hotaru. My Pali should hit 57 tonight. I went into blackrock last night and boy did my pali cope it:eek:. 1 on 1 was fine but it doesn't stay that way for long lol. Went in with 3 others, one being level 80. Being the only healer I was meant to stay out of attack range and just heal, doesn't always work though because I seemed to get attacked shortly after healing someone:rolleyes:. I'm tooled up in Retribution anyway so healing is just a side hobby for my Pali:D. I quest with one person on a regular basis, we were both broke (characters that is) when we found a sword(purple) and put it up on the auction house. We ended up with 115G's each, this has been put aside to tool up my DK when I make one;). Not sure which race yet but will decide in the next week or so, might go human or Dranei:cool:.

Do u guys log on often? i Feel like reactivating my account...its no fun playing alone..tought might join u guys instead

[Gutsman Heavy]

Half way to 77, winter flying here I come!

[E|dan]

i got a 60 hunter..but i just dn wanna play alone..stopped before TBC and now WOTLK is out..i feel like playing again >.< anyone wanna power lvl me? :P

[1orion2many]

What area are you in, I'm in Khaz Goroth. I have 2 other people I normally hook up with. One Warrior and one Hunter, with me being a Pali we do have a little variety:D. My characters name is Splurtle so if your on the same server you should be able to see me online.;)

[E|dan]

im thinking of starting a whole new character again..like starting a new..im in stormscale server ....so.. >.<

[1orion2many]

Hi Eldan, if you start a new character in Khaz Goroth I can join you up to my guild and help you with dungeon runs to level. 62 now and no that is not my age :D, Level 78 ran me through Ramparts 3 times to level me up, also picked up a heap of gear, unfortunately it wasn't until afterwards that I checked it to see most of it didn't spec up but the weapon I picked up went well past what I was using:cool:.

[E|dan]

hmm.... im still 50/50 on playing..the last time i played..i got so hooked to this game that i lost touched on the world and my laptop almost exploded >.<
im contemplating!!..lol

[hotaru_oz]

I'm almost lvl 70 now, I can't believe I managed to survive without WoW for the last 2 weeks :)
I'm on D'ath Remar if you want to join me Eldan

[E|dan]

only 2 people play wow in this forum? we should start an otca guild :P

[1orion2many]

:oTakes up a lot of time I must admit but it's enjoyable. You just need to set time limits on yourself and still live your regular life but I admit I can get lost in this game it really does suck you in :eek:. Anyone know how to set up a guild then:confused:.

[E|dan]

u need 6 people i think to sign a guild charter and start a guild..but we need in game experience to lead for raids..if not there would be no point.. >.< and yes this is like a drug!! the addiction is baaaaaad..

[Gutsman Heavy]

79 now... must get to 80...

[E|dan]

lets all play on the same server :P

[Gutsman Heavy]

join Dath'Remar and we will be.

[1orion2many]

:(My night of do nothing and they still insist on a Tuesday night shutdown, you'd think they'd work around me:D.

[hotaru_oz]

I know :( I was almost lvl 70 when the server shut down.

[1orion2many]

:)I was in Hellfire and needed 8000XP for levelling to 63 so I ran to kill something, my friend dropped out of the group and let me get first hits in and then helped me kill, because of the first hits I got alll the Xp because she wasn't in a group with me and Ding levelled with about 1 1/2 minutes left which gave me just enough time to park my dwarf butt in an inn for better doubling:D.

[1orion2many]

I might buy The Frozen Throne tonight if it's on special at EB so I can make my DK, well that and give me the ability to take Pali to level 80:D.

[hotaru_oz]

Frozen Throne? I think you mean Wrath of the Lich King lol

[1orion2many]

:DI was close, at least it was warcraft:o:D.

[E|dan]

get it from toys r us...its the cheapest ive seen...only 50 dollars the rest like eb is selling at 60

[1orion2many]

:(I've been flogging along trying to get my epic mount, stupid pali epic. Money hasn't been the issue but everytime I think I'm there I have to do another Q:eek:, other classes just ahve to pay the G from what I can tell:rolleyes:. I'm hoping I'm finally on my last quest to imbue my barding with the equine spirit(stupid horse ghost:p). Tonight maybe tonight, all depends if I can get a couple of people down Diremaul with me as this is where my last quest is(I hope). I'm hoping EB will have a sale soon then they either take off $20 or put it down to half price:).

[Gutsman Heavy]

god I NEED epic flying!

sooo slow :(

[1orion2many]

:(I'm still questing for my stupid epic, give me a break:rolleyes:. I did find out I need to get another 510G up to do horse riding journeyman:eek:, I've forked out 350G already :(, I am now questing strictly for gold, I have given up on levelling until I get my Epic:o.

[Gutsman Heavy]

pff, I need to dig up 5200g for mine!

[1orion2many]

pff, I need to dig up 5200g for mine!

:)Things are looking good after you saying that:D:D:D

[hotaru_oz]

I'm still saving for my flight training I just managed to save 300g last night but I still got a while to go.

[1orion2many]

:confused:Is it Level 70 that you need to be to learn flight training?

[Gutsman Heavy]

yes, but since you can't fly in Northrend untill 77, there isn't much point getting it at 70.

[Gutsman Heavy]

lvl 80 bitches!

[E|dan]

[Gutsman Heavy]

[1orion2many]

[hotaru_oz]

OMFG!

600g till epic flying...

[hotaru_oz]

I'm still saving for my first set of flight training, only 400g to go.

[1orion2many]

:oI've stopped questing at level 72 and haven't bothered with flying as my Goat seems faster:D, I'm concentrating on getting my Blacksmithing and Mining skills up, always good gold makers;):cool:.

[Gutsman Heavy]

After getting my epic flying I got bored of my Pally, so I made a priest, got to lvl 31 in 2&1/2 Hours. Top that!

[1orion2many]

:eek:How can you level so fast:eek:.

[hotaru_oz]

31 lvls in 2&1/2 hours!
I don't think I can top that.

[Gutsman Heavy]

:eek:How can you level so fast:eek:.

with zero skill but useful connections, my GF plays, I recruited her so I got the cool Zebra mount, but also it seems you can grant 1 lvl to each other for every 2 you lvl yourself, she was a lvl 50 when I made the priest, got him to lvl 6 and she gave me 25 lvls in 5 seconds. hehe.

Someone recently made a documentary about my last day of playing WoW a couple of years back:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQg04yR71JU

There are several minor facts wrong since they are from the persepctive of someone who I had met that same day and had no involvement. Eg: I left MMOs altogether that day, I didn't go to Everquest. WoW was really my first and last MMO.

[hotaru_oz]

I don't think I could ever play another mmo after playing WoW for so long.
I used to play Guild Wars alot but gave up because playing online with a dial up connection was a royal pain.

[1orion2many]

:oWOW is the only online game I play and it would be about the only game I play at the moment on anything:o:D. My wife says she is a wow widow:rolleyes:. Level 73 almost 74 :D, I had stopped levelling for a while to get my Blacksmithing skills up but started questing again last night, went in 1 instance by myself and lasted about 5 seconds lmao:rolleyes::D

[1orion2many]

:oI went in a 5 man arena the other day only to discover after helping kill all the beasties that I was one level too low to receive any rewards :eek::rolleyes::D. What a waste of time as the only reason I went in the arena was to get the reward of the axe, OH DOPEY ME :o
