Okay, Im not going to a complete idiot (despite that being forte) and say something along the lines of "Hey guys, ever heard of It?" as I guess rather wisely (and with much chin rubbing) that you all have, and indeed that some of y'all play it.

So lets discuss this game that has consumed more lives than Xantar has of annoying mis-spellers (aw crap, is that even a word?)

I play on the Blades Edge forum over on the European servers, and occasionally dally onto the Argent Dawn RP server, mostly just to watch (and always to laugh)

My main is a lvl 36 Female Human Paladin by the name of Roulette, and Im completely taking the MMO part out of the game. I decided early on that I wasn't going to guild with anyone until lvl 70 and I absolutely hate grouping with people. About the only MMO part that I actually do is the occasional battleground and auctioning on the AH. So far its worked quite well, I managed to solo Shadowfang Keep and (most of) the Deadmines myself, mainly by just playing smart.

And have any of you(that play that is) ever been on to the RP servers? Have you ever been as amused as I am?

The greatest part of an RP server is the weird crap that people come up with, for instance: The tauren who was permanately shapeshifted to look like a gnome, vampires that are impervious to light, holy water and any injury whatsoever and a hemaphrodite orc.

The orc was at least the more rational player I RP'd with.

So...do you have any interest in necrophilia?

Early on when I started playing the RP was decent. Before the Belfs. I used to enjoy it, but I was too young to do it well (I started playing when I was like 16 or so. So I've been playing for about four years or so.). It also depends on the server. Some are much more serious than others. As far as RP goes anyhow. But now the Belfs are there, and while I enjoy being pretty as much as anybody else, they turned all of the RP into mindless ERP. There was a server I played on where the Belf RP was taken very seriously and it was quite good. It was when the expansion first came out.

Anyway, my highest toon was a Nelf 62 Hunter. I love him. I also have a fifty something Nelf Druid and a 40 Orc Hunter. I don't play anymore, I grew tired of it. It's really an off and on game for me, I play for months on end, then I stop and don't play for half a year and then pick it back up again. This time I've dropped it because I have a girl and I have a job and I go to the gym. It's tough to fit WoW in between. And also I didn't have money or time to waste on the new expansion so there was really no point in playing since both my cousins who compose my questing team got the expansion and were playing Death Knights and shit.

My one cousin who is about my age is truly obsessed with the game. I'm trying to wean him off a bit because it's not healthy. But he has about three level eighties and he was the second person to get his Death Knight to level 80 on his server. The other guy only won because he had friends playing for him while he slept. Ingenius really, but my cousin doesn't pussy out like that.

Fun game though, I just hate end game shit. I don't have time for ten hour raids. Waste of my time. I enjoy making new characters and getting them to about fifty, then I lose interest. I have about ten level thirties and twenty level twenties haha.

Xantar: And for your information, I didn't call on any minions. They got into this on their own, and they seem to be having a blast.

Marci: Screw you too, I'm not your minion.

Xantar: Also, Makokam is not my minion. Just thought I'd point that out.

Level 74 Female Human pally named Shadeli. I need to fucking get to 80 so my guild has another tank. Speaking of which, I'm a fucking awesome tank.

Level 54 Female Draenei Hunter for farming use should she ever reach 80.

Level 43 male Belf Pally. My guild rolled alts hordeside so I joined, he doesn't get much use.

Level 63 Human Female Death Knight so I have a fun DPS class when I'm bored, she'll probably replace my hunter as a farmer if things keep up.

I think i have 2 other lowbies on that server. It's Sisters of Elune btw, RP server.

I have a 42 rogue on another server that I don't play on anymore, she'll join the rest of my characters if there's ever a free transfer from that server though since it's low pop I doubt it'll happen. And I rolled a DK on some other server that I'll probably use to keep in touch with my friends.

I've been playing for like 3 years on and off. I'm not a PvPer at all but if you guys ever have any questions on mechanics, number crunching, or theory crafting, especially pally tanking, pally healing, or pally DPS, lemme know. I know a bit about all mechanics but i used to heal in 40mans back in the day, did the ret thing while leveling through TBC and now I'm tanking my way through Wrath. I'm leveling Prot, and it doesn't suck! Probably because I walked in in Tier 4.5

So lemme know guys, I'm up for anything game related.

Slappy, about raids. Just so you know the game has been redone to gear more towards casual players. Most 5 mans take less than an hour with a bad group. And 10 mans take 2 hours tops. Same with the 25 mans. They're pretty quick now. Blizz mentioned wanting people to be able to go home for lunch break and be able to get a quick instance run in.

Well I have a 75 Belf Mage named Blayzn on shattered hand. I started playing after burning crusade came out, and did most of the BC raids up to kiljaeden on my mage.

I have been slow leveling to 80 because I really haven't had the time for it. I enjoy the current expansion and think its vastly improved the game play. But its still just a huge time sink. Its a game where an hour of play hardly feels worth while. I have close friends that play the game full time like its another job but I never have been able to play that way.

I have also somehow inherited several other characters. I have a 70 Belf paladin named Horcrux and a 70 troll shaman named Spliph.

Neither of these characters have been leveled by me, and they are also on my server. But I have played them semi extensively at level 70 (when it was capped) by doing raids, arenas, and battlegrounds.

Again lately my game time has been major slacking. I am getting 3-6 hours in a week for the past 3 months.

Well I decided to move my RP charecter away from Silvermoon and into Ogrimmar and I have to say, there are some really well thought out and decent RP storylines going on there. I've been following a few and they do interest me quite a bit.

It must just be the whole belf thing, all the noobish and idiotic RP'ers just seem to want to gather in Silvermoon and spout random crap.

Speaking of noobs there was yet another raid on Ironforge last night, and I decided that for once I was going to help out rather than watch. Now I feel a bad need to level my pally another 40 levels just to get some revenge on all those damn lvl 80 DKs. But for now I think Im going to level up some of the alts I have, just to get an idea of how each class plays and how I handle them.
