[Woodzy]

Dam!!! it's suprising the amount of hot chicks playing...all the healers in most guild i've been in

lvling is way improved now, my mate got to 80yesterday on a drood and it took him less than 2 weeks..wat wat, nerds lol

[terrets]

Haha rightt.

[oneslow3000gt]

I have a 70 tank T3 geared out. but i quite about two years ago. picked up the current girl and just have not had the time to play. Ok i just got bored of it really. I play aion now kinda like it more.

[Zaroth]

Have played off and on several times. I always quit playing because it seems like 90% of the player base is really immature and I can only listen to children bicker for so long before I start to go insane. I have an 80 warlock.

[Jeremy C]

Tried it, found it boring. I play City of Heroes, though. That one has had me hooked for close to 6 years now.

[lawdogg]

I tried it for a while. Wound up just laying in the entrance to the auction place and yelling OUCH whenever anyone walked on me until they kicked me off

[terrets]

Hahahahaha

[GTOJOE]

hahaha never got into wow. Both my brothers were seriously addicted till the older one lost his gf over it. now 6 months later he has realised oh shit... i'm a fuck tard with no life. So he deleted all his accounts :lol: The other brother isn't far behind. What a life sap. Much like this forum :D

[GTOJOE]

Just remembered about this kid that worked with me at a computer shop once. We added up all his wow time and it came to half a year of wow time. Seriously..... he played so much wow it was half a years worth of playing non stop in one year. And he went to school in this time as well. That's fucking nuts.

[jba3]

80 pally (dual spec ret/prot) - 310% drake/epic flying/purple stuff, 80 dk (dual spec blood/frost), 55-ish rogue (heirloom geared, dual spec combat/subtlety), quit about 6 months ago but probably pick up in mid-late dec for cataclysm, at least for a month or two - terokar, aliance

:lmao:

[scolex]

I played A LOT when i got back from deployment in '07, stopped just before the expansion came out. Been WoW clean for over two years now, and happy. I see people now selling accounts on craigslist for 300-500 and laugh, I tell people that in two weeks the hundreds of hours that they have dedicated to getting that Tier 7 or 9 or whatever Tier they are on now gear is going to be obsolete, and their account is only going to be worth the time it would take a new player to get from level 1 to level 80, and whatever gold they have now.

[eljefefx]

Just installed Cataclysm. Only had time to get invited to my old guild and talk a bit. UI customization and familiarization with the new shit starts tomorrow.

[DrkZide]

Didn't play for a while, picked back up after Cataclysm. Haven't played in a few days though.

82 Human Ret Paladin - Alliance - Server: Tichondrius
62 Worgen Unholy Death Knight - Alliance - Server: Tichondrius

I'm finding it hard to figure out which character I want to level lol

Funnily enough my first server was Tich.

[DrkZide]

Why'd you change?

[eljefefx]

Why'd you change?

Overpopulated as hell. I've played off and on since the launch of vanilla. When the game came out there were a handful of servers. Some more were created and some of my friends headed to spirestone. Been there since

[IPD]

...i think if i were gonna pay for a monthly subscription to a game, it would be star wars or star trek. (shrug)

[Zaroth]

The new starwars MMO coming out looks really promising. I am definitely going to give it a run and see if it is any good.

[FluffyCow]

Týrellas: Lv 85 undead mage, Skywall.
Got other chars(80 DK, 70 rogue, misc alts) on Skywall and Eredar..

[bluzvr4]

i have a 80 loc on wildhammer. he use to be a badass i had a 5.9k gs. havent played since they brought out the bata but plan on starting soon. o and im ally :)

[reallyxxxxxxloud]

Oh come one you WIMPY SH!TS get playing a real game like BC2... :p

[Nytron]

I used to play WoW heavily back when it first came out, right up until the first expansion came out. Played from beta on Archimonde and then x-fered to Mug'thol along with most of the server. Very high level competition on that server, the horde on our server was staaaacked. Guilds like nurfed and dominion, best of the best.

When I quit, I had the best geared rogue on the server. Server first Kingsfall, w/ Maexna's fang in the offhand + mutilate spec. Yeah, that game is more addicting than probably any drug out there. I quit the day the first expansion came out and haven't logged on since.

[IPD]

kinda pointless...like playing pokemon. as soon as you have "the best of everything"; they release something new and you end up paying for the new game so you can go get more shit.

yeah....i never picked up WOW because i learned that lesson years earlier. ;)

[Dreamflange]

I took a WoW time out to finish work on the VR4 after i realized i had not touched the car in 3 weeks because Cata had just came out. i've been WoW Clean for about 2 months now. lol i feel like i'm at an AA meeting. Anyways i'm Dreamflange of Dark Iron Guild: Knights of Arcadia, part of the Penny Arcade Alliance. Towards the end of WoTLK i had a GS of ~6200 which was run of the mill average i think. After i finish my car project i may start playing again...who knows.

[BigTyla]

TL;DR at bottom in bold.

I started playing WoW not long before TBC came out. It was the end of my freshman year of college and I only played when I was bored so I didn't hit the level cap until well into my sophomore year. My first character was a human shadow priest on the Executus server. I twinked her a little bit at 59 but never really got serious with the game. I finally bought the expansion a few months after it came out and went holy. I remember finally hitting the cap and running heroic dungeons to gear up, and then getting attuned for Karazhan. That was my first raid. I had a blast playing back then. It was when I started raiding that I started getting more involved in the game. I would never play on weekends but I definitely got hooked, but thankfully not as much as others do. I ended up committing to two nights per week to do Kara. We finally cleared it after a couple of months of hard work, outpacing the main guild group and pissing them off in the process. Eventually we got so good we cleared it in about 3 hours, and the guild master (not in our raid group) started trying to merge failures from his group into ours and messed up our chemistry. The best of us ended up leaving and joining the best alliance guild on the server.

Started PvPing at the very end of season 3 and realized how fun and competitive it was. I'm a VERY competitive person so it fit my style. I started doing PvP more during s4 and was so excited to get 1700 in 2s. Man I was such a noob back then. :D As stated earlier, I ended up leaving my first serious guild for the best guild on the server at the end of TBC (called Aftermath) and ran Black Temple with them once to kill Illidan. After season 4 ended I decided to quit for a couple of months. Got married, enrolled into grad school, and decided to come back and play less seriously.

About a month after Wrath hit was when I came back. I ended up making an alt ret paladin of mine my main as I wasn't impressed with priests at the time. I was very exited with the new area and felt it was the best Blizzard had ever done in terms of leveling experience. The soundtrack was great, the topography was amazing, and the storyline flowed very well. My guild cleared Naxx easily (who didn't) and I started getting better and better at PvP, doing some 2s and 3s with some of my guildmates to practice. When Ulduar rolled around, I would dedicate one day per week to try and join their 25 man group. After a couple of weeks of not getting in due to a full group, they were able to squeeze me in and I didn't disappoint. Ended up getting top 5 in DPS which seemed to impress them (I guess they didn't have faith in me lol) so they kept bringing me back when I was able to play. Ended up getting the T1 PvP two-hander after getting 1850 in 3s with a triple dps comp (Enhance Shaman / Ret Paladin / Rogue) and topped the DPS charts with that bad boy quite a bit. Ulduar was such an amazing raid. I really can't see Blizzard topping it.

Then Trial of the Crusader rolled around and the content was so stale and easy to clear that I think it ended up breaking our guild. A lot of players quit or transferred and I had become a little less active. As a matter of fact I don't think I ever raided with them for that particular raid. At the time I was having fun doing PvP on my paladin as well as my human priest that I had decided to level up to 80. I was also leveling an Orc DK on a server called Silvermoon where a few of my old friends from my very first guild (who had also joined Aftermath with me) rerolled. Being Horde was new to me and I had always hated them until I rolled one. Best decision I ever made. Horde is infinitely more awesome than Alliance. I liked my DK a lot but I was so much better at my other characters, particularly my priest. Unfortunately by this time Aftermath had completely fallen apart and I didn't have a lot of people to PvP with on Executus.

But then, Blizzard decided to make faction transfers possible. As soon as they did, I transferred my priest to Horde and went Undead. Ended up finding a few good PvPers and worked my way up the ladder, going from good to great in about a couple of months. I played Disc Priest / Destro Lock in 2s to 2000 and Ele Shaman / Destro Lock / Disc Priest in 3s to 2200. Then Season 8 came around and I got even better, becoming proficient in both Shadow and Disc. My 2s comps were Disc / Rogue, Shadow / Rogue, Shadow / Resto Druid, and Shadow / Holy Paladin all at around 2200 MMR, but never got the team rating up above that. For 3s I ran Shadow / Rogue / Resto Shaman and Disc / Holy Paladin / Warrior to 2300 (yes double healer is gay). I also had a badass 5s team that got a little over 2500, missing the Gladiator title by about 60 points because most of our team members had quit before the end of the season and Silvermoon is severely lacking in good PvPers. I ended up finishing the season doing 2s with a warrior friend to get my Arena Master title. We played Warrior / Disc priest and our MMR was 2700 before we stopped playing when I got my title. I also messed around a little bit on my Elemental Shaman, helping my friend get his Arena Master title in 3s, even with the bad gear I was wearing at the time.

Now that Cata has hit, I'm more casual than I've ever been. As a matter of fact, I'm probably averaging under 4 hours per week of play time, which is almost unheard of for serious PvPers like myself. Of course, I leveled my priest first and then I leveled my alt Shaman and geared him for Enhancement. Had quite a bit of fun playing my Shaman but soon realized I no longer have the time to multiclass, so I decided to finish out leveling my Paladin just for the hell of it (since I had already gotten him to 83) and stay committed to my Priest. But the lack of PvPers in Silvermoon forced me to transfer away. I ended up going to Lightning's Blade thanks to a recommendation from a real-life friend.

I don't raid anymore because it's too time consuming and often requires a strict schedule, something I don't have now that I have better things to do. :D So now I typically log on and either do a couple BGs or do arenas for a couple of hours and then log. I don't have any intention of shooting for Gladiator at this time since I doubt I'd be able to find a team that was understanding of my erratic schedule. I've mainly been doing 2s with a friend that transferred from Silvermoon not too long ago, and we could probably get 2500+ eventually, but Blizzard got rid of titles in 2s so rating is rather worthless here except for increasing your weekly Crusader Points cap.

Now I'm stuck at a crossroads since I hardly play anymore, and I've been debating quitting altogether to play a more time-friendly game like StarCraft 2. I just hate leaving a game I'm so good at for a game that I'd have to get good at (I never played SC1 seriously - just the campaigns). As a matter of fact I haven't logged on WoW for over 7 days as I have simply had better things to do. And that's a good thing! It means I'm not bored!

TL;DR - Started playing right before TBC, raided until middle of Wrath, got really good at PvP and now PvP exclusively while playing only 4-5 hours per week.

Anyways, enough of the wall of text. Here's my Arena Master priest. I played shadow exclusively this season until two weeks ago when I decided to go back to disc. I'm much better at disc.

Ambieleigh @ Lightning's Blade - Game - World of Warcraft (http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/lightnings-blade/ambieleigh/simple)

And here's my alt Shaman that I hardly play anymore.

Omg did not read. lol. Come play Rift. Way better.

[Dreamflange]

Unlike a lot of people, i only played 1 toon which was my hunter. from October 2006-jan 2011. a long run really.

not to hijack the thread or anything but Blizzard Entertainment leaves a bad taste in my mouth because they are constantly changing the classes to "balance" them. seems more like to me that they are just rotating who is OP and who isn't to keep people re rolling toons and keep people playing. blizzard acts like with the hundred million dollar profit they make off the game per year that the cant hire a couple mathematicians to "balance" the game.

So maybe i will come play rift ^_^

I think Blizzard has done a far better job balancing classes than any other MMO, but it has come at the expense of class homogenization. Now every healer has a dispel which has made PvP more bland. And every so often, Blizzard will make a nerf or buff to a class for the sake of PvE balance and it ends up making the class either over the top or totally unplayable in PvP.

I've heard Rift is a decent game, but then again everyone was saying that about Warhammer Online too, and that turned out to be a total flop. I tried WAR myself and was so disappointed I decided never to jump head first in another MMO before the general populace had tried it out first.

I've heard some great things and some not so great things about Rift. They've used the Blizzard model in making the MMO so in that regard I think they will see some success. I also hear the PvE concept is working well so far with all of the different rifts popping up.

Personally, I'm just waiting for Diablo 3. :D

[BigTyla]

Omg did not read. lol. Come play Rift. Way better.

Edited my post for a TL;DR.

Yeah, I couldn't sleep last night. :D

[terrets]

I havent even been playing Rift lately. Only the played during the beta...but now with the girlfriend and Dragon Age II and the car, I dont really have time :).

Glad your not addicted and playing all the time ;) That priest is pretty badass. Magic FTW.

[FluffyCow]

D3 ftw...

[IPD]

D3 ftw...

agreed. hopefully blizzard won't fuck it up with subscriptions.

[BigTyla]

agreed. hopefully blizzard won't fuck it up with subscriptions.

Blizzard has specifically stated that D3 will not require subs, just like SC2.

[IPD]

Blizzard has specifically stated that D3 will not require subs, just like SC2.

sounds great. then again, SC2 was originally supposed to have 4-5 classes. it has less classes than warcraft 3. fail.

[BigTyla]

I think it's fine to have only three races. I know it makes it feel a lot like SC1, but SC2 has MASSIVE improvements in gameplay to make up for it.

I'm trying to get into SC2 as I ween myself off WoW. I feel like it's easier for me to play for shorter durations. I played SC1 sparingly while it was out but very casually.

[Dreamflange]

Id like to play Diablo 3, however i feel that the Diablo 3 I would like and what they are making are not close. I have played the Diablo series since 1997. and i have now covered the totality of my gaming Career. Diablo Diablo2 and WoW. I've never played any other games. That is unless you count just randomly playing Tekken or something at a friends house.

warcraft 3 had massive improvements in gameplay...and still had time to create an extra 2 classes over warcraft 2. i just feel gyped. multiple times over.

1. game has less races than originally announced
2. game costs $60^3. that's $180 for the full game.
3. no LAN support.

i mean, the list goes on and on. will i buy it and play it eventually? sure. probably not until 2012 or 2013. i can buy 6 new games at the going rate (for what i pay)--for the cost of the complete sc2 package.

p.s.

that's a pretty narrow realm of games, dream. you should have at least tried UT-RPG. :)

Server: Malorn, Horde

I dont play much, log on once a week maybe. I'm raid ready, but not feeling dedicated enough to dedicate 2-3 nights a week.
I'm into one night stands too much right now. but i still pay and pay once in a while

[BigTyla]

I rage quit after facing DK/mage 5 times straight last night at going 0-5 because DKs are unslowable and throw desecrate everywhere in a 50 yard radius. We had already played them 4 straight times when I jokingly said:

Me: "Okay, I'm queueing again and since we've already lost to them four times straight there's no way we get them again."

Teammate: "Dude, we're going to get them again."

Me: "In three years of arena I have NEVER heard of queuing into a team five times straight after going 0-4. If we get them again I will cancel my sub."

So we got them again and we lost. And then I cancelled my sub. Guess it was God's way of telling me to GTFO of WoW. :D

Really haven't been having fun in the game lately since I haven't had any time to play. I know 2s is imba so running into a countercomp doesn't really piss me off. It's just that no 3s team wants a healer that is only on a few hours a week, so with so little time it's not worth me playing anymore. I would just PvE with a casual guild but I can't adhere to any sort of schedule for gaming, and playing this game in single-player is IMPOSSIBLE.

So I'm moving on to SC2 and anxiously awaiting D3. SC2 fits my casual gaming lifestyle perfectly so I look forward to having some fun with it. :)

Rest of them are 60-80 was addicted 6 months ago, quit, played rift and loved the shit out of that game and just decided weather is nice and dont want to be stuck on the pc all day and pay 15 a month when I could use that money for parts haha. I was a hardcore raider with the number 1 guild on my server until I stopped.
