About 5 years ago or my husband and I were dating and he was insisted that I get cable internet so he could play an online game while he was visiting me. I watched him play and could not understand how anyone could sit still for hours and be entertained. Well, he convinced me to start a character on wow and I finally relented and that is how Dianne was born. I've always been a sci-fi/fantasy buff and this game was amazing. Having never played a role play game, never seen graphics like this, I felt like I had been transported to another time. A druid was a natural pick for me and I chose a hunter as well. (I wanted a pet). I still love all my characters and now I understand how you can sit still for hours ................ <br />DianneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4786985013126719499.post-67937157176229701312010-02-10T11:13:03.279-07:002010-02-10T11:13:03.279-07:00@Bear Pelt

So I definitely feel you on that one.Sanielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13721178387445086503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4786985013126719499.post-51259796041074930782010-02-10T11:04:34.299-07:002010-02-10T11:04:34.299-07:00I've always been interested in gameplay/system...I've always been interested in gameplay/systems/whatever. So I keep on hearing about how WoW is the "best", and I thought you know, if I'm going to rag on it so much I should at least try it. <br /><br />So I got a copy for Xmas, and to be honestly I was hooked by the polish right for the get-go. <br /><br />Then my wife watched me play, wanted to try it on her own, and it went from there. Only difference is that she made it to level 3 before we went to get her own copy.Karmakinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04004985081615301056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4786985013126719499.post-41702246420335626072010-02-10T00:24:27.665-07:002010-02-10T00:24:27.665-07:00I had played Diablo II before and not thought much...I had played Diablo II before and not thought much of it. Years later I started on an Asian MMORPG (free to play) and decided I liked the whole play-online-with-many genre. Initially resisted WoW as the graphics were not very impressive to me, but also began to indulge into the lore over at WoWwiki.com. I was always curious as to how this game--with its outdated graphics--dominated the MMORPG market. A good good number of my colleagues play it as well to make things worse.<br /><br />I fell in love with the story. The multitude of characters. Their connecting stories. The depth. Warcraft had levels of lore that I had found lacking in every other RPG sought; and being an ex-D&D tabletop player, this is a huge plus factor.<br /><br />So I finally dove into WoW in August 2008. At first the mechanics proved challenging to get over, and I discovered the underlying hatred for the Night Elf starting zone despite rolling my favourite class--the Druid. Switched over to the Horde, and I've been with my Femtaur druid ever since.Bear Pelthttp://wowtrotter.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4786985013126719499.post-807414343686450932010-02-09T15:22:57.755-07:002010-02-09T15:22:57.755-07:00Clearly I'm not remembering all my details cor...Clearly I'm not remembering all my details correctly. I just checked my account page and it turns out that I activated my subscription on 3/5/06, which was exactly one month after SuperBowl XL. I remember clearly watching the other half play while I was also watching football most afternoons. So maybe I tooled around on his account longer than I recall before getting my own. Now that I think about it, getting to level 15 or 20 (yay, Barrens!) back in the day would have taken more than a few hours, so that makes sense. Either way...holycrapI'vebeenplayingforalmost4years!

I travelled around the world of the Azeroth thru his eyes. I really did have a great time with him. I could be solo for almost quests (expect instances). I could grind material around Azeroth. I made the group wiped thanks to my lovely pet in MARA / Sunken temple / BRD / UBRS. <br />However, many of the core players in my hunter’s old guild had transferred out to continue their vanilla WOW journal. At the time, I took a long break for my school. Before the storm came, my hunter raised again. I was playing other 3 toons, my druid, my rouge and my warrior as my little projects. When my brothers and friends joined force to defend Azeroth, I started to let my druid to take over. My brother got a prot pally. My 5 friends got hunter, shammy, feral druid, lock, and mage. Since no healer, I opted to let my druid be their designated healer (therefore, my brother formed a family guild named Lsevener, which were referring 7 of us). Since then, I am a healer ;)Darsonsindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16003087068796617819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4786985013126719499.post-19363635344014146302010-02-09T14:27:21.894-07:002010-02-09T14:27:21.894-07:00See now I have a way to start my WoW blog ty. But...See now I have a way to start my WoW blog ty. But I'll write here since I'm avoiding work.<br /><br />I played Dark Age of Camelot way back in the day. I played with the big foot boys and Azucar. I had applied for the beta in WoW and forgotten all about it. I got in phase one of closed beta probably because I was a girl gamer with a seriously kick ass gaming computer (for the time).<br /><br />They had closed down the Horde for the start of beta so that wasn't an option and the one class I really wanted to try was a hunter. Hunters were not yet available, nor were druids so I decided to fall back on what I always played, a healer. I rolled a night elf priest. I was very excited to see that I could sleep things and do damage (lolsmite) and heal. Then I got in a group and it all changed and I learned my very first beta phrase. Taunt was NYI, not yet implemented.<br /><br />So back to the drawing board I went. I rolled a rogue. I enjoyed her a great deal. I got her to level cap (yay level 30) but lost her to the lockdown for phase two testing.<br /><br />I tried a paladin in phase two. By that time Azucar was in beta with me and he rolled a warrior so I rolled a paladin. Here's what a paladin could do in beta. Auto swing and heal. I got to level cap (yay level 50) but was bored stupid. I then began my personal game within the game, alt leveling. <br /><br />By the time beta closed I had the following characters at level cap.<br /><br />NE priest<br />NE hunter<br />NE rogue<br />Human paladin<br />Undead warlock<br />Orc hunter<br /><br />Yes that's two hunters. I wanted to see the orc content.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
