OT: Geek Alert- WoW

Fading's picture

Ok ok so time for the video game geek to come out and say hello! I figure I need to talk about something other than SD4 for a while. And WoW is my escape. In my other blog I noticed quite a few of you played World of Warcraft or Warcraft. Well I am a WoW addict. After the house is clean, dishes are done, I can be found on WoW. Smile DH got me hooked on the game about 2 years ago and now I can't quit!
I have three level 80 characters: feral NE druid, enhance Draenei Shaman, and a disc/holy NE priest. And I have one of every other character except for a warrior, all over level 20. I have what I call CADD or Character Attention Deficit Disorder. Basically I cannot spend too much time on one character or I get super bored so I split my time between a bunch of them.
So I was wondering if any of you have gotten into the addiction, how'd you get into WoW, what you characters are, and what server you are on?

Like I said dorky and WAYYYY off topic, but I need to think about something other than SD and WoW is my escape.

I play! I have never maxed out any of my characters. Usually around level 45 or so, I get bored and start new ones. I'm on Norgannon if you ever want to look for me. I am currently playing Morwynde (Alliance) and Nymphonia (Horde). Ohhh, I just got some of those Night Elf Mohawk grenades. Fun, fun!!

Haha! I'm on Veknilash. All my characters are Alliance, I just can't get used to questing in the horde territories! My most played characters are Asphixia, Mystikenna, Asiya and Smileemiley. (Yes the last one is in reference to Hannah Montana... lol) I love the NE Mohawk grenades!! THEY ROCK!! I also have a companion collecting problem...I just got the 75 pet achievement on my shaman... Blum 3 I take breaks from it every now and then. Like I will take off a week or month to just not play it, but I always go back!

LMAO! I was addicted to WoW until my video card fried my motherboard. Now I'm using FH's shitty laptop that causes lag like crazy.

Until fate intervened, I was playing a night elf druid moonkin, level 80. I also have a level 70 night elf priest. I've started a draenei shaman and a draenei hunter too (love that hit rating). All on Baelgun (FAILGUN) server. I'm considering switching servers though, because my guild sucks (run by a self-centred jerk) and the server seems to be full of 17 year-olds.

FH played a night elf warrior tank. He was main tank in our guild until I stopped playing. Actually, it was more adopting the puppy that caused us to let our memberships lapse... it's hard to run Naxx when you have to stop every hour to take the puppy outside.

We initially got into it because SS18 was playing and FH wanted an online way to connect with his son's interests. We had GREAT fun with it and kept the time we spent playing reasonably under control.

I'm considering going back to it now that we have a decent desktop to play on. But I think I'll switch servers and join a new guild.

Oh, and I HATE vent. Blum 3

Oh yeah! I forgot to mention my level 10 mage, who exists only to sell runes on the AH, and my level 9 mage who exists only as my banker / auction house whore. I started a guild for her called "The Money Launderer". My rune seller has a guild called "Already has a guild". I found playing the auction house more fun than raiding with that loser guild.

I don't play but perfectson does.... and I hope you guys don't do this:

Me: Perfectson, I need some help
Perfectson: Mom can it wait just a few minutes?
Me: Perfectson, it's an emergency and I need you to call 911
Perfectson: MOM I'M IN A DUNGEON (or) MOM I'M IN A RAID - IT'S GONNA HAVE TO WAIT

Meanwhile I lay there and die... ahahahhahahaha J/K!!!

It's become a joke now when DH asks me to do something I tell him I'm in a dungeon or on a raid... I find much humor in it but perfectson doesn't find it funny at all. LOL!

I haven't done that but when DH and I are playing together one of us will get up to grab something to eat/drink and the other will dual play on both comps haha. Smile Or if DH is raiding and I am questing, I will be his maid and vice versa. Smile

Hunter is my favorite class. I love the pets. Morwynde is a dwarf hunter, and Nymphonia is a Blood Elf mage - my first mage, and I like it. I've played everything else except for warrior.

I am an officer of my guild on Vek. Its a social guild with people ranging from 15 to 60! Our guild leader is awesome. I don't think I would have made it through some of the real life stuff without some of my guildees. I'm leveling a mage too! She's level 53 at the moment. She is going to be my 4th 80....My VERY first character was a warlock and she is 75 and will probably stay that way. I don't like her much...haha

Have you ever played Guild Wars? That was my first game. Loved it!! That was actually how Truelight and I fell in love - through the game.
