    Heh. :D

    I'm not really pleased with his gear, but as a ret pally, I've kinda had to sit out most instances they were really desperate for a healer/tank. I'm transferring soon to Twisting Nether, I have a friend there. Working on his fluff; I've never been satisfied with the "Blood Knights".

    Okay, who else?

    Here's my troll rogue I haven't played in a while. This is the character I'm currently playing. Some friends started up so I rolled a character and joined them.

    I'm enjoying the Normal play servers. Much more relaxed. PvP servers are too much of a pain in the ass for my style of play.

    There are days when I want to just slam the Alliance in the face.

    I knew what I signed up for when I rolled on a PVP server, but I like to give people their space; never believed in griefing other players for the fuck of it. Still, it's satisfying when I throw my hammer into the back of that Night Elf (any they're always NEs) skull after they realize they bit off more than they can chew.

    I played it for about a month, and got up to a lvl 25 white mage, or whatever you call the main healer. (Priest?)

    I got tired of it and thought FFXI was better based on gameplay mechanics and art style. So I went back to that.

    I bought it, tried it, got tired of 12 year olds offering me out (when they're a huge amount of levels above me) and trying to spam me into accepting a fight/duel/whatever and promptly gave it the gooner before my free month ran out.

    The graphics have a certain charm (if you like primary colours, simple geometry and Fisher Price stylee texturing ;) ) and Thunder Bluff and the Undercity (the Undead place, if that isn't the name) were nicely done, but I just never really got into it.

    My heart will always belong to the pre-CU SWG :wub: :wub: :wub:

    Most fun i have had on a space game in a very long time.


    You can be anything and i mean anything you want in this game if your willing to put the time in to it.

    Here is a titan takes about 2-3 years to train up to it (all real time) and it costs about $15,000 (220 Billion isk) if you were to buy all the game money for it (would get banned for buying it as it's against the eula)

    Here is my ship it's a Tech 1 Gallente Cruiser called a Thorax, it a close range blaster boat with tons of Armour and crappy shields.
    It's loads of Fun to use, killed a Heavy Assault Cruiser (tech 2) with it.

    Will start my own Eve thread at some point.

    I quit WoW to pay for Gemstone, but back in the day I was a pretty kickass human warlock. I put in the grind to get exalted with the furbolgs (to get furbolg ancestor). I miss it, but ehn. I imagine I will pick it back up with the next expansion. My future brother in law sold his account for like $1,200.

    I played a while ago, then went dead stop.
    My main was a Troll Hunter named Fergit, as in forget but spelled incorrectly. I think I was about level 40, but getting very bored of the game. When Burning Crusade came out I loaded it up, but the laptop couldn't handle the game and the expansion was still really buggy. That on top of nearly daily patch downloads as they tuned the expansion just drove me away.

    I've had a few alts, mostly Alliance side. The one I tend to play anymore is Zurgha, a level 38 warlock.

    Never gotten into it.

    Looks fun though.

    Anyone remember Runescape?

    I tinkered with Runescape for an evening or so. Never really got into it beyond that. It was all right, but there were better games out there worth paying for at the time.

    With the recent changes to pallies, I'm fairly impressed with some of the ret pallies I've grouped with. They do some decent damage, plus it's nice to have another person with the ability to res in the party.

    I decided to make another pally since our guild is short on tanks. I used to have a 60 human warrior, but didn't want to level one of those again. I had a human paladin from around the 1.10 days, but only got it to the mid-30s before getting sick of it. It's a much more pleasant class to play these days. I'm having a lot of fun leveling, and look forward to being able to tank the higher level stuff.

    The Blood Knights storyline is a lot better than I was expecting, too. Frankly, I was expecting a simple rehash of the Alliance pally quests. But the Blood Knights have a fairly interesting and dark storyline. It's very fitting with what the lore of the Blood Elves.
