World of Warcraft

[annwfyn]

I'm not entirely sure how to say this...

*coughs and shuffles nervously*

Erm. I just got a World of Warcraft account. pierot made me do it. I'm playing a gnome rogue called 'Ravi' (it was the closet thing to kobold available to play in the Alliance) on the Bronzebeard server.

I have so far committed some hideous acts against animal welfare by slaughtering a large number of wolves (at least they don't seem to be an endangered species here), and am now indulging in some quite nasty racially motivated attacks and am slaughtering Rockjaw Troggs right left and centre. They've done nothing to me, and yet I kill them!

pierot and molez say I'm not really getting into the spirit of World of Warcraft, which is just to go and kill some shit. I may not be one of nature's hack and slash killers.

However, I am currently on World of Warcraft. I think this means that people may talk to me there if they wish to kill stuff.

In more interesting news, I am also planning to order more perfume from America soon...

*looks at the above sentence*

Oh dear...

That's not a very WoW player thing to say, right?

KILL THINGS AND TAKE THEIR STUFF
Hence why I have precisely zero interest in MMORPGs. :)

Sally, I'm very dissappointed in you.

I'd say I'd never speak to you again, but it's going to get hard enough to talk to you as you lose your soul to this horror.

You've started down a very slippery slope now, from which there is very little hope of redemption.

And the worst thing is, you guys are starting to tempt me.

It's disturbing. On the plus side, me playing WoW seems to amuse jez, who tells me I am cute when I shriek "stabbity death".

He's not been this affectionate in AGES! WoW is apparently the way to a man's heart.

I thought it was that bit between the third and fourth rib...

Re: *sighs*

[adze.livejournal.com]

Ok, that's at least an amusing image.

See, I'm considering it, as it seems like the easiest way of keeping in touch with a lot of people, and more all the time.

But I know me, and I'm really going to begrudge paying out £40 plus a tenner a month for what will turn into a glorified messenger system.

Re: *sighs*

[molez.livejournal.com]

We can recommend you and you don't have to pay the £40, just the monthly (first 10 days free)

Also, I think there are enough of us that there will always be a spread in levels.

Really? Ok, that sounds cool.

I'm going to download the trial this morning, and see if it'll run on this PC, as I'm slightly below the spec (not quite enough RAM), and see what happens from there...

Re: *sighs*

[housemonkeytm.livejournal.com]

If you like, I've got a free trial cd you can have

Re: *sighs*

[adze.livejournal.com]

Cool - if there's a problem with the download, I'll let you know...

[flamma-lupus.livejournal.com]

welcome to the dark side!!
I take it they've not mentioned you meet kobolds later? (and KILL THE VERMINOUS LITTLE BASTARDS!!!) *runs*

[commlal.livejournal.com]

YOU NO STEAL CANDLE!!!

[annwfyn.livejournal.com]

I like kobolds. It upsets me that they get persecuted again in World of Warcraft.

They've always been the good guys in my mind...

[windzswept.livejournal.com]

When?

(*repeats the I must be good mantra and stop spending money on nice smellies*)

If it [the order] is on or after the 31st May and before Blue Moon disappears I may join you. (I want Blue Moon y'see and decided not to get it in slappersire's order because I knew it was resurfacing at the end of May).

And argggh! no WoW! More GW*! It's more fun and cheaper (no monthly subscription)

_{*where GW is Guild Wars and is like WoW but without the kill-stealing and with very pretty cut scenes}

[annwfyn.livejournal.com]

Basically, any time after May 25th when money re-appears in my account.

I am being quite tempted by getting proper bottles of a couple of my scents, and would very much like some imps in my quest to find a pirate perfume.

[windzswept.livejournal.com]

funky, poke me when you are doing the order.

I'm scared now that I just used the phrase 'funky'.

[purpleheather.livejournal.com]

Oooh - I suspect I may be interested in joining you, especially if I can find time to visit the lovely windzswept and slappersire for sniffing sessions!

[castorpollux23.livejournal.com]

Ha ha ha, you're now addicted to!

How are things going?

[souldestruction.livejournal.com]

It's ok, I have shotgun in the shed, I can bring it around and put you out of your pain and suffering, before you lose your life.

[annwfyn.livejournal.com]

I think it would be for the best.

Just kill me now...

[cairmen.livejournal.com]

Hurrah!

Why Bronzebeard? It's not even an RP server, I don't think...

I've got characters on Steamwheedle Cartel, Ravenholdt, and Earthen Ring, FYI.

Amanda's also on Steamwheedle, as is Alex N. Alex and Ian M are also on Ravenholdt.

[annwfyn.livejournal.com]

It's where jez plays, and he's been determinedly getting a small posse of people together. There's a bunch of folk I know there now. As jez is actually paying for my account I feel it is reasonable to actually play with him ;)

[alasdair.livejournal.com]

I didn't know you were on Steamwheedle these days. (As am I , obviously...)

[astro-dust.livejournal.com]

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

See, you descent is just how i imagine it is for those tempter demons who wait and wait for a truly innocent soul to come along and nobody this that they would ever sell themselves into the dark legions but here it goes, they just walk straight up to the tempter and sign the soul away, no questions asked...

It's like the greatest victory with the least effort.

Well i still like it on my deserted Sha'tar server, but i'll try to remember that when i inevitably get bored and start a new character, i'll put it on Bronzebeard..

[fire-sermon.livejournal.com]

Beware! Gordon got me hooked on WoW over the Christmas holidays, and then about six weeks ago both he and Barry stopped playing completely and now I can't even talk about it! Bah!

[eladriell.livejournal.com]

"Erm. I just got a World of Warcraft account."

I'm not angry, just dissapointed! :P

[annwfyn.livejournal.com]

I understand. I don't expect anyone to sympathise.

After all, I did this to myself :p

*smug smirk*

I feel better about having succumbed myself, now that you too are lost.

[liamgaidin.livejournal.com]

what server you on hun?
I play on Wow occationally myself, though recently I have gotten into Lord of the Rings Online. :)

[annwfyn.livejournal.com]

Bronzebeard. I'm currently a very small gnome with pink hair called 'Ravi'.

It's a normal server - neither pvp nor rp. Apparently it got picked by a bunch of folk who wanted to get a mixed guild together. They are mostly level 30-70. I'm level 4. I think I'm just along as a mascot ;)

[liamgaidin.livejournal.com]

Yeah I am the mascot of my guild too. They are all 30 to 70 and I can't seem to break out of 20. Pretty much all my characters are 20 or lower.

[annwfyn.livejournal.com]

Come play with me and we can be mascots together?

[ginger-jamie.livejournal.com]

Heheh. Place your head between your legs and kiss your social life goodbye. ;-)

This is like crack for gamers, it really is...
