I personally love WoW and currently hate myself for not buying it sooner... every time i feel like the games getting a bit same ol same ol i find out something new and joy fills me once more...infact the only thing i hate is lagforge...i will go out of my way to avoid that place if possible, i just cant work out why so many people stand around there doing nothing or duel...it maken no sence...

on a final note.... Druids rock! expecially travel form \\o/

one thing with ironforge, i always seem to end up in that ditch thing. i dont think i have ever been there with out paying it a visit. also i always find it odd how one second you can be running one way then get hit by some lag and be facing the totaly opposite direction next second...
<Rux> i wish i could say that narrows it down, but the internet is one freaky place

Plenty of rp on my server. Guess that\'s why it\'s called a rp server :P And I almost always win battlegrounds, usually 3-0 in WSG. It\'s good to be part of the hoard. :D

Val: If you didn\'t like being killed why\'d you join a PvP server?

And the AH thing is being implemented in the next big patch.

I happen to like WoW a lot.  I find it\'s better than most out there because of the atmosphere.  I don\'t have to run around killing stuff all day there\'s more to the game than that.  And I like that.

P.S.  On the whole money/game issue.  I know a guy who maxed out all jobs in FFXI and sold the character for $3000

Only n00bs don't quote themselves...

I know it sounds funny... but one of my best friends played and he got me into it.  Hes even more of a gamer than I am and if you play on the Zek server in EQ, if you have played long enough, you will know False Hope :P.. yeah not the best of reasons.. but I was just trying to spend time with a good friend.

heres a little story of why i play WoW

when we (me and my friends) were coming up to like the end of year 11 we had been planning to find some game we could all play together, we used to spend hours having the biggest battles ever on staw wars galactic battle grounds. with WoW coming we decided it should be that. then we found out we needed to pay to play and were all like that sucks. then in the end we bought it anyway after much shouting at from one of us who bought it first. there is still one of us who did not join us in WoW but still even if we are not bahing things there is a lot to do... we have out Elite Questing Squad, we spent about two hours getting a hordie alt (tramrat) from undead lands to the tram then we got bored and killed him.

yeah... im in lessons and a little bored :|

Sorry if it\'s been said, but there are tonnes of free WoW servers out there.  I don\'t know exactly how it works.  Chances are, you can\'t use the same characters that you have on the pay servers.

Nope you cant..

and free servers are laggy..

only have a population of like 100 people.. so youll never do the endgame.

youll never find anything good on the auction house

and lots of bugs

and to top it all of.. there is ramifications if you are caught

Farewell Moogie, Farewell Draklar, Farewell Drey. you will be missed.

Let me guess, Blizzard retracts their liscensing to you of the client software? :)  Ah, intellectual property rights...

And free servers don\'t have any of the fun quests. :) I never have to powerlevel in WoW to do things. Completing quests, playing with my guild in the battlegrounds, roleplaying, crafting, and exploring all work nicely with each other so that you never get bored and you\'re never forced to spend hours just killing the same monster over and over again.

It may be cool  but there is just no way I will pay $10 a month to play a game and then even have to buy the game to start with.

I\'ll stick with either free MMORPG\'s or buy once and then free MMORPG\'s like Guild Wars.

Guild Wars isnt a MMORPG  :P

I used to play it (GW) until the stupid nerfs appeared and screwed everyting. Then most of my guildies there returned to WoW and so I decided to try it :D

The most annoying thing in WoW isnt the lagg.. It\'s the waiting time. Some times to play on my server I have to wait for 30 mins in queue..

Anyway.. It worths  ;)
