Yes another WoW post, I will save you the need to urge your peni towards the keyboard in a desperate attempt to point this out...

Pretty sweet RPG so far, only a couple of hours in. Haven't quite seen why so many people have been fapping like porn monkeys over it yet but have been told by plenty you are no-where near scratching the surface of it yet (which I can believe by the sheer size of it so far).

Chose to be a Dwarf in the end, a Warrior Dwraf with possibly the ugliest face ever. Kicks ass in battle, spent ages at the opening of Dragonmaw fighting the wolves and troggs to level up a bit. One thing that is decent is that everyone who I have come across so far has been pretty helpful and not even slightly c*ck faced.

Interface is sweet, the layout was easy enough to get to grips with after the initial "this is just one area, wtf?!". The environments make Lisa Riley's mu*f saddle looking like a toddler's paddling pool.

Controls are easy, the magic areas aren't even slightly geeky from what I have come across so far, just drag it onto the bar and click it when you need it. Haven't really bought much yet but that too seems simple enough to use and from what I gather it nails other MMORPG's for its less geeky approach. For a first time MMORPG'er' I have founs it fack easy to get into and nothing like what I expected (only in a good way though).

Visually it is sweet, the soundtrack is awesome, the presentation is spot on etc etc *fap fap*

Wish I didn't have work tomorrow but life's a b*tch!

It's quite simple. /pvp and you stay PVP enabled for the duration. Type it again and you lose PVP after 5 minutes of non-PVP action.

I'm on Thunderhorn now, and I intend on staying there and putting some real effort into my character - UD Rogue, currently level 9 after a couple of hours yesterday.

I'm not going to delete my Dragonmaw characters though - if anything, I'll create a new one and send everything they have to the new one via mail before deleting.

Deleted my level 43 Hunter from Dragonmaw after I realised I couldn't take it any further as far a PVP one on one goes. Hunters are an excellent class for single player quests but for PVP you get nailed everytime unless it is another Hunter you are up against. A quick fright spell from a Mage/Priest takes the pet out and once it boils down to close range combat you can kiss good bye.

The lag in some of the higher populated areas meant that when trying to fire from long range I was in fact swinging with my sword - I didn't realise this until they were jmuping half the map in one movement :D Cograts to Blizzard for charging people for servers that can't cope with thr number of people on them...

I did go Horde PVE on Thunderholm for a little while but then realise I didn't like my Horde character and that all this /pvp crap would just becomes a pain in the jock crack after a while.

So...

Now back PVP on Dunemaul - started a new character yesterday and already got them up to level 14.

*sigh*

I'll be getting this when I get my next paycheck. How does it work again - you all go around in a gang, fighting other gangs of beardy virgins?

If you take up cooking and get the recipe for Savory Deviate delight, you can then use them to transform into a pirate or ninja for an hour. There are other random effects too, fake death, something that makes spell castng faster and perhaps my favourite, though it only lasted 6 seconds, being turned into a giant green ectoplasm.

But the recipe is a very rare drop, and usually sells for up to 10 gold on the auction, hence my excitement over getting it for just 20 silver.

Yes, I finally got a hold of the Savory Deviate Scale recipe for cooking, allowing me to cook deviate scale fish which can then be used to transform.

It usually goes for allot of gold on the auction, but I got lucky and found it for a 20 silver buyout (I love newbies) now I can waltz around the crossroads disguised a pirate while all the level 13 players walk around with a confused look about them.

Alliance usually do :-D

Started on a new server now seeing as Suicide Soldier convinced me to change over to PvE so we won't have to deal with ?? horde idiots who find nothing funnier then to attack you while you're trying to quest.

Bloody SS and he's undecided mind though deciding he didn't want to be a horde after we got to level 8 and an hour or so of play.

Did you get my messages you peon? :-D

What realm are you in? The exact same thing happened to me in Doomhammer. Check the photo thread though, the Alliance absolutely kicked ass!
