I'll track you down one day.
You must have been afk because you were stood on the spot for a while. I managed to get some smelting and Engineering done and you were still there.
Added you to my FL though, so when you catch up, we'll have to do an Instance or two :)
------------------------------
Really getting back into this game now. Glad I took a break from it - almost at level 32, managed to make some Goblin Jumper Cables, so I now have a secondary rez ability which takes the painful 30 minute cooldown of Rebirth out of the picture.
Currently over at Shimmering Flats doing some Quests. Bumped into a load of Horde Yesterday - each of them could have easily started a fight, most could have wiped the floor with me. They let me get on with my quests as I let them get on with theirs.
It now seems the whole OMG HONER KILLZ GANK ANYONE!!eleventy mentality has died down, which is nice. :)

Aye, got level 20 in two days with the help of some Alliance friends, but now I have to break as all my exams are lumped together into this week.
Some lv13 dueled me in Ratchet, there were 4 alliance in total all with PvP enabled. It would have been an easy win for me but I attacked her before the countdown and flagged myself for PvP.
They all killed me, and they were then killed by 4 conveniently placed Bruisers.
Neutral towns need more anti-PvP guards, it's too easy to kill people and have nothing happen. Must be great fun on PvP servers.
Was targetted by a Paladin 3 levels higher than me until he'd killed me a couple of times on the trot. I proceeded to run behind a building, him giving chase.
Smack bang into 3 lv60 Orcs.
He didn't pick on the weakling shaman anymore
Hanging around outside BFD by myself, I notice two Tauren coming up behind me - level36 and 29. I waved, got moonfired once then they waved back. I think they were intimidated by my Mechanical Squirrel.
Whitestripes - gone Alliance? Nice one. Can't believe you deleted your level 60 though. :O
Hadn't played for a couple of days but right back into it again now, missed my fishing zen moments and smacking huge spiders in the face with my troll pole
Another good thing about PvE, is that although you've got the normal PvP fighting which is fun, you can also duel opposition members randomly and not have to worry about dying.
I challenged a lv60 to a duel once, I was lv7. :c)
I was going at him like anything, then he hit me once and it ended.
Was with another shaman (I'm 29, he's 30) at Blackfathom Deeps, waiting to go inside and quest. 3 Alliance turn up, lv 26, 30 & 24. So we're all pretty evenly matched.
They start clucking and rasping at us, so we flick pvp on and antagonise them. Clearly their righteous fury knew no bound so they attacked.
A hunter, a rogue & a warrior against 2 shamans.
*chuckles*
We absolutely butchered them. So we went fishing for a bit afterwards to await another member of the team before we quested the instance.
And the 3 victims come back with another mate.
4 of them this time, still flagged for pvp.
So we killed 4 of them. And danced. And did some more fishing.
They return again and salute/applaud us, and we thank/bow etc.
And, screenshot coming up, all of us stood there fishing and insulting a hydra.
There's just a lack of idiotic ganking on pve for the most part. Just straight forward, evenly pitched fighting. Which I have zero problem with, I'll happily lose a fight against somebody around my level. It'll be because I wasn't very good/strong against that guy.
It's NOT being hammered by lv?? gangs for no reason.
Fighting = good
Raping = bad

Exactly the reason I moved before I started hitting hit levels. PvP can be fun, but sometimes I just want to quest in peace.
