After the nightmare of PvP honour system slaughters, I went onto a PvE/normal server with Grix, Pand & a couple others.
And it's exactly how it used to be before lv60 fools started killing everything in sight.

Today for example.
My Troll Shaman was crouched above The Crossroads trying to spot Prowlers so I could take their paws from their dead body.

Then I realise I can now create underwater breathing potions but dont have any fish. Better go to Ratchet and increase my skill, otherwise I'll have to pay lots on auction houses.
So I run there and find 4 lv?? Alliance, fresh off the boat. I decide to aggravate them for a bit. I strut, make chicken noises, laugh and fart on them. They seem unimpressed and golfclap me

After a couple of minutes of this, I suddenly realise a lot more of their friends have turned up. I continue to dance, insult and laugh at them.
But there are definitely more of them now. Damn

Suddenly, with the arrival of another boat, there are now 20+ Alliance gathering for a raid. With one lone Horde to greet them.
Me.
Except I've been angering them for the past 5 mins.I stop dancing and start waving nervously, I may be in trouble

So I decide what the hell, and attack them.
A lv17 against an awful lot of lv?? Alliance.
I hit at a Warrior for nearly 2 minutes with my fishing rod, he just stood there golfclapping me whilst the rest laughed and pointed.
Then a Rogue stunned me and they all ran off to attack somewhere else.

How humiliating, they couldn't even be bothered to kill me.
Still, beats being farmed for points on PVP

My level 10 hunter got the killing blow on one of those level 60's that raided Orgrimmar tonight.

He is now the proud owner of one honourable kill.

Damnit, every time I try that I get mauled instantly.

I love being a bear.

Is it worth starting another character on PvE then? I've already got four on Dragonmaw, but was put off from playing that server when I tried to grind a few experience points with my level 47 hunter and was immediately killed by a group of 50+ alliance.

Got killed needlessly today, but I'm still going good on Dragonmaw.

Im having fun still in PvP land. Fiegn Death is a wonderful thing. Im Lvl 34, so a lvl 37 tried destroying me and my pet. So i took hits from him as he did me...then i played dead and let him attack my pet.

He must have been a bit shocked when i got back up once his life was almost gone and peppered him with arrows.

Personally I don't mind being killed but I detest spendin so long walking to my corpse.

That goes for the old days too... more graveyards are needed or no resurrection sickness. Plus, walking to other places takes bloody ages.

Especially when you die in Hillsbrad and Ghost up in Stranglethorn Graveyard...

Damn them graveyard glitches :(

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
Wonderful...
... and so easy-to-use even for a technophobe like me. I had my website up in a couple of hours. Thank you.
