For those who used to play WoW

So, I've heard some people say they miss the days of Vanilla. DH and the guys have started on a private Vanilla server. So we can relive the days of Molten Core and expensive ground mounts.

  • Nice. Good old days.

  • Private server wouldn't cut it for me. I miss the community. Making friends with random strangers in troll ruins . Shammy tanking. LF1M SM. Duel parties. Barrens chat. Insert crying emote here.

  • Yup. It will be interesting. DH is scared of leveling again. Since Vanilla was brutal. However, if they get 5 people then they can easily do dungeons.

    You still get some of that. There is a few hundred people per server. So it's not as packed as the olden days. However, there is enough to do random dungeons and have a full 40 man MC raid group. I'm not participating. I have to work on my current characters in MOP, plus you know gestate and birth a child in the next few weeks. So, it will all be interesting.

  • I would get addicted all over again if it was like the good old days. MOP stuff can't hold my interest.

    I also think all the AW girls ruined it. 2 girls per guild was a nice limit. Now it's hard to find dreamy boys anywhere.

  • I only have been on level 25 guilds. So when people find out I'm a girl I get bombarded with PM's asking if I wanna cyber. Like... no. I don't do more than LFR though for now. We want to work up to getting into a decent guild with a 20 or 10 man roster. It just isn't in the books for us.

    Also, I really need to work on MOP. I want my darn Yak! Then I gotta save my pennies or beg DH for more money so I can get a super yak! Then try to get him to help me farm Ashes. I've always wanted that darn mount.

  • I miss when you actually had to pay attention to dungeons. Things like the Jailbreak quest and the whole Ony attunement chain.

    I do not miss the ridiculous amount of running back and forth you had to do in Molten Core.


    I haven't tried MOP.  My video card died so at the moment I'm working with an old integrated video card from the early 2000s.  Just checking mail is painfully choppy.

  • On my rp server it is all girls I swear. The main core of my wrath guild was female. I've got fb friends to prove it. My ally guild on the same server was all female too. That started my quest for dreamy boys.

    I haven't been asked to cyber in years. Even in goldshire on moon guard. There's just too much competition.

  • That's why I stick with regular PVP servers. Then join level 25 guilds for the benefits. They are usually full of guys who rarely ever seen or touched girls. It's pretty fun. However, I play cuz DH plays mostly. We raid together. Then again, our house is full of giant nerds.

  • DH just started playing again but if I don't have the energy to play with Kitiara then I certainly dont have the energy to play with him. It's rough meeting new people since it's all solo quests ans spammy random guild invites. I have no time to raid so I can't hunt out a good guild.
    image
  • Yeah that sucks. Too bad you guys don't roll on Mal'ganis. I'd love to have some people to play with besides DH and the guys. Though they are super helpful when it comes to getting transmog pieces. I have to get my druid up to run Serpentshrine. It's one of the few druid sets I like.

    My next random alt will be there if you'd like. I sure hope you are horde.

    Yup, horde all the way! Got 3 chars on Mal'ganis. My mains a mage. Then I have druid and lock as well. My next alt will be a Panda hunter.

  • My druids and locks never make it past the 20s. I do have 2 mages sitting at 85right now.
    image
  • I like druid and lock. I just like casters and ranged DPS. DH won't teach me how to heal though. He was his guild healing leader back in the good ole days until Wrath came out. So, now he is super judgmental on it and won't let me take his healing 101 course. So DPS it is!

  • Do you people play Diablo 3? Or is that the devil to WoW players?

  • I stopped playing at the end of Cata.. had a warrior prot/arms and a rogue. I enjoy melee DPS and tanking. 

    Sometimes I want to play again. Most of the time I don't.

    No, that game is just the devil. Played the beta (DH works in the video game industry, I've played lots of games). It kind of stunk. So we never downloaded our free copies that came with subscribing to WoW for a year.

    DH played until he was burnt out and sick of Whimsyshire but I don't have time to play games and PW it up here. It sure padded my friends list with real friends that are scared to play WoW though.

    I personally hate subscription based video games because they strongly encourage addictive behavior in me. I feel like if I'm paying for a service I need to get my money's worth, even if it's not remotely fun for me to play several hours a day, every day. I had that experience the two months I paid to play City of Heroes.

    I like D3, although I can understand some of the criticisms of it. I logged over 100 hours playing it but haven't logged on in days and don't really feel much of an itch to play.

    I feel ya. We play lots of games though. WoW is just our main MMO right now. We sometimes play some free to play MMO's. Like We've played Tera, DC UO, SWTOR, ect. Plus then there are the other games like Dota 2 and LoL that the guys play. DH tests video games for a living. So when a new game comes out, we try it.

  • I'm totally coming out of creepy lurkdome to join this conversation :P

    I quit after DD was born, just after Cata was released. I went back a few months ago and man oh man am I LOST. Don't even know where to begin... I was a healer back then (when it was fun), trying my hand at DPS now just to play some lowbie content.

    It's sad that my greatest achievements was full T2 and a Bear Mount lol. /sigh

  • My name Vespah was actually my WOW toon name. I was a druish princess, it's disheartening to know that only like 5 people in 5 years made the reference.
