I'm a Warrior Night Elf on a private server. I'm waiting to get my copy of the game in the post before I find an offical server. The server I'm on is ok, its got its troubles, but it is free. So hopefully its very late or early next week I'll be out and about in Wow.

come to Shadow Council.

i can hook you up in a good Aussie/NZ Guild. we have people with various prefession's maxed out. so decent armor and weapons shouldn't be an issue!

Yeah I'll give it ago. I'm most likely going to go to medihv though, a US server. I know some people there already and they say you can get on any time unlike some of the Oceania servers.

I'm on Jubei'thos (aussie PvP server). Very few queues, and unlike US servers, you can actually run instances at peak aussie times. See the problem with US servers is you need to be online in the morning (our time) to be able to get groups.

Anyway, got a 53 priest on Jubei.

Thanks for the info guys. I'm not sure which server I will go to as I know some guys here have had upto a 4 hour wait to join an Oceania server. Although I'm thinking about running a trial on an official server as this private one I'm on is starting to shit me. It's not working at the moment and I'm wanting to play but got a 2 hour downlaod for the latest patch.

I've never had more than a 20 minute wait on Jubei'thos. And even then that was on the Easter long weekend.

Frostmourne maybe.

That's not entirely true.

I'm on Frostwolf which is a US server and i'm in an Aussie guild called Legion From Down Under and we raid at 8pm every Monday, Tuesday, wednesday, Thursday, Friday night. And Saturday 1pm and Sunday 1pm.

Monday = Blackwing Lair
Tuesday = Onyxia
Wednesday = First 6 Bosses in Molten Core
Thursday = Final 4 Bosses in Molten Core
Friday = Zul Gurrub
Saturday = Ahn'Qiraj
Sunday = Ahn'Qiraj

Basically you just sign up to which ever raids you want to go on. It doesn't matter if you don't go to some seeing as the guild has more than 350 Members so filling the spots is never a problem.

Fun Fun Fun

I'm on Jubei'thos. Just keep an eye out for Warriorbunny, an elf chick. Damn thing wouldn't let me have FluffyBunny.

I am dreynorbolious from the clan nerdsneverroot. I have 1000000000 power and my weapon is my meat love sword. Fear my wrath!

Is that a two handed sword norbs?

r8response · Post by **r8response** » Mon Apr 24, 2006 10:48 am

i love people like Norbs, who completely write a game off, without even trying it!

[rant]
sure there is a monthly fee, but im glad to pay it. unlike LFS which has had buttfuck all updates in the last 6 months. WoW has had new content added to it in every patch they've released! but then the obligatory arguement will come that there is only 3 of them developing the game compared to blizzards numerous people.

so what, scawen eric and victor will have made a pretty penny from LFS and give barely anything back in return

Dr. Pain · Post by **Dr. Pain** » Fri May 12, 2006 1:06 am

I'm kind of hooked on WoW at the moment.

Rots · Post by **Rots** » Fri May 12, 2006 12:57 pm

I prefer Neverwinter Nights, only because it's free online

WoW is bloody great, but for me paying a monthly fee to play a game is beyond reason. Already have to pay too much to buy the game in the first place... if I was loaded, then sure.

Actually monthly fee games shit me to tears. I am a huge Final Fantasy fan but can't enjoy the latest FF games because I can't justify paying a monthly fee to play a computer game.

LFS has never really suited the ADD "need new stuff now!" mentality...
a good game shouldn't need constant updates to be a good game...

Yeah slack bastards!!!!.....they have only given us hours/month/years of online racing sim euphoria for a very minimal cost......

Ã‚Â£24 isn't that much to pay for a game (LFS). On the other had when you pay $75.95 for WoW you only get to play for 2 months. Although I can't talk because I was on EverCrack back in the day (and also SWG).

limbo · Post by **limbo** » Fri May 12, 2006 3:46 pm

i object to needing to pay to play.
there is no single player function in the game. if you dont pay you dont play at all.
i imagine this dissapointed and annoyed many people who bought the game as a gift for someone else.
think of all those grandmothers that saved up and bought it for 'johnny' for christmas only to find that they had been 'dudded'

i have payed to play games online and i will again, it ensures a resonableing stable connection when the server is a 'payed for dedicated to this game' server.
but to not be able to play at all (legally) unless you pay.... it is almost extortion or 'planned obsolescence' or some such thing that is against free trade laws.

I think a monthly subscription is fine as long as the content keeps evolving, but the biggest insult and show of arrogance is that they expect you to pay full price for the game client as well!!!!

Double Dipping is not on in my opinion.......its like paying for a kick in the balls.

maybe blizzard should take Eve-Onlines approach. they allow you a 14 day trial. and if you like the game, you continue to subscribe. no need to buy the game, just download the client. all 1.8 gigs worth.

you all my be against paying monthly for a game, and i respect that. its your choice. but before you completely bag the game, give it a try. go to k-mart or something like it, and get the 2 dollar trial. if you like it that much and might like to try it further. i can hook you up with an account to give it a try so you don't have to go out and buy the full software.
