Burning Crusade is by far my favorite version of WOW. For a lot of reasons, but primarily because the new zones were awesome and Druids/Paladins could actually tank. I will absolutely play on it.

Granted, my highest toon is a 27 mage. But i also have a 18 priest, 16 lock and 14 rogue. Every single orange or lower hoardie i have encountered has died. And most of the reds i see can be charmed into letting me live. Just bow, dance, beg, wave, etc... There have been a few red skull d1ckwad rogues here and there that gank lowbees on their way into DM or BFD or whatever... It's not terribly common so far from what i've seen. Just stay away from the Hot zones like STV.

Hehe. Noticed this yesterday too. I dinged 17 or 18 on my priest and couldn't spend my talent point. Tried relogging and no dice. Whatever. It worked the next day and i needed to get to bed regardless. In some ways i wish this happened every night (force me to sleep).

I think everyone that plays this project should chip in 5 bucks a head to buy the people running it a freaking massive Christmas present each year. I absolutely love Elysium and the people running it get mad props from me. They're literally philanthropists.

Isn't Darrow pretty much running as a retail "Normal" population server would in terms of player count? Not low... Not High... Just Normal.

I agree. I always enjoy leveling professions as i go. The big upside is no matter what profession you pick it WILL make your life much easier as you grind up to 60.

I mostly played alliance in retail and plenty of hoard too but definitely majority alliance. I wanted to roll hoard on this server but when i saw the slight (as said above) population advantage the hoard has it forced my hand and i stuck with old-faithful alliance. No regrets. It has definitely worked out well so far. But if i did roll that hoard i could definitely see myself having those same feelings as OP (missing the nostalgia of what i know better). I'll roll a hoardie on here some day too.

I play pretty late. Earliest is 10 PM EST and i usually go until about 2-3 AM EST. There are tons of seemingly N/A people (they all speak english) that play at these times. But that is interesting to see that EU and China (in their respective time slots) consist of most of the population.

I don't know about it being an addiction, but it sure as hell is bad for my sleeping patterns.

This is why every person that PMs you to sell gold is a lv. 10 paladin...

You will quickly find that there is an actual community here. Unlike retail where everything is cross server and instant que/travel/etc... The things you're worried about are the reasons to abandon retail. Your concerns (OP) are the reason people play here.

Pretty good trick TBH. Glad it didn't happen to me lol. Also, i'd log to a different toon before i pay anyone 1 copper for some crap like this.

Get a screen shot and report it.

It's the greater internet fckwad theory man. Normal Person + Anonymity + an Audience = Total Fckwad! The server is freaking great. I'm loving it. And i must concur with those above about player quality. People that play here know their stuff. They play here because they have all played lots of retail and miss the game the way it once was. So you're not going to see too many noobs if any tbh.

Thanks GNome! Definitely going to do it. Hover keybind sounds amazing!
