hahah I gave up this game ages ago... expension f**ked it up. Since I bought my S15, I rather cruise around than playing hours on this game.

BTW, if anyone wants to buy lvl 70 shaman let me know :) it's at Blackrock server with 4 banker characters ( could be 5, i can't remember )

I am trying to quit, account ran out the other night and i am leaving it for a while. I really want to sell the account to someone and get it out of my hair as i have been stuck on the game since early 2005... It would be nice to say bye bye but i think it is not as hard if i know i do not own an account anymore instead of saying... oh how sad it is sitting there inactive...all alone!

So if anyone is interested in an account let me know =p

Characters on the account that matter:

70 Rogue

http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.x...n&n=Chloros

(wearing pvp gear atm) 1765AP in pve gear un buffed.

Armory doesn't seem to be working properly at the moment but there is also a 56 Undead Warrior and a 19 Twink Warlock (still needs a few enchants)

Edited by D-G

Came across your little forum and thought I would leave a few words...

Left WoW about 2 months ago. Have about 12 months of playing all up, quitting twice in that time. Have a 70 rogue with flying mount and a 62 mage. Will return one day to have a bit of fun with new content. Until then, I'm playing Teamfortress2, best pvp game ever!!

Best part about WoW for me was leveling up (experiencing the game) and playing the expansion. Expansion is the best part for most players. Blizz have learned what is good and bad in the game 'experience' and it shows. [Need lev58 to enter the expansion area.]

I wouldn't recommend playing WoW if you have a 56k modem or a crappy computer. Game shines with adsl and a decent comp. You can get an 8meg connection for about $60 these days. 1gig of RAM also helps a LOT in WoW. After that, a good vid card is recommended.

WoW is also the most popular MMO out there, but its not the best. The game is old and shows once you have played some of the newer MMO games out there. Its by no means the worst MMO either and I did find it fun, although it has many aspects that I don't like.

$15 a month to play this game isnt much. Its very expensive for a games company to run such a game and a large portion go's into keeping the game running and updating it. You can quit playing, come back 6 months later and have fresh content to play with.

Words of Wisdom:

I tell new people to pick 3 classes to play and get each one to level 20. After that pick your favorite and play ONLY that character to 70. The reason being, there are many aspects in the game that you HAVE to do, and can be rather repetitive or annoying at times. Best to have one character, play till your bored then choose another game.

With WoW based on a "reputation" system, getting your rep up with more then one character can be VERY annoying. Having played a few MMO games, I think this is not a game to have more then one toon.

One more thing, I find pvp servers for hardcore players only. The amount of time you spend 'dead' can be a lot and a waste of good playing time. You need the best of everything to win most games so Normal servers are the way to go. Use Battlegrounds if you want to pvp. Its a lot fairer and no ghost walking!!

My 2 cents...

I completely disagree with "Expansion is the best part for most players."

Most people quit when expansion hit the stores, it ruined every single Rank 14 PvPer's dream of having unique gear. Every single High Warlord i knew on my server (and Grand Marshal) all quit when they got rid of ranks and added the honor for Rank 14 stuff. The expansion ruined a lot of peoples fun including mine, the only reason i still play is because i am hooked, but i cant stand TBC. No more 40 mans sucks, free gear around every corner sucks. People no longer have to work for gear, you just get it handed to you for little to nothing. More tiers have come out in 11 months then WoW did in over 2 years and every tier now comes with a new season of arena gear making the previous season bought from Honor points which can be 5/5 bought in a week of farming. (Honor caps 10k a day - 65k all up)

Leveling now can be done 1-60 in a week even by noobs just starting out, 60-70 took me 3 days after release, how challenging is that? Personally before the experience buff last patch my 56 warrior had 3 days /played that includes grinding mobs when bored of questing and using him as a temporary low level bank before changing my mind.

The game really turned to shit when they released the expansion and will only burn out extremely soon, if i had another MMORPG to play that met the graphics and control of WoW i would no hesitate to play it instead, thus why when Aion comes out, it really is finally time for me to move on. The most fun times i have ever had playing the game was when i first started out, people weren't f**king morons, people were ready to put in extreme amounts of effort to get what they deserve. Now it is completely opposite and i hate it.

there already consider another expansion to stuff wow up and theres a new class called death night or something and to get that class u have to sacrifice a lvl 65+ toon. knowing wow players they have like 4 or more

i got 6 at my disposal

1 is in tier 6

1 is in tier 5

1 is in tier 4

1 is kara ready

1 is pvp arena 2 gear

1 has nub gear

I dont play hardcore anymore now, last time i got on was i think 4 days ago ( considering i use to run a end game raiding guild and was on 7 days a week and updating content for my guildies during work hours....4 days is a lot)

Now i hit the gym and get out more.. feels great.

I've sadly started up again haha. Levelling an undead lock on Frostmourne. Name is irtehpwn. My previou chars included a 60 mage, 50 pally, 51 hunter.. They are all alliance chars on Blackrock. If anyone wants to swap accounts let me know, cbf levelling a char on Frostmourne to be honest, but I've got friends on there that want me to come.

I agree with SKY RYAN, all i logon my rogue to do now is pvp... pve is useless and time wasting, also puts you in a lot more of a stressful situation (to be on time, know strats, have mods and all that). Since BC release i could tell that raiding would never be the same. Can only imagine what the new expansion will bring =p

God bless my new ps3!

I havent had the time to play recently. Have a 70 Druid on Windrunner.

Was raiding naxxramas pre-expansion, got to 70 (which I hated as my gear that I worked so bloody hard for become worthless). Nonetheless, now I just dont have the time to play like i used to, so I only log on occasionally for a bit of PvP or to catch up with friends.

Game requires a lot of time and I started in November 2004 and played alot until mid 2007. Anyone around here on Windrunner?

  • 4 weeks later...

haha ^^^

Yeah I used to play ages ago like 05 early 06. Had a 60 rogue.

Quit for a few months then started playing again. Got a lock to 70. Quit again for a few months. Now I'm playing again. Got my shadow priest to 62 on Thaurissan then realised shadow priests got pwned in group pvp haha (not talking about arena). They're good fun pve but yeah the whole 'every spell is on a huge cooldown' thing really annoyed me so retired that and leveling up another rogue.

BTW hunters are op

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
