I used to play about 10 years ago. I miss it. Not sure I can bear to start all over again and not sure my PC is up to it.

I got a bit put off by other players being twats in a dungeon I was in. I'm not very good at it Blush I levelled very slowly up to 60 something but I understand the level cap is now 110! Does anyone else play?

OK this has blown my mind. I feel like someone who's woken up after 6 years in a coma

I raid in a top 200 guild (although I'm pregnant so will be stopping raising early next year). I also met my partner on WoW six years ago :) So I have a lot to thank the game for!

Let me know where the guild is and I'll build a character to get there.

Oh my god. I played from burning crusade up to warlords of draenor and stopped 2 years ago when I had my first son. The last expansion really appealed to me but I couldn't as had just given birth again. I would love to go back but now I play overwatch with my husband in the evenings as its less commitment. Really miss it though.

Jorah · 27/06/2018 23:13

I've found my old guild and requested to join.

I've actually had to turn it off as its blowing my mind!

I'll build a character and join a MN guild. Let me know where!

Mat leave has to be good for something other than feeding the baby, right? Grin

I’m not sure why I clicked on this thread as I have no idea what any of you are talking about...but think I may now want to play...Confused

Omg this brings back memories. I had a human priest, gnome mage and gnome warlock back in the day.

I played 2004-2011. Although in the last year or two of that I wasn’t hardcore raiding as I once was. It took over my life and almost ruined my marriage.

MomofCrazyLex · 28/06/2018 15:14

Oh my. Lol found this post. Im actuallyvplaying right now.

Fiintastic · 28/06/2018 15:41

Notice none of us count months or weeks.

We give our dates like a tour of duty Grin

DS (of the top spec pc) is increasing his shifts at work..... I could get five shifts in For the Alliance....

NewGrandad · 29/06/2018 11:41

DW is off on her works night out tonight. Would have been good to get a chance to watch the WC but I suppose it'll have to be WoW. Sad

SilverDoe · 29/06/2018 11:59

You bloody women! I’m renewing my subscription when I get home from work! Grin

SteamTrainsRealAleandOpenFires · 29/06/2018 16:15

Ok I've got a charter for an Alliance guild on Eonar called "None", I'll be out side the bank in the trade district.

SteamTrainsRealAleandOpenFires · 29/06/2018 16:21

Oh my name is:- Barabrith.

YouTheCat · 29/06/2018 16:39

I have 3 bars to go till 110 on my dk.

I met my dp playing WoW about 10 years ago. We were in the same guild. We've been together over 8 years now. Grin

My Dd plays too (she's 23) and keeps getting me to boost her.

ByeGermsByeWorries · 29/06/2018 21:52

Ive been playing since the beginning and I'm still hooked 🙈 I play on silvermoon A and Turalyon A. My dad plays he's 63 and I've convinced my partner to play and now
He's hooked too
Grin

YouTheCat · 29/06/2018 23:12

Got to 110. Grin

Meatbadger · 29/06/2018 23:28

This all sounds very exciting. I’ve never played - where would I start?

YouTheCat · 29/06/2018 23:31

Start with googling Blizzard and having a look to see if you think you'd enjoy it. It can be as time consuming as you want.

I play when I want.

MotsDHeureGoussesRames · 29/06/2018 23:45

Just typed a big reply and wifi dropped Angry. Lvl 100 warrior here. Not played in a good few yrs. Not a raider - too many twats, too stressful. Like WoW but prefer LOTRO. Lvl 110 Champion and 87 Minstrel.

MetalMidget · 29/06/2018 23:50

FOR THE HORDE!

I've not played for a couple of years. I used to head up a 'casual' raiding guild. We'd raid three times a week, each raid lasting three hours. My definition of casual nowadays is a very different beast! Have been tempted to dip back in, kind of lost interest around Warlords of Draenor.

Knittinganewme · 30/06/2018 07:16

I didn't like Draenor but I do like Legion. I'm a new player so Battle for Azeroth will be the first expansion that I've waited for.

user1483387154 · 30/06/2018 07:20

Still playing sporadically. Been on since 1st week of vanilla

TheQueef · 30/06/2018 10:07

I ventured into the front bedroom to see how I'd fit in DS pc set up.

Amateur doesn't even have a fan for long sessions. Hmm

Argh it's pulling me...
