I am hoping Tinkerbellesmum will be along in a min to organise this, seeing as I know nothing

Yeah, tinkerbelle that really confused me. Was bad enough after last time when we had to re-do all talents.

Think I may have a talent calculator thing stored somewhere to work it out before I do it, iyswim.

Will do hunter first then tackle pally. Also have very low level shaman and druid so this may take awhile...

TinkerBellesMum · 05/11/2008 17:16

I'm just doing them as I come to them, fortunately I only have two that I've played much so the others are low enough level that they won't be too much hassle.

They've done stupid things too like getting rid of human perception and replacing it with Every Man for Himself which allows you to escape traps and stuns. It's because people complain about racial traits being unfair, other races complained about the perception and humans complained that gnomes have (can't rememebr the name for it) an escape trap skill. Next they'll be making everyone a healer because it's not fair only Draneis can heal!

TheInvisibleGuyWentBANG · 05/11/2008 18:45

Argg..Have gone on to sort talents and someone I used to play with alot is chatting to me. Keep going to do MN smileys!!

And struggling to get used to the txt talk again!

This could be ammusing

Flamesparrow · 05/11/2008 21:54

I glared at DH last night for saying "grats" to me. It is bad enough typing in txt spk ffs without saying it across the room!!!

Am Flamesparrow btw

TinkerBellesMum · 05/11/2008 23:26

LOL Flame! I don't use txt on WoW, but do type grats. The latest irritating thing is being told when people in the guild have completed a totally pointless achievement! TBD has decided to explore all the lower areas he hadn't got into the last corners of so I'm getting his area achievements all the time. Of course you get people "grats"ing each other when they've got a new pet or explored an area or done a low level instance.

Do we have any volunteers to loan the MN guild the gold to start up? We need to know who's doing it so we know which realm to use. Like I said, I'm happy to do it on Earthen Ring.

Flamesparrow · 06/11/2008 00:04

DH says he can get the gold for Hellscream (I think he is planning on being an honorary MNer )

TheInvisibleGuyWentBANG · 06/11/2008 14:01

Been working again

Dh has pinched all my gold while I've nto been playing but can get it back from him.

He's just bought a guild off someone, only his alts and one of mine in just now. Wonder if I can persuade him to change the name, and we'd have a ready made guild. (can you even change guild names??)

Flamesparrow · 06/11/2008 15:55

DH is just checking funds now - he has been working all afternoon on it

Flamesparrow · 06/11/2008 19:04

We have the gold

We now need a Guild Name and 10(?) diff accounts to sign the charter (I can't sign as mine is still trial)

TheInvisibleGuyWentBANG · 06/11/2008 19:42

cool . Well I can sign, and use one of dh's alts to sign so there's 2.

Dh just in from work and has had a shite day so have to go make soothing noises for a wee while, but he'll be logging on in a bit. If you say to your dh to add shirikin and cruachan as friends, he cna see when he's on and /w him to sign.

I'll fire up lappy and sign it too.

Flamesparrow · 06/11/2008 19:53

Do we have a name?

Have told him to add you both

TheInvisibleGuyWentBANG · 06/11/2008 20:18

Oh god I'm crap with names.

Erm, a mn realted one, or a more wow related one? Not asking dh, as all his names are scotland related.

Is taking me ages to get all my buttons and spells sorted.

Flamesparrow · 06/11/2008 20:25

we tend to have lots of wales related ones for the same reason

Erm, wow and MN?

TheInvisibleGuyWentBANG · 06/11/2008 21:02

Hellscream netters?

Legion of The Norks

oh no, I think we should call it AIBU.

Flamesparrow · 06/11/2008 21:25

I love AIBU!!!!

TheInvisibleGuyWentBANG · 06/11/2008 21:47

Is AIBU a mn thing, or a normal expression on forums?

BEcause, if it is just a mn thing, can be sure there will be no other guilds of that name.

Have just realised I can't play wow on lappy without proper mouse. far too fiddly

Flamesparrow · 06/11/2008 21:59

i always use full keyboard and mouse with lappy anyway.

I think AIBU is just MN

Flamesparrow · 06/11/2008 22:12

I forget to read the little box... erm, Hi

TheInvisibleManDidIt · 06/11/2008 22:13

Will dig out mouse tomorrow. Can manage with the keyboard.

Off to bed. Bloody working again tomorrow

Dh is on WoW the now, if your dh wants to /w him.

TinkerBellesMum · 07/11/2008 17:08

AIBU is and MN thing. We could always just call ourselves MumsNet/ MumsNetters (as long as we're not going to upset MNHQ) but AIBU would be really funny .

Should we set up a forum for the guild? There's often a lot of things to discuss and I think it could be difficult running a guild through here.

What sort of realm is Hellscream?

TinkerBellesMum · 07/11/2008 17:10

TheInvisibleGuyWentBANG tell me about it! TBD has got himself a new laptop and it has a proper kbd on it with / and Num Lock! I'm so jealous!

TheInvisibleManDidIt · 07/11/2008 17:32

My lappy has proper keyboard TBM, just can't play without mouse.

It's got built in mic too, so is great for skyping during runs. (haven't tried the talk through WoW yet)

Yeah, think we do need somewhere other than here to discuss guild, but then if we can get as far as setting one up, we can just use guild chat and mail on game.

Hellscream is a 'normal' realm. I do some bgs for gear, but not very good at the pvp type play.

Tonight is our family night, so will be off for pizza and dvd with the boys as soon as dh is home, but back online around 9ish

Flamesparrow · 07/11/2008 19:23

aibu is born just needs the sigs

TheInvisibleManDidIt · 07/11/2008 19:37

Yay!!

Dh just got home 10 mins ago or so, had very stressfull day and boys have already started doing their own thing upstairs, so we are now having family night tomorrow, so will either be on here or on wow this evening. Dh will be ongame all the time, just /w him and he'll sign with one of his alts. (he's been told )

TinkerBellesMum · 07/11/2008 20:51

I tend to use the kbd most. Sometimes go to the mouse when I'm being lazy (not that I think the mouse is lazy, just the way I play it) and of course it's vital to playing the Bejewelled addon!

I shall go and sign up with Hellscream ASAP. Not sure what I shall call my character yet, but I'll post when I've decided.

My guild uses Vent to talk to each other, the in-game voice chat isn't that good, I don't know about other types of voice chat.
