We are a legion of "Comic Book Guy" types, and this is about as close to a female as some of these blokes can get for a few years. Just run if any of them try and "cyber" with you.It's sad, but they probably have some sort of idea that I'm 5'10", 135 pounds and gorgeous because that's what my avatar looks like.
Disturbing.
Hawkwing74 wrote:This is a bizarre concept but does anyone play with female characters? I have 3 males and 2 females and I noticed that other players are drastically kinder to the female ones. They go out of their way to heal them, make better trades with them, etc.

Edit: this may only apply to human avatars, as orc and troll females are not very attractive to fanboys.

I have such a variety of characters that none of them are very similar to me...besides I'm going with the George Martin naming scheme so it's hard to run an orc or troll and have it be a Martin-esque name.I would never play as a woman's character.. so i naively assume others wouldn't either, unless they were girls or trying to trick others..

Yeah i have gotten slaughtered there a good 10 times now in the past two days. If only 4 Pallys would come along then we'd have a chance lol.

I'm trying my damnedest to power level a Priest to make sure that doesn't happen again. I'm on spring break, so hopefully it won't take another month.

Heh i just finshed the quests for zullfarak a week or so ago. You get awesome quest rewards, carrot on a stick, nice ring, etc but it is difficult. We had a lvl 60 mage, which helped alot, but our healer was a lvl 50 or so shaman, so it wasnt a cakewalk. Ive been wanting to do mauradon but havent gotten a group together for it yet.
DJK wrote:I don't think any of the TR regulars are that high level yet. Most of the TR people I group with are low - mid 30's right now, so we're nowhere near tackling Zul'Farrak.
Hawkwing74 wrote:Any miners notice bugs where you try to mine copper and get stuck until you logoff?...slightly annoying. On another note, mining is incredibly difficult to do compared to some of the other professions. Monsters constantly guard mines...
I got skinning, tailoring, leather, up over 100 with almost no effort, but that damn mining and blacksmithing
Lol i dunno, carrot on a stick seems like a crappy reward for all this. 3% movement speed is nothin for me. Considering i can tele to SW, IF, and Darnassus and hearth to Gadget. Doesnt take me long to get anywhere. Hopefully by the end of the week i will be at 50 and convince a bunch of other 50+ people to come along. Even then sometimes its hard to get a group together that clicks.
