WoW Has Sucked Me Back In
I became a WoW fan before WoW was even out of closed beta. I would spend hours searching the forums, reading what everyone else was saying about it, keeping up with the EQII vs. WoW debates, and rushing to sign up for Open Beta the second it opened up. I pre-ordered the Collector’s Edition and started playing on Day 1.
Then I went to France for a couple of weeks, and when I returned, all of my friends and fellow guildies were like 10 levels ahead of me. I tried to keep up to no avail. I tried to do quests and instances with them, but I kept dying because I was too low. And then it happened: I stopped playing.
So, my poor, sad, depressed toon, Exhile, was left at level 33 for over a year. I did log in from time to time, but didn’t really get back into it. Until now.
The other day, WoW sucked me back in. I rolled a new character: Aelora, Night Elf, Druid, herbalist/alchemist. I’ve been in love ever since. Not only that, but the linked auction houses are like crack. I pretty much live at the one in Darnassus (best. addition. ever).
Anyway, if anyone is on the Elune server, you’ll find me under Aelora (currently level 14) and Exhile (still level 33 - but almost 34).
Matt is also there, all spiffied out in his fishing hat. But he told me not to tell you guys that because MMOs ruin his rep. I probably wasn’t supposed to tell you that either.
I’m gonna go check my auctions now.

Repeat after me: Guild Wars!! :) I really think both you and Erin should join the guild I’m in and we should all wreak havoc or something.
Though it would be difficult to play both as they both consume a lot of time. I’ve been really considering getting WoW though. Maybe its not too late. :)
