Who still plays WOW, but more importantly, who still plays on the Destromath realm. That is the realm we as a forum agreed to play on after all.
Anyone thinking of coming back with the release of WOTLK?
Or is anyone thinking of starting WOW sometime?

err idk.. Im affraid to come back.. I would have to start over and I do not feel like waisting my life but i really really wanna finish the story line so maybe. I've been definitely thinking about it for awhile.

Well, I'm coming back. I decided its worth it. I more for the Lore though and rping it. Also Coming with some friends hopefully hitting 70 in a week (x3 exp and power level since i have already experienced most of the game except for the recent patch )
i came back a while ago, but i'm playing on European servers. The latest patch is extremely awesome for every char and it looks like they reduced the xp needed to get from 60 to 70 too.
I play on Sen'jin and Silvermoon, but splitting my time in any more directions would cause a rift in space and time, thus flipping the game world and real world around, which would get us all stuck in WoW and then promptly killed by level 1 critters.
The only thing i don't like about WoW is just how technical people get when it comes to specs and gear and whatnot. I hate being told that i'd have a extra half a percent damage if i did this or that...the whole point of the skill tree is to allow different playstyles, but a lot of wow players just want to tell everyone else what they're doing wrong. (ironically, my build could easily be considered a cookie-cutter build, yet i still get suggestions from people i've never talked to before who just wanna give their two cents at random)
when i started playing, i was under the assumption that it could be solo'd, like Diablo. I was fairly disappointed when i realised how heavily WoW depends on party play because
1. i prefer to solo, to see what i'm capable of, not what everyone else is capable of
2. i don't like the idea of having to join at speciffic times...it makes it feel like a classroom, or sports practice or something instead of a video game
3. i work night shift, which means if i go on a run, it almot has to be with a pick-up group, so i can't get to know people's playstyles as i go
4. i often play video games to releive stress, but dealing with people on wow can feel like a chore or a second job sometimes
but by the time i realised all this, i was already addicted, so i contnue to play, just doing pvp battlegrounds and daily quests

Stay.
You don't always know where you stand,
'Till you know that you won't run away.
There's something inside me that feels...
Like breathing in sulfur.
As denoted in this thread we, as a forum whole, decided to play on 1, maybe two Realms. That being (Horde on) Destromath and (Alliance on) Anetheron. But it seemed few people, and by few I really just mean me, actually practiced that.
So with WOTLK looming, I asked who still plays

Yes, I too was to understand you could solo it if you wanted to, with the exception of certain areas like dungeons. I often find myself being on my own, I was rather disappointed to learn how badly oriented towards team play it is. That or just a few more potions would suffice.
1. Generally I prefer to solo, but I see nothing wrong with joining forces to whomp on people in an arena or battleground. I would enjoy getting my victory in Warsong Gulch (or wherever) a bit more, knowing some of you were by my side.
2. Not too sure where that came from, I don't think I ever said people here had to play within these hours or on these days.
3. I work crap hours too. But if I playing with people here, at least they will understand if I must leave. They will have probably read somewhere what commitments I have in the Real World.
Play Styles can be diagnosed to a point from a person's personality. And their personality can be diagnosed (in part) by how they post on a forum, thus a persons play style can be diagnosed by how they post on a forum.
4. You are dealing with people you don't know or people who don't want to talk to you. People here are far more liking to talk to you than most other players you come across in WOW. Unless the words they say are "Duel Me" "Fight Me" "Duel" and "STFU NOOB"
My intention with having us all on one realm was to avoid that.

I've been thinking about it. WoW is unlike any other game I've ever played, because to me, it's not the most fun when I play it. It's most fun when I think about playing it. Consequently, it always seems like such a good idea to start again, because thinking about playing it again makes it seem fun.
Then I snap back to reality and realize I definately do not have the time to play. So it probably won't happen.
PlugY for Diablo II allows you to reset skills and stats, transfer items between characters in singleplayer, obtain all ladder runewords and do all Uberquests while offline. It is the only way to do all of the above. Please use it.

I'm playing on Anetheron Alliance. Got my own guild going and we're gonna kick ass when wrath comes out. Me Tehstickleman and Carloseus from this site are all in the same guild. Rebel Alliance.

What I don't like is people that can't take some criticism from someone who knows a little more about what is going on. People do take the game too seriously, but if you got one spot left and you have to choose the guy who's speced for the best damage or the guy who'd rather show up in pvp gear and spec, who are you gonna choose? But yeah, there is definitely room for casual players after wrath with the new 10man raid options and what not.

lol why would you play a massively multiplayer online game if you wanna solo everything? and you can actually solo up to 70, its not that hard, it'd just be a little more time i guess.
