A friend and I got to talking about our characters stories... which lead to... This thread, on my guild's forums. None of us are roleplaying our characters, but over time... They just develop their own stories and personalities!

More people than we initially thought joined in, and more are planning to add stories when they have the time.

So ladies, what are your non-RP toons back stories?

I am hearing and seeing a lot of people getting their accounts hacked lately and thought I'd share this "program" that was shown to me by a programmer friend of mine about a year ago after I thought I had gotten a keylogger on my computer.

It's called KL Detector and it is very very simple to use.
I'm not sure if anyone on here has used it before or has any feedback on it (positive or negative). It's just another option to keep your computers clean.

http://dewasoft.com/privacy/kldetector.htm

I play horde on Dawnbringer, a troll hunter by the name of Juzelle. For some reason lately horde has been demolishing the alliance in wintergrasp. and by demolishing I mean playing keep-away 5 times in a row. We coordinate on vent and work together in teams, and have a group of dedicated defenders while a crack team takes out their towers. like clockwork every time.

A couple guildies, my friend gretchen & her boyfriend(resto shaman & DK), have taken to a habit of flying around searching for stragglers after wintergrasp is over. It's especially fun whenever there's a fishing daily in wintergrasp. We're the ones who have zero fear about chasing people into their base, the ones who come out of the lake with army of the dead, the hunter that drops from the sky and lays all her traps on top of you at once. Yes, we are THOSE jerks. Hello :3

Every-post wintergrasp is hilarious. deathgripping people in midair, harassing people while they fish. chains of icing flight form druids to lava-burst them out of the sky. I haven't had this much fun in pvp since arathi basin was first released. I wouldn't call it griefing, as there's often 5 on 3, 10 on 3. we die alot. we kill alot of people. It's wintergrasp, if you don't want to risk pvp, there are safer places to mine and fish (hence why i never mine or fish there, lol!).

Recently we've had a number of alliance players making horde level 1's to come yell at us, but the majority of them come over not to yell, butto tell us how entertaining we are. We recently had an alliance druid, Cuddlybear from the raid guild 'Azeroth Sentinels', come onto our vent to chat with us. She said "these are the most exciting fishing dailies I've ever done! I kept trying to come /hug you guys but that damn shaman kept killing me". We chatted about alliance and horde, people, and raiding, the server.

Score! we made a friend! Last night we were at it again with this nasty mage, lock, boomkin & double rogue combo. I think we fought them on and off for almost an hour and a half post wintergrasp. somewhere in there we ended up running into a hunter. he and I went toe to toe a number of times, and I barely scraped by by the skin of my teeth. He logged over all irrate to challenge me to a duel, but what he found, much to his surprise, was some comraderie & positive communication. I think i talked to him for maybe 2 & 1/2 hours. Score! another friend! I honestly wish I knew more alliance players on our server :D

So, if you ever run into a little 3 man pvp group in WG on dawnbringer, a group full of cutthroats that chase you all the way to the graveyard, or yank your out of the air, bear this in mind: We're not there because we hate you.

We're there because we love you. We love you TO DEATH. Come say hi! <3

...well, if you say so, Mr. T!

ETA And an article! Thanks theatrophyannie

Hello lovely ladies and lurking gets,

I come to you to ask for help with my long neglected druid. When I first starting playing a year ago, I initially rolled a druid. I got her to 35 and fell in to the grasp of the dreaded "alta-holism"!! Now, three 80's and 6 "20-something" toons later, I have decided to make nice with my druid and level her. After a discouraging couple of level's trying feral (don't know why, but it bored me out of my mind at this level) I almost gave up on her again. At a friend's suggestion (she is now 80 and dual-specced feral/resto) I am trying balance to help me level.

What I need is a link to a good leveling balance talent tree. I did go back through the older druid posts, but kept seeing feral feral feral resto feral resto resto feral. Can someone please link their talent tree? I'm currently level 37 and want to move on up fairly quickly, but am not sure how to go down the balance road. In addition to talent designations, any other suggestions would be most welcom!. My current 80's are a huntard (bless her even though she is "challenged" - I love her and kitty so), a DK and an arcane mage (thx to your suggestions, she has become my fav and a true force to be reckoned with!). I know my druid will be a whole different "ball of wax", so I want to do right by her.

Much thanks in advance for your help!

But this happened a year ago and I just had to take a picture, since we were on the subject of hax. Read the text. Also, as a side note, this guild no longer exists, and neither does this character.

Apparently our guild tank's ex-wife was pissed off, so she messed with his toons. I contacted a GM but since I'm not him they couldn't really do anything.

When he signed on he was laughing about it, though, being the good sport he is - she was no good at the hax and ended up getting her own account perma-banned.

But it goes to show hell hath no fury...o.O

Quick question ladies - I'm an officer in my guild and have been semi-in charge of scheduling retro raids. I've got an AQ20 raid scheduled for Thursday night this week. I didn't think there was an attunement for this one but someone mentioned there is a quest to open the gates? I thought this was a server-first sort of thing and that that quest was no longer needed. Is that correct or had I better get my butt in gear before Thursday so we can actually open the gates?

I've looked everywhere online but no site has been able to tell me definitively that the quest is no longer needed to get in. Thanks in advance for all your help, ladies! ♥

A while back I posted a thread that I hoped would generate some tips and tricks on RP... recently on my server there's a project to find and investigate how the RP is on the server. I thought others might like to have a look-see at the project too and hopefully contribute their own experiences in trying to drum up random RP.

Did you find you got ignored on a certain race or class? did your level seem to make a difference? What was the server type?

Hokay so. My name is Cate and I'm an altaholic. -.-

After running around last night on my human roque smashing things and then eventually running out of quests (because I'm an uber noob) - My boyfriend decides to be the sweetheart know-it-all WoW player that he is and let me make a death knight on his account (he has 2 80's and the rest are all 50+) -

So he deletes his 56 "Bigmeany" and I go to town setting everything up for my new pretty undead Death Knight *squee*

OMG I have never had so much fun on WoW in my whole life - This is going to make me strive with my main and get her to 56 so I can make one on my account - The way the quests are set up for DK's are so straightforward and easy to interpret and holy crap are the sayings hilarious - I was laughing the whole time I played ("I..I.. I think I pooped!" hahahahha)

So.. this is my little rant on how much I <3 the WoW makers for creating the DK :D

The Plaguechill guild got a server-first on Khadgar this weekend. But since I'm not in Plaguechill, this post is about my personal Kel-firsts that happened. ;)

I decided late last week that I wanted to raid, so I started joining pugs with a vengeance this weekend. Background: Keleili is my disc priest main.

( 3 days. 5 raids. 1 successful clear. )

TL;DR - I healed a lot of failed pug raids this weekend, including a 10-ToC, which turned out to be ToGC, and they asked me to dps, but I didn't have the gear, so I failed, and they replaced me, which was depressing. Then some guildies ran HHoS with me and made me feel good about my healing abilities again. I <3 my guild.

... is OK when you can finally have the mount you've wanted for over a year, right? :D

( Screenies +2 )

Wow_ladies, I seek guidance. But then again, when don't I?

My boyfriend and I don't get to spend much time playing together (especially now, when my game card has run out and I am moving in a week, but back when I was online...), mainly because I work two jobs and we both enjoy raiding together...but raiding together does REALLY equate playing together, if my rambling makes sense anywhere outside my head.

To that effect, we have decided (for the lolz) to start 2v2ing when I get back in game. I play a Disc Priest, he plays a Prot warrior.

Except I don't really know what I am doing. So...Um. Help?

http://tinyurl.com/qxnkzp
That right thar is my current Disc spec. Are there changes that I need to make to it that will prepare me better for arenas and without gimping me in PVE?

Additionally, do you ladies have any tips, pointers, or blogs that you can give me that will help me not to be a complete failure in the arenas? The internet is a scary place, and I don't want to be caught alone in a dark cyber alley with some shady blog.

Oh...and..I haven't really PvPed since my priest was 29, so I don't know what I need to do re: gear. Is my PvE gear acceptable, or should I start saving tokens to buy stuff in Dalaran?

I am trying to read the Disc guide poosted here, but I can't stay in front of the computer long, and it keeps crashing when I try to print. -.- . I'll try to get it to work, but any additional info......

I can't find it now but someone posted a screenshot the other day and in it was a leveling addon, kind of like tourguide, but it was very detailed..

go to xx,xx, kill 3 of "these mobs"

Anyone know the name of this mod?

I like bug hunting, and no, I don't mean silithus :3

wall-walking, geometry climbing, lost grounds, call it whatever you will. I love discovering little cracks in blizzard's finely wrought world, and seeing sights that few rarely are even aware of. There's a thrill to exploring all the places you're not supposed to go. Shatterspear Village, the Elwynn waterfall camp, Old Silithus, the Stormwind wall, Old Ironforge, Hyjal, Gilneas, good times :3.

So it was with great surprise that a friend of mine and I were out pvping when we ran into the most surreal glitch I've seen in 5 years of playing this game. This is legitimately the strangest thing I've ever seen in any MMO. It was completely on accident, and the both of us were equally surprised when it happened.

The short version:
My buddy's DK & I were driving off a pesky rogue in the crossroads who had been griefing our level 20 something alts. Someone was attacking Sen'jin Village, so my buddy breaks out his chopper, I hop in his sidecar, and we hauled ass over to senjin, cutting across the ratchet bay toward durotar. As we were path-of-frosting our way across the water, the ratchet/booty bay boat pathed through us. Instead of phasing through us, we became entangled in it's polygons,and were dragged to the other side of the world.

We both laughed hysterically & thought "hmm that was weird". So we tried it again on the boat departing to see if it would happen again.

Upon zoning back to kalimdor, we immediately fell to our deaths through the world, and landed.... in Hammerfell? What?? Our map apparently though that it was still in the barrens, yet the both of us appeared in a completely NPC-less Arathi highlands. we started driving around, and that's when all hell broke lose. That's when it started RAINING MOBS FROM THE SKY.

( this is what happens when you discover a world breaking glitch in WoW )

Trying to get that Alliance moonkin put together, still can't decide which purple to use. It doesn't help that every time I look up screenshots of you guys they're always taken in places with tinted lighting.

Brick and Mortar
A World of Warcraft Story by Gre7g Luterman

Episode 11: Juju

New episodes Monday through Friday!

I've been levelling my first Priest mostly by questing to this point (Level 52) but am now getting into a few instances with guild members. Up to this point he has been Shadow, but I'm wondering when is the best time to convert to Holy? Also, can anyone recommend the best build for a Priest that does a fair bit of solo as well as the instances?

Back in March, I decided to rep grind, which meant doing a lot of lowbie quests for faction rep. After getting exalted with the horde, I thought to myself, "I've done a fair amount of quests now, maybe I should try for Loremaster."

( Months later, and thousands of quests later... )

For those who did/are doing Loremaster, what part did you hate the most? Blade's Edge for me, since I didn't play in BC and needed to grind the ogre rep and Consortium rep to get the last few quests I needed. I didn't have much trouble with Kalimdor, like I thought I would, but probably only because I somehow had enough Brood rep to start the Scepter chain which opened a LOT of quests. =P

But yeah. As a guildie put it, I have now beaten the World of Warcraft. I need a new goal to undertake... either Insane, or 40 exalted reps, I think. Perhaps both at the same time? :P

Just wanted somewhere to squee, since nobody else ever gets these things. =P

I've been unable to play for the upwards of a week now. It's I upgraded to Battle.net two to three days before the deadline, and I am still getting either 'merge your account' or 'there is no WoW account associated with this account'. I'm really getting sick of it, but there doesn't seem to be anything I can do as when I phone Blizzard I get hung up on, or they say that I have 'connection problems'.

Not only that, but I am continuously getting 'patch has failed to apply' messages, as well. My game is continuously trying to apply the same patch, and has been for three days.

Frankly, it makes me unwilling to pay for another game card when not only is there problems with the brand new account layout that you guys have just implemented, but I can get absolutely NO SUPPORT for the problems caused.

I hope they fix this fast, and I HOPE THEY LEARN FROM THEIR MISTAKES NEXT TIME.

I'm generally a nice person on WoW.

Sometimes I'm not sure if gear is an upgrade, so I'll greed rather than need, in which my friends in group will yell at me for not taking it for main/offspec/whatever.

Scenario:

H Violet Hold run, with my boyfriend and friend, and 2 randoms. I'm playing my feral DPS druid and our healer happens to be a resto druid. After doing a few portals, he announces, "I'm rolling need on Staff of Trickery, resto is my offspec."

I reply, "I'm a feral/resto druid too, so good luck if it drops."

We finally finish the run, and Azure Cloth Bindings drop. I decide to roll need for my offspec, and I win.

Tree: "I like how DPS gets the caster gear..."
Me: "It's my offspec too, you would have rolled on the staff had it dropped."

Was I out of line? Do you guys have a lot of experiences where this happens, and people rage or pout that they didn't win the roll?

I've got some extra cash this month, so I figure what the hell, I wanna download WCIII from Blizzard's online store since I've wanted to play it for ages.

My only question is for those who have purchased it this way; I know this is an old game, and I run Windows Vista. Are there any problems with it I should look out for?

All done, you can delete, thank you!

TIA!

I've been playing disc for about two years now and last night was the first time I actually saw a log of our raid. I looked at it but I am not a number cruncher- is there anyone willing to take a look to see what's up? I play with about 3 to 5 fps (a BIG part of why I don't raid very often, if at all) and I'm not sure that it really maters but I feel like I should just throw that out there.

Türkish's log.

So my dear itsy bitsy hunter Imani is no longer itsy bitsy. She hit 78 last night, and also...



( *squee* )

Next up is hitting 80, and hitting revered with the Oracles so I can start buying eggs, and farming for the ZG raptor mount aaaand hunting down King Krush and tame him!

Single level 80 holy/prot paladin looking for semi-active, open minded fishing partner. Must love the Underbelly, have a skewed sense of humor, and not be afraid to fish in Alliance controlled Wintergrasp. :D

All inquries should be directed to the Horde Paladin Stefanis on the Feathermoon (RP) server. :]

Is anyone else having trouble logging into their account management?

Despite getting violently ill tonight (go figure I manage to get food poisoning) I still managed to have a great Saturday!

- Got not one, not two, not three but FOUR achievements on my baby mage :) this mage was rolled the day BC came out but me and clothies don't get on well so I decided to have a wack at her again.

- I also managed to get the 25 pet achievement on all 8 toons on Khadgar - woooot!

- Won the contest to appear on Sidhe Devils Gone Wild

- Hit 20 on the above mentioned mage almost 2 years to the day when she was created

So girls, how has your weekend shaped up on wow?

I'm hoping someone can help me.

Some fantastic person posted a pic of a onesie that said something like: Baby, level 5. Binds when picked up. I thought it was absolutely hilarious, and I wanted to get one for my baby to be, except like an idiot I never saved the link. Does anyone remember seeing anything like this? I can't remember if it was an actual post or just a comment in another post, but I want to get it so badly- I'd hugely appreciate your help!

Thanks so much!!! :)



Also- does anyone have an idea when patch 3.3 should be out? I really like the sound of the cross server random dungeon pug thing.

I just saw this video here and was wondering if anyone of you knows how the human form is chosen? Do we actually get to create that too, or is it preset from our choices when creating the worgen look?

I know it's early, but I'm really curious about it, so if any of you have had the opportunity to play the worgen stuff Blizz has made public... do you know?

**Have to take off, I'll try again tomorrow- thank you guys!

This is probably a silly question, but I cant find an answer to it anywhere. I want to do a race change on my warlock but I wonder, when the change goes through, will my demons still retain their current names? I know its a silly question, but I have two locks at the same level and want to consolidate, so the original lock is getting prettied up and basically becoming the other lock since I like her "mileage" and demon names better.

Also, because I was waiting for the race change and debabting on getting it once they were available, I havent touched my lock in like half a year so Im way out of the loop. Does anyone know of a good warlock guide that they could point me to? Similar to amiyuy's BM Hunter guide. Just all that basic information that has changed since I last played. It would be far easier than looking at a billion blogs and finding conflicting information.

Thanks ladies!

I know there was at least one other wow_ladies member there, not sure if she took sceenshots or not, but, here are quite a few of mine...

( Not at all dial-up friendly... )

I'm not ashamed to admit that, I got all teary eyed a couple time while we were all running as a large group, Alliance and Horde, because the turn out was better than I thought it would be and I wasn't even the one organizing it! lol . I have an aunt who is currently battling breast cancer and I lost a cousin 2 years ago this passed October to this horrible disease. She was only 35 and had 2 children under the age of 5.

Anyway, enjoy!!!

I am having a bit of trouble here, and I am not sure how to handle it. The guild I am currently in has stalled to the point of no one ever being on, minus the exception of myself and one other person... If I wasn't a council member of said guild, I would have left it by now, but I think I have too many responsibilities to the guild to up and leave.. Like the lowbies, when they do come on and ask for help, if I up and leave them, who is going to help them.. But I also need to think of myself as well, I would like raid one day and I will never get to do that as long as I am in that guild.

What makes the situation worse is the guild leader and some members have left to play the other side, so no one is ever on for me to talk to about the guild, and I have no clue if and when they are coming back.

I got invited to a nice guild last night, with over 100 members and I couldn't take up the offer because I am in a current guild. So ladies I am asking for advice on how to leave a guild when your a council member, but the current guild leader is never on..

*sighs*

Any advice would be appreciative thanks!

Sometimes I like to beat the crap out of things. Really. I mean I like to get in there with my big weapon and just whomp the crap outta stuff. I have a 25 pally, oops 26, and she carries this really really big mace and it swings really slow, so I'm totally not getting any satisfaction out of a kill unless it's 5 levels lower than me and it takes one swing to pop em. Should I reconsider, while soloing, another weapon that is more pace appeasing?

I also have a shammy I want to dust off, she's lvl 28 and she's um, melee dps, what is that enhancement? God, it's been a while since I've had her out, but I like the damage she does which her weapons and totems so thought about dusting her off as well. I think she uses, um a mace too, but I think it's much smaller than the one my pally has. No question about her per se, but I guess the above would apply.

I've always wanted to do this, ever since I started playing, but I was always in some other guild. Now I'm not, so I'm going to do it now. Please enable me!

( All done now! )

While you can master loot or free-for-all loot gear and drops, is it possible to have one person loot all the gold while in a group?

I'm currently working on getting the "loot 25,000 gold" achievement and justdbear and I have a few plans on killing some things that drop a lot of gold (world bosses, raids, etc). We have looting on free-for-all and I pick up everything to vendor/AH, but the gold is always split between us. She has no problems with me looting all the gold (since I have no problems giving her any gold she needs since we do this all the time) but obviously it's going to take twice as long if we're splitting gold down the middle!

So far, the only solution we have is dropping group and letting me loot right after a boss kill, then reinviting back. This will work for bosses, but can be a pain, and doesn't do any good when doing an instance run. We tried going through the looting options, but free-for-all doesn't work, and nothing else seems to jump out.

Suggestions on how to maximize this so I can hit that achievement sooner rather than later?
