Hello,

I really feel like telling everything about me and my own WOW addiction. =)

How it all started:

It all started when a friend of mine showed a game of Warcraft III. That game was the best I ever played, we laughed so much at the characters and there funny voices. I think the rifleman is my favorite character, especially with there Evil Dead Army of Darkness Easter egg. "This is my BOOMSTICK!" It was that game that made think Dwarves are cool (not only that but they looked like The Lost Vikings from the SNES)  **witch I didn’t thought Blizzard would buy out** I was really sad when I couldn’t find Warcraft III in stores anywhere, so I stopped Looking for it and just play some other games. But when I was watching a Gamers article on TV saying something about Warcraft i was al Nostalgic again. I became eager to search the internet for the game Warcraft III and noticed that it was made by Blizzard, when I visited the official Blizzard website. I saw something about a "World of Warcraft", so I just thought it would be the same style as Warcraft III....boy was I wrong, after a longer search I got really interested of all the stuff in the game that was thought up so "perfectly in my own mind". It had Knights, magic, Dwarves, adventure, action, RPG and he works! I was already thinking of buying the game, but there was 1 thing holding me back. The thing that was holding me back was the month payment that was needed for the game. Because I do not own a Credit card I could not play the game, lucky for me my class mates said that there was a backdoor for the people without a credit card, the (pre-paid cards) made me again feel happy for the videogame, so I waited, thinking of witch classes would be perfect for me.

Thoughts of character:

I saw myself as a mighty Dwarf Hunter, bound with a pet Bear named Beastfang, but I thought a hunter would be nothing for me because I really dislike using bows and guns. I was thinking of a mighty Dwarf Warrior like one of my Heroes in Lodoss war (Ghim). Around that time I found the intro movie of World of Warcraft. When I saw the Dwarf in the snow I was sold...but hunter still wasn’t my top choice, I saw a Night elf Druid witch looked pretty cool, but I still haven’t found any fun in being a Night elf. I predicted to my friends a Mass Night elf invasion on the alliance side, because I know very many people that are fan of Elves and stuff, so to me a Night elf was off the list. When I saw the Undead Warlock I was so amazed by the Infernal that he summoned, I really wanted to become a warlock just for the monsters at your command, a shame they didn’t had any Dwarf Warlocks, else I would have chosen that one for sure. It was almost time for the release date of World of Warcraft, as happy as I was I began talking with my friends if they would buy it, one of my friends really liked the concept of the game but didn’t agree with the month payment, and the other said he tried the Beta with his other friends. He told me he was going to the Alliance side and starts a Guild. When the game got released I was able to get my very own copy of world of warcraft! But the Game-cards where not yet released until one month has passed, I felt really Sad, while hearing my friends are already playing the game and I was stuck with an instruction book. they told me to enter a fake Credit card number and take the free month just to play, but I kind of refused that and wanted to play "Game card only" Stubborn as I was I waited, and my reward became the greatest gift ever!

I signed up, logged in and started to create a character. Clicked on Dwarf and began thinking, wanted to become a warrior or hunter, I heard that my friend was a Dwarf Warrior already. (wouldn’t be much fun if I did the same) So I was thinking of becoming a healer, healers are much needed in game, but it just isn’t my style to just stand around and heal while others have al the fun. So I was viewing al classes again and found that the Paladin was very much alike my desires, they can heal and do melee damage, very nice! So I created my first character and got sucked into the world of warcraft.

It took me pretty long to lvl al the way to 60, about 0.5 year. By the time I was lvl 48 I borrowed my Game to one of my friends, he still didn’t like the payment concept, but i was heading out for holidays and my Game was still on for 3 more weeks. I decided to lend him my WOW account so he could create a character, check the game and waste my last gaming hours to the fullest. After the Holidays he even bought his own World of Warcraft account including the Game cards.

Game on:

During the lvl 60 period, lots of people on the server had a lot of epic items, they All acted like they are professionals in game, though I admit i haven’t seen any raids at that time, most people didn’t needed Paladin's, because the server alone had to many of them walking around. Some guilds even had rules like "you need epic items to be able to join our raids". After that long period I had someone from my job at my place, talked something about World of Warcraft and he really disliked the game. He said it was ugly, bad, boring and had no blood in it. I got mad and told him to sit behind my desk log in to World of Warcraft, create a new character and join the online sensation. After 12 minutes of playing, he couldn’t let go of my Keyboard, because he wanted to see the newer skills for his lvl 8 Night elf Druid. He told me he was going to buy the Game as well, and I suggested that we should do that in a group, that way can play Warcraft together and have a good time. I also suggested going to the Horde side so I can become an Orc Warrior or Undead Warlock, also the racial skills are very nice. But no he wanted to be a member of the Alliance to become a Night elf druid. Finally he won, I told him we should play the Game on a shiny new server so that almost all characters in game are not at the highest level yet, this way you can always find I nice place and meet other nice people.

After he got the game, he didn’t become a Night elf druid, but a human mage, so I kind of thought of becoming a human as well (although a Gnome was better for mana). I choose the Class Warlock and from that day Gizmondi and Sacrum are Born.

EXP:

We only worked together until lvl 20, then Gizmondi entered addiction mode and became 60 in no time while I was stuck on lvl 35. I was beginning to hear bad rumours of Gizmondi and in the real World I kept hearing him complain about other people, how they act like kids and that they all think there god and stuff. Gizmondi Joined the Seal of Nozdormu, a PVE Guild with goals to raid MC, BWL, and so on. Gizmondi kept bragging about his shiny new epic items and raids and tempted me to join that Guild. Unfortunately the Guild invite rule said that I had to be lvl 60 and have a full Blue item gear on (or epics). So it took a while for me to join Seal of Nozdormu. When I was lvl 48 I was going for a new holiday trip, I left my older Guild Blackened because hardly anyone was online anymore (disband without knowing), so I joined The High Warlords Guild thanks to Darmelius (a warrior from that Guild). The Guild looked really promising and I was looking forward after my trip. During my trip I had a call from Gizmondi saying he joined High warlords because Seal of Nozdormu ended in a Disband. Also I heard from him he became my Guild leader and made a lot of new rules for High Warlords. After my Holidays there came a Guild meeting from the True Guild leader, but that meeting turned out in a new Guild disband, every Guild member turned against the leader for thinking he was god and stuff. So then the Guild split up in different Guilds.

-Final Destination, (Gizmondi) -The Ancient Protectors, (Darmelius)

I joined Final destination for a small period and tried a new guild, because I really wanted to do 40 people raids. I signed to up the first PVE guild The Royal Confederacy and didn’t make the trial, the second was a starter Guild from scrap, this Guild "The Dragonslayers" turned out in a Disband. I then made an Apply for the Guild Redrum Inc. a Guild who became the number 1 raid guild on the whole RavenHoldt Server for the Alliance. RR rules are very hard to become accepted, you need a nice gear, nice FR, and so on. I then got news from the former Guild leader of The Dragonslayers that he was going to rebuild his guild and become better then ever. When I joined his "New Order" I got news from RR that I was approved for a trial, I was very happy on that but it doesn’t feel right to leave a guild when you recently joined another. But i kept contact with several people from Redrum inc. I eventually heard from Gizmondi again (rerolled as a priest Gizmondo) that he joined New order as well, but he left right after I told him of my hearing that The Ancient Protectors are going very nice on there PVE. After he Joined TAP, he kept Bragging about his items, people, raids etc. So I eventually left New Order for TAP, that way I could still Raid together with my friend and have a good time. Just a few minutes later I got a Whisper of the Class leader Warlock from Redrum inc. saying that there was a new spot for Warlocks, I told him about my recent join for TAP and the Class leader took the news pretty good. I kept contact with him if I ever changed my mind.

Tap:

TAP succeeded me in finally killing my first 40 people raid "final" boss) *onyxia* So I was very happy. Around that time the Burning Crusade knocked onto everyone's Door. The TAP was planning to switch to a new Guild named "Blackout". All members left and switched Guild, I also left TAP, but waited to join Blackout, I still wanted to join Redrum Inc but wasn’t sure if it is the right choice. Many people dislike the Redrum Guild of stories *That I do not wish to tell*. So basically any person joining there guild would make that person just as bad. (They even made an RP pirate talk at some times witch i personally like very much)

I made up my mind and eventually joined RR. At this part the burning crusade went in stores and lots people started level like crazy, I really hope my new Guild can make it to the newest bosses and dungeons; so far RR hasn’t let me down for every inv I got from them. Maybe most people dislike RR members, but I consider them pretty normal like rest of people playing World of Warcraft. So far my Warlock is at lvl 62.5 and I am trying to find the fastest way to become a lvl 70 Warlock, that way I can be sure to pass the trial and not be "feeded to the sharks".
