1. Used to
But as I have ADD I tend to get bored with specific games after a while and have to walk away. I probably will be starting up again as I have a friend who is further away than I would like and it may be the best way for me to keep in touch on a regular basis.

I used to be the VP of a horde guild. Had a level 57 troll shammie(gadgeteer) and a bunch of other supporting characters.

2. Awsome!

Will you be purchasing the The Burning Crusade expansion when it comes out? I'll get it probably super late at night. >_< Can't wait to roll my BE hunter!

7. Horde scum!
j/k I have two lvl 60's a NE druid and a gnome warlock on Lothar. I also have various lower level characters (a mage, a priest). My highest horde is a 21 tauren druid I believe, I also have a troll shammy that may be close to 20...it's been awhile.

I'm taking a bit of a break at the moment though.

10. I play DDO.
Dungeons and Dragons Online is far superior to WoW. I play permadeath on the Thelanis server with The Sublime.

14. Ooh tell me more
Old DnDer from way back. But MMORPG are quite an investment of time et al. So how is the game play and everything on DnDOL?

29. It rocks. I'm not gaming for this next month, but here is some stuff on it.
There is little debate that it has the best graphics of any MMO out there.

This may whet your appetite (sorry about the music they added):

19. Did you see the South Park episode? Hilarious!
I don't play and will never even attempt to try. I would become hopelessly addicted to it.

20. my daughter does, she has a lot of down time at the Tattoo Shop
and she and the boss play all day while waiting for customers.

I have never played it, I prefer turn based stuff like Heroes of Might and Magic.

You have excellent taste. Is HoMM V as good as III was?

26. lol!! Yes, it is!

And to top it off my guild name is Wicked Witch of the West, so I kinda look like an NPC. It's funny when people get it as I ride by them!

23. You know we started a DU horde guild on Fenris
Well we're trying. According to the Gaming Forum here at DU there were plenty of DU WoW (it's my stress reliever, I tend to build up alot of stress).

So if anyone wants to join us on the Fenris server, whisper Herradura (that's my level 31 Tauren Shaman) just whisper Herradura

32. Only two Level 60s - you are an amateur. Hardcore gamers max out
with all their player slots as soon as the power levelling fiends can, until then you are a wannabe.

I think Southpark hit the nail on the head with their episode about WoW.

34. Night Elf Druid checking in
I have some lowbie alts, but I've resisted trying to level more than one character to 60. It took over my life for a little while, but I backed away. There are people in my guild who start a new toon every month or two and level it to 60 in no time at all. These people will be on till 2 in the morning, then log back on as soon as they get home from work. I'm considered the slacker of the bunch. I'm just not interested in doing the same things over and over. Neither will I farm gold or grind reputation.

I think I'm going to re-roll on a pvp server though. I just can't get enough world pvp, and BGs suck.

36. Pfffffft
Guild Wars here, no slumming on the Blizzard servers for me. When I quit DII after 5 years, I realized that I didn't like cartoons as part of my pixelated fantasy world.
