in canada we call people from the US americans, fyi. no canadian would be caught dead calling themselves american. not that we hate the US, but we have a bit of friendly rivalry, even though our cultures are very similar, with a few key differences that are often not really obvious unless you've lived for a good amount of time in both countries.

once again your trolling answer is wrong.

lol wut? i live in canada, we DO NOT call ourselves americans. how is any of that post you quoted trolling? we might know americans or have family in america but we still make fun of americans. we call the US, the states or america here. we don't say, oh we're americans because we live in north america. that's silly as ****. we're canadians, not americans. canada is in north america, not america.

WoW is expensive in comparison to other games. It's inexpensive when I compare it to a round of drinks in the pub. ?30 for another expansion though is a lot of money imo when your already paying ?9 a month. One thing though with Blizzard is they really are good at keeping you busy.

Grind raids and random heroics to buy new tier gear. When you eventually get the complete set they go add another tier and raid to start grinding. Repeat this 5x then release a new expansion. Repeat. Sounds repetitive, but it keeps 10 million people happy?

Personally I don't have time for WoW since becoming a dad. I will get Cata one day but justifying ?9 for a few hours play a month I just cant do right now. Roll on GuildWars 2 IMO.

General request:

Does anyone have a US horde server i could move to? My server (Bloodhoof) has a crappy population, alliance abso-freaking-lutely dominated PvP, and the GM of the guild i'm in has hated me since day 1 (long story, series of unfortunate events). I would be willing to transfer my 80 priest if there was a guild available, but I'm mostly looking for population and pretty even sided PvP.

Quel'Dorei is decent ... has good economy and decent on PvP

I might make a character on there, is it a high population server? Also, what faction? I really wish heirlooms were transferable to other servers :(

Its medium/high pop. We are playing Alliance. Just message me in game.. My mages name is Smeltn

fixed. Stop saying WE, you dont speak for all of us. Nothing more annoying then someone that thinks they talk for the entire country and is wrong in the process.

ya im a wierdo you got it. Im done with you, every post i see you type in your either defensive about something you werent even part of or trolling.

Monthly service charges are not direct Content Patch charges.

Blizzard obviously makes money after paying all it's employees to develop new content. The revenue for that can't come from expansion pack sales alone therefore you are indeed paying for at least some of this new content from monthly service charges. Additionally, while we all as tech-oriented people should know, it does cost tons of money to host these services in their six data centers in the US alone but I don't think it costs them $15/month x 10 million. Some of that money has to go into development.

Gah, i can't stand Alliance. It's nothing against the people that play it, but i find the races so.. boring. The races/architecture of the horde feel so much more unique IMO.

Quel'Dorei is a option, but it seems the Neowin guild is all but dead.

We should remake a neowin guild. maybe get a vote on server (except nesingwary, the economy is screwed. People will charge a million gold for a first aid cloth lol).

I play Horde on QD

@Smeltn - I'll see ya shortly after Cata drops. Need a home for my Dwarf Mage.

As to the neowin guild. If anyone wants to take over on the QD server (it's a good one). I'll be more than happy to pass the reigns along to whoever, if a group wants to continue on as horde.

a couple more dungeon runs tonight. wow they seemed to make wotlk 5 mans so easy compared to tbc, or is it the DKs doing 25k dps? :laugh:

i would roll with smeltn knowing how cool his crew is but he's alliance and on a pve server. my 2 man crew needs world pvp like it's our life blood. and we pretty much hate every alli race. except pink haired female gnomes. they're cool :shiftyninja:

A lot of warrior nerfs in the 4.03a patch notes. I am a sad panda.

Oh well, I guess now is a good time to take my worgen druid reroll idea more seriously...

So am I. Though after Tuesday's dailies I'll have all my heirloom gear for my undead hunter!

fixed. Stop saying WE, you dont speak for all of us. Nothing more annoying then someone that thinks they talk for the entire country and is wrong in the process.

Why would I call myself an American when I am Canadian? If you do more power to your American brethren but I, myself and a lot of other people call ourselves Canadian as we are not American.

Anyways back OT ... I can't wait to log in today and try everything out. I tried exploring a few places on the PTR but it wasn't the same with premade characters ... I want to experience it with my REAL characters.

BTW the new Stormwind is amezzin.

Sadly, I couldnt bring myself to keep playing. I ended up deleting every lvl 80 I had, and gave my 45k odd gold to random people in dalaran. Its been a fun 5 years, but I cant take the grind anymore, or the general attitude of people within wow anymore. Plus, I have lost so much time to that game besides doing something which I have always loved to do: programming. I hope everyone has fun in the expansion
