So I'm here at my new job as Field Support (read: help desk) for a company in Blue Ash....

It's a pretty neat job, I still have to learn the ins and outs of it and that will take some time...

But ALL I hear ALL day long are these 4 guys talking about W.O.W. :mad:

Known to many as World of Warcraft....

This shit is driving me nuts!!! It's like they are speaking a whole other language!!!

All damn day long... all day. With very little pause inbetween. I'm gonna go bonkers and I've only been here 2 weeks!

I have to keep some metal playing in my cube to keep my sanity!

It is driving me fucking crazy. The only time they don't talk about it is when they are busy taking calls. But not everyone is on a call at the same time, so they are pretty much talking about it all the time.

Just wear your "W.O.W. is for Pussies" T-shirt to work, that should solve the problem.

I have never understood the fascination with those type games.. I remember kids when I was in school always talking about Dungeons and Dragons, The old school version ( read: before the internet LOL) Didn't understand the fascination then, And don't get it now... But different strokes for different folks !!! I personally take long ones :lol:

Dude that's nothing...check out this uber nerd...:

A lot have asked me, why create so many? The main reason is to invade Stormwind and Ironforge when they reach top level. I'm sure the Alliance will put up a big fight when that happens. We'll see how it goes. If they don't make level 70 before Wrath of the Lich King, then it will be at level 80. That is my main goal. That will probably happen after I've got some PvP gear from the battlegrounds. I'm also planning to do some 25 and 10 man raid instances but that is secondary to my PvP goal. Of course I'll be doing arenas too to build up PvP gear but I'm not expecting to do that great there because I'm way behind in gear right now. I need to get to level 70 first, then level 80 and by then I will probably have all green gear while most others have been doing the battlegrounds and arenas.

It costs me exactly $5711 in subscription costs per year with 36 accounts on the 6 month pay schedule. Not bad considering I'm looking at it like it's a hobby and there are more expensive hobbies out there than World of Warcraft.

32 of my shaman are level 61. One shaman that I had before I started the 32 is at level 70 along with 8 other level 70 classes that I had. My mage, priest and druid are in the center of the circle of shaman in the pictures but they are kind of hard to see. I've also got some mages and priests that I'm currently working on that are level 23. Once they are at level 31.9, I will stop working on them, get 16 of them to level 60 with the recruit-a-friend bonus levels and work on the shaman again.

When Wrath of the Lich King is released, I plan to be at the store when it opens and will purchase 36 copies of it. With tax, it should be about $1500 for all of them. Then the shaman are on their way to level 80 along with the priest, druid and mage.

By the way, I have 9 level 80 shaman created on the Murmur PvP realm in the Wrath of the Lich King beta. I mainly tried it out to see how well my computers would work as they are. With the exception of one my desktop computers, I should be fine with the hardware that I have.

I use 3 addons in the game. CT_MapMod is used to give me locations for quests, etc. ClassIcons is another addon that I use to show the class of the target. It helps for PvP encounters. Then the last addon I use is SSPVP2 which is excellent for displaying timers and other things while in the battlegrounds.

For my keys to send to all instances of WoW on my 11 computers, I use Octopus 1.3.2. Maximizer in Octopus allows me to start up all WoW instances at the same time or any individual instance such as if a WoW instance has crashed. It also allows me to shutdown all of the computers at the same time.

I can respect the comment he made saying it's his hobby...i guess to a guy like him it may be stupid to spend the same money on a stroker engine that one of us would build. I guess it's all in how you like to spend your free time. Hell, i'm actually impressed that he can focus on that many characters at once.

If I had unlimited funds, my Wife would have a set up like that!!! I don't like the game either. My wife on the other hand is an addict!! If we loose the kids to the grandparents for a weekend, she will pull an all nighter on WOW. I usually go shooting, drag racing, go hang with friends, something to get out of the house.
Oh and Jesse, the farm party. Just keep thinking Farm Party!!!!!!

Maybe you should make an "official" email from W.O.W. stating they will be discontinuing the game and support due to an inherent bug that has been wiping out significant networks.

That South Park episode was hilarious.

I play a lot of games, and i'm guilty of spending long hours playing a few of them when i have nothing better to do, but not to the extent that those WoW people do. I also will NOT pay a monthly fee to play a game that i had to spend $50 on in the first place. If they're gonna make it an online pay-to-play game, then the software should be a free download or you should get the first 6 months play free or something to cover the price of the game.

I enjoy a little gaming my self and sometimes wonder if i've gone overboard with certain purchases. After seeing this post i'll never think twice next time I want to spend $100 on a game peripheral.

Anyone play Gears of War 2 yet :bigthumb

11-12-2008, 12:45 PM

Man i've got so many games on my list right now, i don't think i'll ever have time to catch up and play them all. Top of the list is probably Fallout 3, then probably GTA4 (i play everything on PC so i'm waiting for it to drop this month).

I don't own a PS3 or Xbox 360, but if they ever finally release the full version of Gran Turismo 5, i'll probably have to shell out the cash for a PS3 just to play it, and then you guys won't be hearing from me very much...that's one game series that i'm highly addicted to.

Ok, I don't like the gameplay of WOW, prefer the easy styke of D2 but it is also FREE to play online. Thats to the WOW players for keeping my games free with their monthly fees.

I'll never pay to play.

I just stood in line to get the WoW game's latest. I now know what it would be like if a gamer stood in line for the latest Mustang part that was being released at midnight. Everyone in line was talking WoW speak. The only reason I understood any of it is because I hear my wife talking about it. All the time. Did i mention she talks about it all the time? On the phone to everybody. I even heard the phrase, "last to 80 is a rotten egg!" OMFG!!! These people need a good shot, a beer, and a hooker.

Jesse good to see you found work. To bad about the W.O.W geeks. I dont think there are many car guys left around any more. Haven't found one at Sara Lee until you showed up and I have been here over 2 years.

I wish they'd find something for me to do over there, I'd love to come back and get the hell outta here! :lol:
