I've started my World of Warcraft account. I chose Feathermoon because that is where I recall Arcane saying he playing at.
I have 2 characters:
Dwarf Warrior: Buldigar, Level 6 Tauren Hunter: Ockhoofhamr, Level 3
Not sure yet on the dedication I have to either one of these guys. Kind of liked the little spell casting gnomes that were running all over the place in the snow, especially because I think engineering would be a cool skill to develop. I also like hunter a lot, but like the troll combo with hunter. Just getting started, the feel of the graphic engine is a lot like playing Lineage II, but much brighter and more colorful with a lot better motion smoothness.

Umm, too late. Thanks for the offer, though, I'm tempted to pick up BF as the price drops.
Buldigar is now level 8.

Very cool, Aged. I started a new dwarf hunter (and a bunch of others I've not played yet) last night and leveled him up to 8 in an evening. My new hunters name is...I can't remember. ack. I'll update this later.

 Knowledge is power... has been since time eternal. Arcane knowledge is thereby ultimate power and can therefore lead to ultimate corruption. Wisdom (and the experience that comes with age) is a serum for corruption. Perhaps that is why there are so many Old Men with Arcane knowledge and so few young ones... Arcane OMO - Circa 2001

Oh... BTW - If you are roleplaying and you are flirting with more than one female... take my advice:
1. Just say no...
2. Ok.. so if you can't resist then don't "KISS"
3. If you are not strong enough to observe the first two tips... then DON'T GET CAUGHT!!!
Just thought I would share some of that "wisdom" I'm supposed to have

I don't kiss no MMO babes as they are more likely to be scruffy than smooth faced on the other end if'n you know what I mean (I know Petri knows what I'm a meanin' but Pacey may not as he was a ogglin' Flamella on occasion).
btw: I am impressed that Blizzard resisted the desire to make over-endowed female characters in the game. Something NC Soft was NOT able to resist with Lineage II and CoH.
I'll be on tonight and try again to message you guys.

Yeah, it's funny to see the number of threads in the official CoH forums that relate directly to that topic: "can we please have a slidder to REDUCE breast size?"

Ya, sure you are Arcane. <hee hee>
The name of my Dwarf Hunter is Stonegut. He wields a pretty mean blunderbus (the one that is a early quest reward) thingy and can get off about 6 shots before having to switch to his trusty Tomahawk. I think he will be my main as I like the need to plan your attack with a hunter that a Warrior does not need AND the pets are gonna be cool, too.
So, a complete list is:
Ockhoofhamr, lvl 3 Tauren Hunter Buldigar, lvl 8 Dwarf Warrior Destaro, lvl 2 Gnome Warlock Splat, lvl 1 Orc Hunter Stonegut, lvl 8 Dwarf Hunter and... Gak, lvl 1 Undead Warlock
The customization of characters is rather limited (not as limited as Lineage II but far more limited than CoH and SWGalaxies), but the colorfulness and great graphics makes it fun to build characters.
I can't wait to tame my first pet. I'm thinking a Snow Leopard to start with. Or an Elder Crag Boar. I'm sure I'm over reaching or thinking I can tame thinks I can't, but hey, I can fantasize about it for another couple levels.

Not a problem.
Coming back to the game topic at least (although not names per se), I played with Latronis (Aged) tonight and had a blast. So much better playing with buds. Aged was also very kind and showed me around IronForge which I'm certain saved me a couple hours gameplay. If you ever get a chance in the game or just watching over someone's shoulder, take a griffin ride and you'll see what a killer job Blizzard did with the WoW world. Awesome.
Arcane, we gotta get us all on together. Have you got a lowlie level 9-10 guy tucked away?

Sorry BP I only have Arcaene that I play. With all the activity I do for the guild (and others) I don't have time for two characters... I'm already loosing too much sleep over this damn game!!!!
Playing 2 characters... I would have to quit my job... *ponders that for a moment*

BUT!!! That doesn't mean that we can't run together. Hell, Prae and I have on a number of occassions (although not as much as I would like). Mostly I don't gain any xp... but it is the RP I like anyway. I would likely be lvl 45 or better otherwise.

Ok, great. I'll be leveling up Stonegut pretty quickly, I expect. I made level 10 this morning and have my pet quest. I'll try to do the pet quest with Aged as he is about to make level 10 too and Latronis is a Hunter as well.
Aged invited me into the guild last night, so I guess you're my Glorious Leader. (Dwarf takin' orders from an Elf, what's the world comin' to)? The role play is fun, I'm still getting into the frame of mind and need to work on my Dwarf/Fantasy world speak, but I am trying to stay away from any modern or out of character speak (except for help questions, of course).
