I downloaded the client and got to level 17 as a human sorceror. As fun as the game was, I deleted it after the trial finished since I didn't really think it was worth the monthly fee. I'll be sticking to Guild Wars then, I still have a fair bit to do in that game. Thanks to all that posted here.

I've got a lvl 70 Tauren Druid as my main character, on a server called Sporeggar (EU servers).

I've also been a Dwarven druid, a Gnome druid and a Human druid. :D
Blackrock Depths (dwarf potion - dire ale)
Winterveil (gnome teleporter - event)
Caverns of Time (turns you into a human automatically)

Why would you play a game that is repetitive and require little skill to play? A game is constantly modified to serve an addiction and to make money for "Drug Dealers" whom no longer need make interesting games and instead make expansion that continue to bring back all previous users, who may finally got a life. Don't play it, period. If you wanna waste time, at least play a decent game that truly involves you in a story rather than string you along with illusion of a wonderous heroic adventure. Do that and I'm sure you'll more out than spending hours into the night playing this silly game.

However I'm not just calling it an addiction because everyone else does. No, no, I have actually played it, and getting bloody sick of it. I tell you this from the heart, nothing ever good or interesting came from internet gaming. Yeah, sure some people found love in it but well I dunno, lets wait until the baby comes and while their wasting they're lives on it, the baby is wasting away into oblivion. Hope you don't play that game.

They couldn't. Horde can't speak Common, just like Alliance can't speak Orcish. Pity there's no neutral language that anyone can learn, really.

My wife and I have been playing since 2004. I have 4 70s, a troll rogue, undead shadow priest, tauren enhancement shaman - my current main, and a draenei enhancement shaman (he's been sitting at the AH on the Exodar for about 8 months - I started him to jam with a friend from work who for some reason stopped talking to me - besides, I felt dirty playing an alliance toon). My wife has 5 70s, an undead warrior, orc hunter, blood elf mage, tauren moonkin druid, and her best toon, a blood elf holy priest - she's by far the best healer I know. We also have several other solid alts that we play when we have the chance. I intend to raise a death knight as an unholy tank once the expansion comes out. Those are looking SICK!
I lead a small guild on my server with people I've known in game for a couple of years - 4 married couples and a few other friends and relatives. We all get along quite well and our raids are very relaxing and fun. We do weekly joint runs with another guild so we can enjoy the 25 man content without either of our guilds having to recruit - especially since we'll all be focused on leveling in a few months and learning the new content in smaller groups. It's good fun. Last night we one shotted Gruul and two shotted Magtheridon with them. Someone's cat had jumped on her keyboard and started the Mag event early. lol
The game is not for everyone, but my wife and I love to play it together, and both of our siblings play as well. It also saves us hundreds of dollars since we used to have a bad console game buying habit.
