I finally got some time in and got to level 15! I went through RageFireChasm and donated all of the Greens I picked up, since I took a gold out for weapons training and level training.

Now I just need to rip through some Barren’s quests so that I can handle Wailing Caverns sometime this weeked.

I’d enjoy playing my mage with you, Algher, in Wailing Caverns. But I warn you, it’ll be my first instance as a mage. 😉

And Skammer, Oom’ll instance with you if you’ll have her!

I need to do WC on my hunter(again) so I can get the sweet xbow that drops from Serpentis and destroy people in Warsong Gulch. 🙂

And my warrior has failed to complete WC twice now. (Party falls apart…it’s not me… I swear!) So I’m in! I can even try to tank.

Anyone up for a lvl 40+ instance tonight? Uldaman or anything, I can heal or dps.

Just FYI Dreadrot is an Alt of mine I’ll only put donations under my main to avoid confusion. My alts (so far some I haven’t signed into the guild yet)  
Dreadrot 20 priest  
Searsong 20 mage  
Deepgrowl 20 Warrior  
Longstride 20 Hunter  
Abysswalker 20 Warlock  
I have every profession covered to at least 150 if anyone needs anything made and most patterns learned at that level or lower. Also if anyone needs one of those slots filled in a team and is on during my weird hours I’d be more then happy to come and lend a hand.

I just ran through WC with a random group and picked up gloves and armor of the fang (lost the roll for the footpads). I did get the cloak off of Scrum though!

I put all other greens I got into the bank - and it is now full of stuff for either auctioning or outfitting lower levels alts.

thanks to whoever it is that keeps on putting in the armor patches - they help keep me alive! I will try to reciprocate with potions, but there is obviously an alchemist way ahead of me in skill level.

Four of us went to Razorfen Kraul last night, on a spur of the moment. We picked up a warrior tank, and we easily blew through it. Even after the tank had to go after the bosses, we did the escort quest very well.

I was lucky and the drops went my way: a really nice two-handed axe and some leather leggings.

By the way, our bank tab keeps filling up: please take stuff out, if you can use it. The tab is there to help guildies, so help yourself. 🙂 And a big thank you to those who’ve been donating to it.

I have REALLY enjoyed playing with you guys; it’s the most fun I’ve had playing WoW, and I have been in it for several years.

However, since patch 2.4 I and some number of nVidia users experience frequent crashes/lockups. There are 50+ pages of posts on the WoW boards about this issue, and there is no fix (yes, everyone’s tried everything, and WoW is the only game that crashes).

So, I’m afraid I’ll have to take a long-term nap. Best wishes to the Legion.

I’m sorry to hear that, Squip. I hope you’ll keep checking your connection from time to time, in case either Blizzard or Nvidia come up with a fix.

Sorry to hear that Raza! I hope you come back when they’ve straightened the problem out.

I don’t have BC, and with a couple of my professions approaching 300 (skinning and fishing) I started to download the free trial last night. Well, that took several hours, so I never did get any playing done. I should be back on tonight.

Do we have anyone in our guild who can port or otherwise help me get to Shatt? I understand I can’t go myself until I am level 58 or something, right? My skinning and fishing levels are both maxed (or nearly) at 300 and I want to train to the next level. Not sure my options for getting there at my current level (45).

I can (Athina), and last I heard Aruvqan was also bound in Shat. There’s a few others as well. Just ask in /gu and if there’s a lock and two others, we can do it.

Yup, I am bound there - I will be in and out of the game this weekend - nausea issues with my meds so I am up and down. [when I am having issues I like to be online in game and chatting to take my mind off it though not really up to doing much of anything more than fishing or soloing where the mad desire to run to the bathroom to hurk wont interfere with anybody elses game=)]

Okay, Rottingbird offered last night as well. It looks like the hard part is getting the lock.

I have the same need as Skammer/Kene. I’ll be on a lot this weekend, so please keep an eye out for Oombipbipyah when you’re porting to Shat. Also, Omencaller offered to help with the port too.

My skinning and first aid are 300, today I’m trying to get my fishing to 300.

Hey Y’all, for a number of reasons I’ve decided to let my subscription lapse (time commitment, boredom, crashes, etc.). Rather than be all mysterious about it, I thought I would tell you. Anyway, thanks for all the good times! What a cool bunch of people you are. Rock on!
