I thought of starting an undead character on the Thunderhorn server. My main is a lvl 24 night elf on Medivh. Are you still looking for guild members? ---

> [@available light](#): > > So what colors did we end up with? I won’t be able to afford a tabard for a while, and it looks awful on my char anyway. Totally distorted in front, and completely blocked by my hair in back. The yellow is a bit darker then the one you guys wanted. I have to agree it would have looked better. I honestly didn’t see it when I was buying. I would have picked a darker red but the icon was an accident. I have started a new rogue who’s lvl 9 so if you’re on when I am we can probably do some things together. (ps engineering is fun I love throwing Dynamite at guys. I wish I could send it to other dopers.) > [@rexnervous](#): > > Let me know how much money I owe you, if it’s as much as 1g, may take a little while Well I donated 6 gold in the end and Gorm ended up donating 4 gold. You can donate to either of us if you feel like it but you don’t ‘owe’ either of us. We gave freely. **DeadlyAccurate** We’ll always welcome new members from the SDMB. ---

There’s a schematic for EZ throw dynamite, which can be used by non-engineers. My rogue got it from the auction house. ---

I made an undead rogue named “Mulva”, she’s level 6 now. So don’t be surprised if I contact any of you and ask for free stuff 😛 Yes, I’m a male playing a female character. Though undead are hardly attractive so I don’t think there’s any danger. About the name, I couldn’t resist, the random name generator gave me “Malva” and then it made me think of Seinfeld so I changed it. ---

Yikes, I just started a rogue (orc) as an alt two days ago. At that point there were (I think) no rogues in the guild. Now we have, what, 4 of them? Mine’s level 6 also. Maybe all us young rogues could gather together for some quests and grouping this weekend? ---

You new folk can be meat shields for Malevond - er, I mean, he can provide you all some fire (and frost) support. Plus he can make you some eeeevil bags to hold all your eeeevil stuff. I’m getting a good supply of wool, so I think I can make that the standard issue bag. ---

I have apparently lost the ability to pick servers in anything but the eastern time zone. When I go to “change realm” I get a list of servers, but no tabs along the bottom to pick time zones, and bloodhoof is unavailable. Any idea what’s up with that? ---

When I go to “change realm” I get a list of servers, but no tabs along the bottom to pick time zones, and bloodhoof is unavailable. Any idea what’s up with that? They removed the time zone tags. I’d guess because certain time zones had such a huge overload. You should still be able to find your server though. Unless it was one of the first to go down for maintenance this morning. ---

Somehow my mind took “thunderhorn” and turned it into “bloodhoof”, and that’s what I was looking for. Huh. Maybe I saw them together before or something. ---

There are some bugs with the chat system, sometimes pretty bad bugs. The other day available light and I ran into Oakroot (don’t know his Dope name) and figured out that he wasn’t ignoring the guild members like we thought, he was actually unable to receive text from the guild channel, from whispers, or even from local chat (the /say command). Fortunately he could read the sdmb channel we have set up, so after we managed to figure out what was going on we suggested he submit a GM request. So if any of you other Dopers can’t get a hold of anyone in the guild, that’s probably why. ---

I have 3 characters - not looking to join any guilds, but if some Dopers need help or items in the game, feel free to message me. Aggramar (not played often) - **Alannah** level 14 gnome mage Cenarius (most played) - **Pigeon** level 38 troll hunter Darkspear (occasionally played but looking to play more since it’s PVP) - **Gwendolynne** level 8 undead mage ---

Ah, I notice thunderhorn is a normal server. I’d love to join an SDMB guild, but I already have a character on a normal server and don’t want another one. PVP servers look more interesting. ---

Whoops, **Gwendolynne** is a priest, not a mage. I’m trying to do the Christmas quests now with my highest level character - here’s hoping for a Christmas themed reward! ---

Well, this is a shame. I’ll be offline for next 5 days for Xmas visiting (or should I say Great-Father Winter). What’s a shame is, I have a 5:30 am flight, meaning I have to get up at 3:30 am. Figured I’d go ahead and stay up and play until then, sleep on the plane. Yahoo! Many uninterrupted hours of playing. Oh. What? The servers are down? But only some of them? Including the one I play on? Great. Anyway, fellow Burning Dog Legion members, happy holidays, see you when I see you. ---

Any interest in starting in a PvP server with me? You could always play multiple characters if you want to try it out… I’d like to set up an SDMB guild on one of them. I’m probably going to do a warlock with enchanting/tailoring, for something pretty different from my rogue with skinning/leatherworking, but I haven’t decided yet. I’ll probably go horde, also to have something different.
