Quickie update while waiting for BG to open... (WoW, gaming/RL, RP)

[thistlechaser]

RP: I take back all I said about RP on Moon Guard and apply it to just Alliance RP on Moon Guard. :P Yesterday I made a belf character there, and got two scenes that same day and one today! I worry a little about how low my standards are sinking, as I enjoyed the first scene even though it was with an utter godmodder. He posed attacking me off the bat, posed a success each time, posed kicking me in the chest and making me cough up blood, posed me nearly bleeding to death... yet somehow I enjoyed it. I think (hope!) it might have been because I had been so long without RP... Scene after him was much much better (above average WoW RP), and the scene today was outstanding, at least as good as better-than-average MU* RP.

WoW: Thank god Keen is 80, as Horde has forgotten how to play every single PvP BG. We used to be able to win a couple of them, but now? We win NOTHING. AV was yesterday's daily. I went 0/25 before finally getting a win. Strand was today's, I went 0/7 before a win. Every single BG is like this. It's insane. We even lose WG, when we did nothing but win for weeks. Thankfully I don't need to or want to PvP much anymore, I just let myself be driven insane by do the daily.

I'm sitting on the whole druid character right now, since I'm getting my RP on MG.

Gaming: After thinking about it for a year or so, I finally bought a Wii. As usual, I bought it off Amazon (I swear, I forget RL stores exist, I get everything on Amazon now even if I want it right away). My main purpose for getting it is Wii Fit. I've gotten soooooo bad about exercising, maybe that will help. I figure the other sports games will help at least a little, too -- even just standing up and swinging my arms around will be more exercise than sitting at the computer!

Okay, what the heck? I saw two more spoilers about the same thing today -- Catelyn not really being dead, that she needs to re-die, not be un-dead. WTF? How can she not be dead? Didn't they slit her throat? Did she come back as one of those Others? Don't answer me, just... gah. Why can't a good character come back? Blah.

Wii Sports, boxing, sure it won't really tell you all that info like Wii Fit will, but I swear it's the best workout of any of them.

Oh, yay! And long time back I used to do tae bo for exercise, which was muchly punching and stuff! :D :D

If you're having problems with your druid, try respeccing to Balance. I have a Feral and a Balance druid and I die waaaay less on my boomkin. Both have dual spec and I switch to resto for instances, which means a lot of invites and extra good gear to level with.

I'm loving both of my druids.

Oh! Thanks, but that wasn't the issue at all. It was if I should pay to move my almost-39 druid to the server I currently play on, or if I should just start over. Right now I'm doing neither, since my time is taken up elsewhere. :D

Oh, you don't want to go Balance until at least 43. I thought you were 60+

For what it's worth, I've spent more time in Elwynn Forest now...and gah, it burns, it burns! I guess I've just been around for holiday stuff previously where there are so many people there, the normal stupid is suppressed. The rest of the Alliance areas aren't like that, just Goldshire, but oh my goodness, it is terrible like you said. It's nice that there's a concentrated place of stupid so it's not everywhere all the time, but when you have to go to the place of stupid...so, so bad. I'm glad you've seen that Goldshire is not representative of the server, though. :)

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Oooh, that's good to know! If it's just that one area, it's easily avoided. :D

Yep! I really hadn't encountered it before last week. Once I saw the typical Goldshire, I understood your aversion better. Sure would have turned me off, too!
