I'll be playing on Cenarius it seems (friend picked).  Pacific PVE.  Say hi or something.

Rasix, Troll Shaman

Edit: I'll be on later, like 9pst .

Edit #2: Shadowsong server now. Cenarius sucked.

Hi.

Mal'Garis

MuhuBob - Tauren Shaman 4tehwin!
AngryBob - Undead Rogue
PrincessBob - Undead Priest
Foxglove - Undead Warlock
Krunkd - Ork Warrior
Bluebie - Undead Priest

Kel'Thuzad (PvP MST)

Horde side:

Cerrano - Orc Rogue
Phobia - UD Warlock
Bauer - Tauren Druid

Look me up if you're around.

Cenarius

Bedrock - Orc Shaman

Bedrock, eh?  Didn't I see people shouting at you for being a prat on general chat, Liquidator?

I was talking on general chat, don't recall people shouting at me though.

Well, if I had known it was you, I would have shouted at you.  Just for fun, though.

See sig.  (And here I thought I was destined for the Horde.)

Mal'Garis

Charn - Orc Rogue

Possible moving servers if Central keeps being the que bitch.

My guild is on Proudmore, I'll be signing up tonight when I get off work.

For the moment, Haemcow, the Tauren Warrior, is on Mal'Ganis. I may end up playing on Blackhand or an RP server if I can get a friend of mine to move there.

Figured I would level up a char that is needed in groups for once. Don't even ask me about shamans and DAOC.

Pathos
Human Priest
Argent Dawn

Doyle/Undead Rogue on Mal'Ganis...Possible move off of Central for me as well.

Mal'Ganis

Horde side.

Morvant Undead Warlock
Morv Undead Rogue

Moved to Shadowsong.  Cenarius was looking like a problem server.  1-6 in 50 minutes, woo woo.

Still, Rasix, Troll Shaman.  Sorry to anyone I inconvenienced with this.

Great now I have to start all over again... oh nevermind.

I don't see Shadowsong on the server forums, must have been added since yesterday then I guess?

BTW,  why did Cenarius suck and how is that server better? :)

It was getting queues due to crowding (like all the rest) and I guess they took it down a number of times, too, along with other servers.  They also had a problem where a number of servers disappeared from the in-game selection list, so you couldn't get back to your character, and I think Cenarius was one of them.

The new server names they added have not been listed on the forums, which may contribute to their uncrowded state, but personally I think it will take till Monday / after Thanksgiving for the playerbase to actually stop growing at a rate that Blizzard can't handle.  

Nothing will be set in stone until things cool down a bit and they decide where to move half of Archimonde anyway.  People madly racing to level on these PVP servers is alarming, too, from a "how much griefing will there be" perspective.

Due to being on "problem" servers in other games before, my friend and I just decided to make a preemptive strike.  Cenarius was having more problems than just about every pacific server there.

Shadowsong still has lag, but it least it's not home to Afterlife and it hasn't been down for 50% of the time.

I made a cow on Mal'Garis, then a couple of orcs. The server took about 45 minutes to get into for that pleasure last night. When it stopped responding, and the client timed out, it gave me the chance to queue again. So I went and created an orc on Cenarius. That server poofed, and I went back to Mal'Garis. However, I get insane lag there, disconnects, and queues. This afternoon, I've managed about 20 minutes of play in two hours of attempting to.

I'm getting bored of levels 1-5. I may just pick a random lightly loaded, recently added server and play there.

Hey, any of you want to set up a guild after the pops cool down a bit? PvP, Normal, I don't care. I was gonna join Morphiend, but I haven't been able to log into Mal'Ganis since last night.

So..We should do it. Everyone's playstyle here is pretty similar, so it'll probably work out.

Shadowsong seems pretty sparse and laid back so far.  Anyone's welcome to join me. I've got 2 friends I'm playing with, but I'm open to setting up a guild if anyone wants to.

I don't know where I am anymore.  I have characters scattered everywhere.  I won't wait in a queue and I couldn't deal with some of the packed n00b towns so I ended up making character after character...  the highest level so far is 8, on a server I can no longer log into.

So... I'll let you know my name and server if I ever find myself again.  And instead of a guild, I'll probably join up with the New Age Travellers, smoke copious amounts of pot and listen to horrid Grateful Dead music.

WTF.

Forget I said anything. Maybe one or more servers will be playable after the free month.

Pretty much doin' the same here, Signe..WTF is right.

A little off topic, but how do race wars work on the Normal servers? I can play both Horde and Alliance characters, right? But what limits are there? Will I ever be able to trade between characters, etc..stuff like that?

You pretty much have to enable PvP on yourself by doing one of several specific actions in order to participate.  Read here. (http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/basics/realmtypes.html;jsessionid=97A4E362420B1A7FB920FBE5A5802B35.app05)

If everyone will start playing on an RP server I promise to buy the game. How's that for a deal?

I'm not selling mine on Ebay if everyone plays an RP server.

Everybody playing on fifty servers is bad enough. They only have two RP servers, so if everyone plays there it'll certainly free up enough room for you to get some value from the game. :P

I now have a Haemcow on Blackhand, and on Bloodhoof, the Eastern RP server.

Fuck if I can get in though.

Bloodhoof isn't RP. :|

My wife said it was. I always listen to my wife. :)

Earthen Ring. You'll make Haemcow on Earthen Ring and like it! It's RP Eastern. The only one and brand new. So no population...yet.

They don't have an RP for Mountain (Yet? Last I saw?) so I'm on Cenarius. No problems yet for me, personally. It seems rather relaxed today.

Mal'Garis

Slayerik - Undead Priest

Got a good guild goes if anyone needs a good crew with a forum and Teamspeak.

Archimonde, Horde side.

Nijasan in game.

So now that Mal'Garis and Archimonde are in a coma and may not recover, where is everybody playing? The shuffling back and forth from East to West with the rest of the passengers is making me seasick.

I'm on a lot of servers as Irth (orc hunter) or Righ (varied).

I'm scattered about as well. Either as Doyle (Horde) or Gamin (Alliance)...among others. Highest characters are on Mal'Garis and Warsong, but I'll probably be moving to one of the low pop/Normal ruleset servers. Not sure which though.

Rimfiztrik, Bleeding Hollow
(BH is the unofficial PVP-RP server btw... and we have teh shadowclan!)

/lurk

With the death of Mar'Galis, I'm on Earthen Ring with Foxglove - Undead Warrior and Blacksmith. Woot.

-edited to add that Earthen Ring is the best server ever. And for a change I'm not lying or being sarcastic.

Twee, Troll rogue, Earthen Ring.  It's a good sever, I agree.  It has the added advantage of having extremely quiet chat channels.  I am very tempted, however, to go alliance so that I can eventually kick the shit out of all the fucking Rasta Trolls running around, pretending to smoke herbs and saying 'mon' after every sentence.  

Anyway, there I am for now.  Who knows what horrible fate awaits this server.  I can only be pessimistic.

Proudmoore with the rest of the Australian PvE people. Playing a female Orc warrior and lusting after one of the No-dachi I saw in a screen shot. Although a Katana would be nice as well. As impressed by the crafting as I thought I would be, this is the first MMORPG where almost everyone crafts. It plays way too fast for my comfort at low levels though. Group tactics are, of course, mostly optional.

If anyone cares, my guild has changed to Sargeras PVP server Horde, in central time zone.

Server was nice and flawless yesterday.  Still on Shadowsong.  

Heh, I think I knew that  WoW had too many servers for us not to become extremely fragmented.  They should have done away with the idea of timezones when organzising the servers.

In case anyone cares, Bleeding Hollow is the unofficial RP PVP server.

Finallly said fuck the PVP servers and made Haemcow on Earthen Ring and have been able to get his cow booty to 12.

Everyone here who wants to be in the official Bat Country Guild should reroll on Earthen Ring. Just figured I'd let you know. Haemish and I endorse but do not fully recognize any chapters that may appear anywhere else.

Besides, no one roleplays on the roleplaying server anyway. There's just never any lag or overpopulation issues.

Still Horde, then?

So are you are playing WoW?  Or... ?

Let me respond to that for schild...

IT'S A SCIENTIFIC EXPERIMENT!

...social experiment.

And yes. We're Horde on Earthen Ring.

I'm glad to see someone else is playing on Sargeras.  I am there with some RL friends, but on the Alliance side.  Well, at least I'll see you on the battlefield ...

If anyone else ended up on Sargeras, post or PM me.

A $90 social experiment*.


$25 strategy guide with no index not included in purchase price

I wish the strat guide had an index as well. It's a hell of a guide otherwise though, Haem.

Speaking of strat guides, does anyone know of the location of a good discussion (messageboard or articles) of various classes/talents and their applicability to PvP and/or PvE?  

I looked around in the usual places (Stratics, Warcry, official boards (shudder)) but I couldn't find much substantial.  A lot of peen waving and flaming but little actual content.

Hopefully The Lurker Lounge (http://www.lurkerlounge.com/) will have some stuff up at the intended time.  Fantastic strategy site for the Diablo series back in the day.

If you want to know what works in PvP and what doesn't, Nurfed (http://www.nurfed.com) will always have good advice, at least for the Horde side. They're a PK guild and all, but pretty cool guys, so you won't find much immaturity or bullshit there.

Sounds like I'm the only one that ended up on Illidan (Central PvP #2 at release), and one of the few playing Alliance (female NE Warrior).

My guild decided to avoid the hell-that-is-Archimonde and it seems like our decision was right.  Not that Illidan is perfect, but once you bypass the queue, gameplay is pretty darn smooth.

Nathrezim

Murdoc - Tauren Warrior
Lynch - Undead Rogue

Hmm..

Moved our little clan to Spinebreaker (PvP Pacific) and now have a group of seven of us.  We are going to start up a guild ( The Unabridged ) and I am playing a troll warrior named Webster.

yeah, I know... tried to get them to go with Bat Country...

So far the server has been flawless.

Anyone wanna join up, just shoot me a tell!

Lothar, Horde.
"Uggok"

Shatter Hand, Alliance, Huron, send a tell if your around.

Also posted in Earthen Ring rollcall:

Yuggoth, Undead Warlock
Grukthor, Orcish Warrior
Earthen Ring

Achimonde (no queues anymore)

Raedarr, Hunter
Poeden, Paladin

Looks like Blizzard heard the unwashed masses.

Server Status (http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/serverstatus/)

Damn, and I was beginning to like the lame ass forum shit they were pulling.

Proudmoore: Bryce - Human Warrior.

I'm rollin' myself up the WoW ramp! I'm about the shittiest, least obsessive MMORPG player ever and I'm at level 16.

I rather enjoy the crafting, but I wish player could open their own stores ala' most other MMORPGS, or at least make the auction houses easier to get to. I usually end up banging out shitloads of equipment I don't need to raise my Blacksmithing skill, and then end up selling it to the NPC merchants since I have no earthly idea what to sell it all for.

Get yourself to Earthen Ring! Either be a human there so many of us can kill you, or go evil and beg for money and items from the rest of us.
