- The first character I ever rolled was a druid
- It took me five or six tries to finally stick with a warrior
- I once thought my warlock would be my main
- I've deleted a level 50 priest
- And a level 30-something rogue
- I have tried gender-bending many times but there's always something about the movement of a man toon that irritates me to where I can't keep it
- I think that people who won't play a certain class or race because "it's too evil" are stupidlame
- I also think that no one is going to get addicted to something in real life just because they played a belf who was addicted to magic
- Speaking of addiction, the idea that WoW is harmfully addictive is a crock. It's fun and some people just have no self control
- My baby huntard is still BM because I sort of like lol ez mode
- I also deleted a 20-something mage back before they super accelerated 1-70 xp gain
- I find the death knight class to be boring as hell but I'll get one leveled anyway
- People who act like their time is more important than that of anyone else they are in party/raid with make me stabby
- PvP is unhealthy for my desk/keyboard/mouse and At's ears, so I try not to deal with that aspect of the game
- If someone leaves my guild on bad terms I will carry a pretty unreasonable actual hatred of them to the point where I have cheered to hear that someone's real life fell apart
- And yeah, I know it's just a game
- But that doesn't mean that people can't be real douches in a fake environment
- I once had a GM tell me that my opinion as an officer wasn't worth his listening to it
- That may have been the reason I cheered when I heard his real life fell apart. Maybe
- I find that there are some struggles to being female and in a leadership position
- But I will never ever use that as an excuse when I make a bad decision or am otherwise stupid
- I don't think being female gets me any perks in WoW
- Unless you count being told that being a bossy raid leader is hott
- I have gotten a couple pervs before - that was interesting
- Even though we sometimes struggle with content for a while I do think Blizz is making the game as a whole too easy
- At scoffs at me whenever I start in on how no one should get ponies at 20 or flying at 60
- I used to think I would never level fishing or cooking on any character
- My main is max exalted with all WotLK factions except Ashen Verdict
- Lately I change Alas' hair every few weeks because I would do it in real life if I could
- I think Renaissance faires are an awesome excuse for dressing up
- Alas was not supposed to be my main because of her name
- I have a different name I use everywhere else online but that name ended up attached to a nelf huntard
- That huntard got deleted at 44 to make way for my DK with the same name
- I've met several of my guildies irl even if it did mean driving to the deep South (imo) to do so
- Alastriona is the Gaelic form of my middle name
- And I cringe every time someone pronounces it "Alas-tree-OH-nuh"
- The first time I healed a raid it was in Kara and I didn't have any helpful addons, such as grid or healbot
- Of course, that was the PUG raid that wiped on chess, trufax
- I call At "At" in real life but I almost never call him by his real name
- I'm ridiculously addicted to FarmVille, even though I see how brainless it is
- Of course, I also deal with faculty and buying random crap for a living (me, every other day: "How the hell do I buy printer memory? Printers have memory?") so I try to avoid that as much as possible
- Unless I plan on writing either the fanfic or the novel, then I'm all worky worky worky
- I lol at people with naming conventions
- I am super cheap, to the point where even though I have over 30k across my toons, I still won't buy anything off the AH unless I absolutely have to
- The cheapness also means that many of my characters don't have epic flying
- I will not play undead, trolls or orcs because they're ugly
- I will not play gnomes or dwarves because they're short
- I would totally do any draenai - male or female
- I have some moderate OCD tendencies
- I needed this list to have a random number and an alliterative title

Yeah, I agree. Those with naming conventions are lame. Oh.. wait.. nevermind. I didn't say anything.
ReplyDeleteYou coulda trimmed it to 42 things then it'd have been COOL!
ReplyDeleteDoes the fact that it's technically my 42nd post make it any cooler?
ReplyDeleteApparently you need to school me on the proper pronounciation of Alastriona
