Obviously, I'm an altaholic. There's a pretty good argument to be made that I'm also to grown up and tied down to get any serious WoW play done. I've been playing since April and my highest character is right now at 58 ½. That includes a full three month recruit-a-friend at triple experience rate (Mumphred is 43)
I like playing different characters, classes and races. If no-one was listening and it was safe to do so I might admit to enjoying being on both factions as well. Nevertheless it was inevitable that I would eventually get to the point of needing an expansion to continue.
Seems like another opportunity to write to my future self.
Hello You (Me),
Just wanted to drop you a line and let you know that I'm about to embark on The Burning Crusade.
It probably seems strange to you now but I am not really sure how good it could be. I hear really good things. I get the impression that Blizzard are faintly embarrassed by Vanilla WoW, like it's the dodgy fan-fic they wrote before they got published. Or the demo tape recorded in their mother's basement.
Even so, from here, it seems like a new continent and more quests just seems like continuation. Don't get me wrong; I like what I'm playing now. Maybe it's peaking a bit in terms of industrial NPC packing processing and looting. But there's always something new around the corner. Different levels of play.
I'm doing fine, thanks for asking. My Auction House work is coming along. Got plenty of cash on both sides of the faction barrier now. Little bit less on the Alliance but everybody gets what they want. I believe I am on pretty good track to fly around Outland when I get there. Maybe I wont even need it. A druid should get flight form, right?
Tell me, Future Self, are you enjoying your Blood Elf Rogue? How is the Dranae Inscriber coming along? Making money? I have to ask, did my message reach you at exactly the moment before you upgrade to Wrath of the Lich King? I hope so because that puts you in a similar position to the one I find myself in now.
Do you think the changes will be the same? More so?
What can you tell me without spoilers?
See you in the future,
Me (You)

Yay! On to Burning Crusade. Watch out for the Fel Reavers and be careful not to fall off the mushrooms in Zangarmarsh once you learn to fly. Except you're a druid, so you can fall off things for fun. So nevermind on that.
From one WoW fan to another, I love it when a new blog post from you pops up on my Google reader.
Thanks, Jess... very nice of you to say so.
I've only been to Silvermoon so far to hunt the Pink Eliphantythings but it was Awesome.
(I was wearing beer goggles, though)
