This includes patch discussion, discussion about new servers, the expansion, debating over whether the game is overrated or not; whatever, just keep it in here.

May I suggest adding this world map to your links. It's really good it shows you everything and everything in the world from flight roots to locations a town. A must for any WoW player if I may say so myself.

This is a sweet site for WoW maps, including instances :) http://worldofwarcraft.gameamp.com/ The instance maps are awesome and they even tell you where each boss is located as well as the loot they drop.

Ya know something I would really love in WoW that they haven't done is adding in the core game... waypoints.  Or map pin points that you can put down anywhere and be directed torwards it on the minimap.  I know there are addons for it but most of them don't do it cleanly and once they go out of date due to a major (or in some cases minor) patch... you lose the ability to do it till someone fixes or updates it.

You can access your account from any computer that has WoW on it. You can't access the same account on two seperate computers at the same time however. If you want to play at the same time with a friend, they'd need a seperate account altogether.

One thing i would like is the ability to follow any party member no matter how far away they are, unless they like go from one continent to the other or something like that.That 50 yard limit is pretty annoying, especially when trying to follow somebody who is in wolf form.

Wow is a great game. It's the community and the lack of server capacity that made it soooo bad.

I started playing back in september. But then something happened and my card screwed up. I wish I could play more but I have no way to pay for it :( Wish I did though. I had only played for like half a month and I had a lvl 15 rogue. I hope it'll still be there when I am able to get back on. Will it?

I have a question... I, like many others are new to the game, and I'm wondering... What are the advantages to leveling in a group.. I've heard you get mroe Xp, but I seem to get about 10 xp each kill and I lose all my loot to others.. Or maybe things are happening I just dont know about... Fill me in.

Only group with people around your level.That's the only thing i can explain that would make that happen.Also make sure the loot type is either group loot or round robin.

Also, it depends on what class you are I think. Like myself as a rogue, I have been able to solo all the way to 15. I am going to solo til 60 unless I decide to do instances towards lvl 20, which I might :P

Patch 1.10 impressions? I've been playing on the test servers and although I can't say anything about what is in the new patch I can say this, Priests are lucky. Have fun Priests!

I, myself, am a Rogue. We aren't getting decked out this patch ~_~ and that really sucks. Anyways, have fun!

It is not true.

You don't gain experience by not playing. However, as you're logged out, your character gains what is called "rest state." If you come back 2 days or 3 days or even a week later, you'll find that the experience you get from killing monsters is double the normal rate. This lasts briefly until you return to normal. You gain rest state faster if you log out in a major city or at an inn.

guys, i've played this game, and i liked it. but, to be honest,and don't get me wrong, i like wow, it is nothing compared to final fantasy 11. the game is much more advanced, and way more of a challenge. the jobs in this are , but in ff11 they are ten times. you may have pets, but the ones we have on ff11 are way nicer: them being giant demons or wyverns. besides, you can't beat our graphics :D

i like this game, i play it, but i prefer ff11, which lol, i am subsequently banned form for a month. so, how do i get my mount, i'm a night elf warlock?. i hear they have good ones

I'm not a very social person. It sounds like you have to mostly play in groups? Should I bother with Wow?
