I want your stories.

I used to actually play, Now I bot in it. Its pretty much just a whole different hobby because you spend all your time programming and setting up scripts so your guy kills stuff while you sleep.

Yup. I did it 2 years ago when the cap was still 60. I got my Mage to 60 on my own, then a Shadow Priest to 60 in 2 days, War to 60 in 1 week, and I was in the process of a Warlock when I got banned. I set it, went to class, came back and I was banned. I miss it sometimes, but I'm glad I actually have free time again. I wouldn't be able to rejoin again because I would need to be in a highly ranked guild. I was in the 5th world guild to clear BWL before I got banned

. We had that ____ on farm status a week after clearing it lol.

I used to play actually but I was never in to raiding or getting great items since I didn't care lol. Was more interested in just running around ganking lowbies

Camping them etc.etc. Then I just realized $15/mo was a LOT so I just stopped.

Haha funny you mention that. I don't get the shakes, but I think about activating my account all the time because I have a 70 shaman and hunter that have their epic sets... and a ____ ton of loot and gold, but I just can't. I was also at I think Walmart at midnight and saw the line waiting for the expansion. I did wonder over to the electronics to see if they had any left, but thought it was best to just go home.
