Neriad is leaving the Lurking Loungers

[kandrathe]

Well, jeez!  I just did Horde, because the Amazon Basin was doing horde with their PvP, and I figured we could hook up with them and use them as a resource.  If enough people want to play alliance PvP, I would be fine with that.  Let's pick a server and start forming up!

Or, hey, what about playing on a role-playing server?  We never hear any discussions about that here.  Is there any interest in that?

Zippyy was asking about Tich usage in the GC on Stormrage the other day. Frankly, I decided one day when Stormrage was on the fritz to start a character on Tich. I found the lurker channel and did the greets and there was occasionally someone else chatting, but no responses to me. Over the next couple days I worked my undead mage "Malencolie" up to level 5 and there she has stayed. I don't think I was invited into the Lounging Lurkers yet. I conciously chose Stormrage in February because it had a critical mass. If it had been a PvP server, I still would have followed the herd just because (as we all know) it is better to play with people who have a clue.

But since then, I've been committed to primarily one Stormrage character and her supporting cast. Even my experience on Stormrage with sometimes 20-30 lurkers on simultaneously is, that I've fallen in between most of the others. And I know there are a few, like Trispal, NightSilver or Trembal, who are now in the same boat I am in. Many smaller, many larger, but no one who needs to do the quests you need to do. Some of us have formed small cliques who mostly party exclusively with each other. And, I find now that I fall into that "if only I could get to XX level, then I could be invited to the party" thinking. I think I was late enough starting (Feb) and moved slow enough now for most people's alts to almost catch me.

But then, possibly, by the time I get to 60 all the current 60's will have completed there 5 man runs in Scholomance, or UBRS, or BRD and have moved on to other things. I hope not.

and ...

<whisper> I secretly play RP on Silver Hand sometimes when the others are down. </whisper> But I'm not committed to that server and the 3 characters there are small (10,12,14) and replaceable.
