Long Absence

Ok, I started this thing, and I had every intention of keeping it up and running, then I became a father in real life and all my spare time left. Now that things have settled down a bit, I figure I will come in here and post a bit now and again.

The Blood Money project is dead. It never went any further, but the DK project is probably still going to happen sooner or later. I'm now playing a Dwarf DK, and oddly, much as I think Gnomes rule for DKs, I'm really liking the Dwarf. I'm also playing a Forsaken DK on the Horde side, but he's more of just a gatherer than a real alt.

I've pretty much stopped playing on PVP servers, though I'm possibly just following my own leveling guide. That said, having played mostly on Normal servers in my limited spare time over the last four months (before that I played almost exclusively on PVP servers), I see nothing gained by actually playing on a PVP server. There really is no upside to them, there is no World PVP on a PVP server, just ganking, which isn't PVP, it's just rude.

Which brings me to an odd observation... I play both Horde and Alliance and on a Normal server I get to do that without having two accounts. I think both are tremedous fun, so what is with all the hate some players have for one side or the other? Probably because they were ganked to death on a PVP server. Yeah, lots of fun there, let's spread more hate and discontent in the world.

Anyway, more to come later, just wanted to note that I might actually post more here.
