This one could be about 600 pages long, and in all honesty I could not mention the millions of nice things people have done for me in game. I will try to list as many as I can though – it is always good to thank the people out there who made this game what it is and not just moan about the idiots who make it that little bit of hell 🙂
My first guild was full of nice people who just wanted to help 😀 Auricthewise – pulled me aside one day when he saw I was wearing all manner of weird shit and explained to me that each class has specific stats..a mage wearing strength and agility was not the way to go 🙂 He spent a packet on the AH (back in the days before dailies so money was precious) and got me some upgrades 😀 I will never forget that kindness.
Theholyman and Alexelder, trundled me through Gadzetzan and Dustwallow marsh a few times to help me quest, fun times 🙂 Bomma running me through Deadmines repeatedly and making me fall in love with boomkins 😀
Senna, a fellow mage, i honestly can’t remember how we met, but s/he gave me money towards my first mount 🙂 s/he also spent a lot of time with me teaching me how to duel, pvp, rotate spells. All very important stuff as a mage!
Koliara and Dreddly – gave me a lot of support when doing the guild leading thing. That is both ingame and out as well, but basically being officers and doing bank organisation and being class leaders after a fashion, without wanting to actually be officers. It was a blessing.
Mithraci and Cayehn- for being co-gm’s with me and dealing with the shit with me and booting people and controlling the insanity.
Those are the four major things that actually come to mind when thinking about the nicest things. I mean after playing since Vanilla, I couldn’t just come up with one thing 🙂
Check out everyone elses thoughts – we are a lucky bunch if you ask me 🙂
I think Frinka did a great job writing this as a shared topic! It’s nice to hear the good instead of all the bad for a change 🙂
Yeah I really try to make an effort to write upbeat posts as often as I can, but sadly they are not the ones that set you on edge enough that you need to vent with your blog 🙂
Well people generally remember the bad with all things don’t they? It’s a shame..OMG!! Just had a blogstorming idea…o.O fantastic!
Hey dragonray — thanks for naming the names. I think it’s great to give the credit and it makes it real and personal, even if I don’t know them. I feel like I want to know them!
Yeah I only remember the names because to me it was so personal 🙂 I don’t’ usually remember names, but if they have a huge impact on me, I remember them.
I wonder if it is because I tend to think about them long after the nice thing has occurred, so it sort of sticks in the brain.
