glad I did the 10 day free trial
I did the 10 day free trial just recently and I have played about 3 days. The game is very repetitive. I played 3 different races and each of their quests was pretty much the same: go kill so many of these monsters, go retrieve this item, collect so many of these items, collect so many things by killing these creatures. I saw quiet a few 70th level characters just standing around. I will probally take it off my computer in a few days. I like my Rpg time sinks with more of a plot. The graphics are really cool though. If you want a good storyline try scrolls of morrowind III or dragonquest 8. Single person games. If you like running around and killing things play Diablo 2 or the doom or quake series. If you like a hundred different players trying to fight the same quest and causing you to wait around until monsters respawn so you can finish your quest the WoW is for you. Plus I can spend $20.00 on a game play it for 60-200 hours and be happy I am done with it and have a sense of accomplishment that I won the game and have no monthly fees. WoW I can see being some form of self inflicted torture that you cannot escape.

Immature Players
The problem with Warcraft is that you have to deal with loads of immature players. Some go far out of their way to make things hard for others, just because its fun for them. This kind of behavior is technically against the rules, but reporting them never accomplishes anything.

I made the mistake of prepaying my account for six months or so, and I'll keep playing until then (even I'll admit its pretty fun at times), but I'm not renewing after that.

Love this game!
I bought this game for my teenage son. He says he just loves it. It is the most fun game ever. He plays it all the time when he's not in school or doing chores or homework. He says it is the best game he's played.

How to best enjoy this game(it's my favorite)
Hello folks!! here's how to enjoy this wonderful game(advice from an advanced player with several classes)


1.Choose ONE class and a race and a nice name for the character, choose any you like take your time and remember there is no wrong choice!!
For the moment while exploring the world of warcraft stick to one character as it will ease your time management.


2.keybind all your spells and abilities. What i mean is use your keyboard to perform tasks and also to fight instead of using your mouse to click the visual indicators on screen.use your mouse to move your character. open your spellbook using the "p" key and drag skills/spells to your action bar and hit the corresponding key on the keyboard to activate the skill/spell. For example if you need to shoot a fireball , hit the fireball key instead of clicking the fireball button on the action bar ..this will help you in the future.

3.To talk in the open for everyone who is close beside you type a slash then a letter "s" i.e "/s" before anything you want to say.

"/1" to talk to talk to everyone in the general channel of the area you are in.
"/2" to talk to everyone in the trade channel in the major city you are in

"/g" to talk to those in the guild channel(if you are in a guild)

and of course "/hi" when targeting a friend or enemy will automatically pass a hearty hello to the target if you press enter

4.when you get time,go to the nearest major city and ask to join a guild for new players and make sure it has many players...usually at least over 30 active players.
