Poll is up.

WVUFAN

My suggestion would be Alliance.

Will this be PVP or PVE?

SirFozzie
01-20-2007, 12:11 AM
Well, it should be one of the new servers, so there won't be much PvP going on.. we'll either have to get someone to L10 to start the guild or bring someone over (maybe bring someone over with a lot of money to pay for our starting stuff? :D)

EagleFan
01-20-2007, 12:15 AM
I've got plenty of alliance characters, actually looking forward to trying a blood elf when I return home to see what the new area is like so I vote horde, but either works.

WVUFAN
01-20-2007, 12:21 AM
I think we should decide on a server, and then we all can get the alts started. Shouldn't take very long for some of us to hit L10.

SirFozzie
01-20-2007, 12:21 AM
whoever brings their character over will have plenty of free transfer servers... I'd prefer a rather new server, I am an alliance player, but up to whomever :)

EagleFan
01-20-2007, 12:35 AM
Posted a companion poll for server type. Figured we could get everything straightened out and started up. Just wish I could be an actual part of it but will jump in once I get back home (in 33 days :( ).

Alliance is for n00bs and 12 year olds. And Raiders fans.

Shkspr
01-20-2007, 12:45 AM
Let's be honest here...the lesbian blood elves are going to attract those types to the Horde. :)

Vince
01-20-2007, 02:02 AM
I voted Horde, simply because I have played the majority of my WoW on the Alliance side, and would prefer to see the other side of the coin. I really don't mind either way, however.

Cringer

I sat protect the Rebellion. Although if you can be Darth Vader then the Empire would be cool too!

Peregrine
01-20-2007, 05:06 AM
In my opinion, Horde is so much better and more fun to play it's not even funny.

thealmighty
01-20-2007, 10:33 AM
All my characters are Alliance so I voted Horde, again just to see what it has to offer. Don't really care which.

SirFozzie
01-20-2007, 11:36 AM
Since the choice was Horde, I chose a new RP-Server (Moon Guard), and created a Blood Elf Paladin to get things started (Dauren)

Alright, I will try WoW again and play...what server is it?

01-20-2007, 12:32 PM
Can I join you guys? I've never played this before, but I just picked it up. I don't have the expansion though.

SirFozzie
01-20-2007, 12:53 PM
Spleen, you'll be able to join the guild, but you'll have to wait to meet us, we are in the Blood Elf area (which is expansion only)

MacroGuru: It's Moon Guard

SirFozzie
01-20-2007, 12:59 PM
if any of you join, send a tell to Dauren or Deretha

Do our toons names have to start with a 'D?" Some secret guild thing? :)

SirFozzie
01-20-2007, 01:36 PM
Hah. Nope, came up with them seperately

MacroGuru
01-20-2007, 01:37 PM
bah...I downloaded everything for the installation last month, now trying to run the update, I am getting errors.

I don't know if I am going to be able to play...

Bearcat729

I chose my name by adding a letter to the name of my other character. It just happened to start with a D already.

ISiddiqui
01-20-2007, 01:43 PM
Horde!

I chose a new RP-Server (Moon Guard)
Ok, I'll make a Blood Elf Blood Knight there :D. Though that'd make two BE Paladins in our guild. Hmmm... maybe I should choose another class. :D

Vince
01-20-2007, 01:50 PM
I'm trying to decide what class to choose. I've already got a Paladin, Hunter and Rogue...maybe a Priest or a Warlock? Can Blood Elves be Warlocks?

ISiddiqui
01-20-2007, 02:00 PM
Yeah, BEs can be Warlocks.. and the added benefit that on an RP server, usually Warlocks and Paladins would be like oil and water, but with Blood Knights that isn't a concern :D.

edit: BEs can be any class aside from Warrior, Shaman, and Druid.

SirFozzie
01-20-2007, 02:02 PM
BE can be everything but Warriors (and Druids and Shamans)

WVUFAN
01-20-2007, 02:05 PM
I'll make a Blood Elf Mage.

SirFozzie
01-20-2007, 02:08 PM
I'm back online

Bearcat729
01-20-2007, 02:14 PM
Spleen, you'll be able to join the guild, but you'll have to wait to meet us, we are in the Blood Elf area (which is expansion only)



I'm sure it wouldn't take very long to meet up with a portal to the Undercity(The Undead capital city) having been set up in Silvermoon. So don't let the fact that you can't start out with us dissuade you.

spleen1015
01-20-2007, 02:19 PM
Do you guys have a recommended way of getting the patches?

I currently have the 2.00 version. When I try to play, the Blizzard Downloader pops up and it tries p2p to download what I need. It estimates it will be about 5 hours to download.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

ISiddiqui
01-20-2007, 02:25 PM
If you have a bitTorrent client, you can DL then far, far faster.

It's under Program Files\World of Warcraft\Cache.

Fouts
01-20-2007, 02:34 PM
I quit WoW a few months back due to the extreme raiding, but I could get into some casual playing. Maybe I'll grab the expansion.

Is Moon Guard a brand new server that started with the expansion?

SirFozzie
01-20-2007, 02:39 PM
Yup, Fouts.

spleen1015
01-20-2007, 03:11 PM
Finally got to play!

Is it worth it for me to join your Guild without the expansion? I started my character on the Moon Guard server just in case.

If I am going to join, how do I do it?

SirFozzie
01-20-2007, 03:17 PM
Basically, once we get going, I purchase a guild charter, and get everyone to sign it, and then we're official.

Hmm.. for a name that represents FOFC without being silly..

Foffsee? :D Guild Solecismic? :D

PackerFanatic
01-20-2007, 03:19 PM
I'd say its still worth it without the expansion, especially considering the biggest thing about it (Outland) can't be accessed until level 58 anyways.

So we are playing on Moon Guard...and I choose Horde :)

Why not? I mean we'll all end up in the Barrens at some point ;).

I'll start my FOFC Warcraft Guild character a bit later tonight. I have to weigh whether to be a Priest (Shadow), Rogue, or Paladan (Blood Knight).

PackerFanatic

PackerFanatic

Can we get a list started of everyones characters up to this point? We should have a good mix of the classes and I will make my character based on what we need :)

SirFozzie
01-20-2007, 03:34 PM
Fozzie- Dauren (BE Paladin)
Bearcat- Deretha (BE Hunter)
WVUFAN- Unnammed (BE Mage)

Initially, yes it does, but it does pay off in the end when you can do the really good stuff and charge mucho money...and people will pay it.

You should be able to be the same guy after you rename him, I think.

The whole RP server thing makes me wonder if we'll be asked to switch the guild name (there being few front offices in Azeroth and all). Maybe we can claim goblin backing.

Actually if you go to the Technical Support forum there will usually be a few mirror sites posted because of all the problems people have downloading. I don't know why this takes so long to download from Blizzard though.

He was probably doing a /who mage 65-70 in game to see all of the mages online on your server in that level range. Works fine as long as you return fewer than 49 characters from your search.

Warcraftrealms also has some broad information about server populations, although it's not always very up to date.

Opinions on processor and video card specs for WoW have always been pretty much all over the place, but everyone consistently reports that having as much RAM as you possibly can is a good thing.

When I started playing WoW, I had 512 RAM, and I noticed a significant improvement when I moved to 1 GB. If you have the means, I'd upgrade that first.

I think you'll be OK with the processor, and as for the video card, I'd google for advice or hints on WoW graphical options to see what you can tone down to get good performance from the video card.

You should be fine with processor, but like flere said, RAM probably affects performance the most. You can easily change video card settings to fit with the card you have, unless you are picky about how the game looks (then you would want a better card) But more RAM is always better.

What server did you guys end up on? I used to be a CL in the top Horde guild on my server, but my play time dwindled and I havent played in several months now. Was debating whether or not to get the expansion, I have very little time to play. How do you guys like it?

Update:

The Hunters rule the guild roost right now, as Spleendal hit Level 40 last week and picked up his mount (a War Wolf). He's now Level 42.

Deretha is the next to hit 40, as she should be L40 by the time you read this.

Behind them is Dauren (myself), and Trout, who are both L37, and Arlie, amongst others, who are in the mid30's (we spent most of yesterday convincing Arlie to put WoW on his laptop so when he travels he can still travel with us :D)

Speaking of Arlie: If any of you lowbies need an item or a loan, I'd speak to Doktar. Dok's been wheeling and dealing like mad, doing that classic market strategy of buying low and selling high to pick up more then 90 gold (at a time when all quest rewards offer like .5 gold tops).

We had one idiot in the guild who visited neutral ground in Booty Bay, and wanted to talk to the Dwarf Windrider. Of course, right clicking on an Alliance character doesn't talk to them. It attacks them.

Between the very angry Dwarf Windrider and the Gryphon that came out to protest at its master's mistreatment, the stupid idiot found himself reduced to a fine thin paste in about 6 seconds. Stupid idiot's teammate watched from a safe distance and laughed her ass off.

Hopefully, the stupid idiot seeing this in print will learn never ever to do that ever again.

BTW: Conversation from our four man-RFK run

Airgoria, one of our FOF WoW folks was on fire. Most of the drops were mail, and better stuff then he (he was only L25 at the time) had... so we had no problem with him needing it. It got to the point where he was winning most of the greed rolls as well.

So we finally meet up with the end boss, and the reward for defeating it was a Blue Axe.

Doktar: "Airgoria, if you win this item, I will have my succubus whip you"
Dauren: "Air.. if you win this I will SKIN you."

For once, Airgoria didn't win the greed roll, and the only non-WoW guy in the group (our Druid), gets the item.

Brew (the druid): "Geez guys, I think you skeered him"


(I'll leave it to Air if he's around to go off on the rant about Enchanters :D)

Did the first level of Stormgarde last night. Now that I know where everything is, I can help Deretha and Spleen and anyone else who has missions there.

Before too long, those missions will be grey for me. They've been green I think for my last 2 dings.

Tonight, Spleen, maybe then.. four missions, took about an hour to do (didn't help that Dauren, a Ret Pally, was the only healer.. which took me some getting used to)

Unfortunatly, I've been traveling for work a lot recently, so I haven't been on as much as I'd like :(.

I haven't been on for a couple weeks. Debating whether I still enjoy the game. I do enjoy MMO's, and this is the best one out there. I was hoping the new expansion would take me 1-70 with all new content.

I'm impressed that you guys have gotten up to your 40s already! I sort of got hooked on my main, who hit seventy recently, and I've been pushing hard to get to Karazhan lately. Add that to the fact that I had to take on a second job recently, and my WoW time has been mainly on Bodkin lately. I really enjoy running around with you guys, though, so hopefully I'll get back into it soon.

I've been playing Eliara (pally) more than Arkhorn (hunter) lately. I really enjoyed the run through RFC but, as most of the mainstay have passed me by, I've been mostly on solo'ing around Tranquillien later in the evening. :)

Thanks Foz, That weapon is a pretty sweet ass reward, and will probably take me to 40 when I get it. Im usually only on early sat and sun mornings though, so it might take me awhile to finish the quest.

And the guild as a whole has landed on a jackass paladin's shit list :D

What happened?

We were doing a quest in the HInterlands, and a 49 Blood Elf Paladin asked if she could tag along.

Well, she's the highest level (tied with Spleendal) character, and this mission is fairly tough, so we let her join.

She's really tough, which is good, but really a jackass, she never gives the rest of us a chance to recover mana.. which means we're dancing on the edge of big big trouble. When we do have mana, she's running from combat to combat without a rest and never healing herself, which means poor Eire and myself were spending all our mana healing her.

The last straw was at the top of the mountain the mission was on, where two people specifically asked for a minute's break to recover.

She ignored us and ran off to the next battle.

At the end of the mission,I gently try to say "Listen, when the healers ask for a break because they're low on mana, that means that the healers will be limited in saving folks"

She gets huffy "Well, no one died, so I think I'm going fine"

Well, the situation devolves from there, apparently she think that the healers are just portable bandaids devoted to her service, so she finally gets pissy andsays "I guess I'll go have to find a better group" and leaves the group, in the middle of a combat, causing a wipe.

She later continued jousting with Spleen via Tells

First class annoying bitch

I went ahead and started one. If no one wants it I can always delete it.
