Well..hopefully we will have enough people to make a GAF guild. If not I will go on the server where most of the so called big guilds that everyone is afraid of is going. Heh..I do want to compete with so-called PVP veterans even if a bunch of them are antisocial devients.
One of the reasons I left FFXI was the lack of leaving any kind of mark on the community no matter what you kill or how you killed it made not much of an impact considering you had to do it with 20 other people or the japanese players have already beaten you (the fact that one got fenrir the same hour he was added to the game was crazy).
I feel that PVP is one way to make that kind of impact at least among the community and I might as well put myself among big boys.
Of course if we do make a GAF Horde guild all I just said is null and I'll join whereever it forms (as long as its a pvp server).

MrCheez said:Looks like I'm going Horde side of the Roleplaying MST server.Would love to play with GAF, but I've got too many real life friends going that way. =/
Let me know if anyone wants to join us.We'll probably be starting our own crazy guild.
I'll wait and see how it goes tomorrow. If Gaf Guild can't get it together, then I'll join you.
Gamestop won't sell it to me till tomorrow, and I can't find any other stores with the collectors edition.

@ the local EB's. They wen't from saying "Welcome to EBgames, your Nintendo headquarters" to "Welcome to EBgames, where you can pickup World of Warcraft tomorrow morning".
Methinks they're getting annoyed at all the calls asking if it they're willing to sell it today..

Ok after confirming with my friend again, the mal'ganis server that we're apparently joining is the central one. So if there's anyone going central pvp, let's all meet up on mal'ganis.

Actually a few of my friends are going alliance. One of em was in some big lineageII clan and now they're moving to WoW. I'm guessing they're gonna be pretty big on the clan raids. As for me, I'm going horde, and it's my plan to hunt down my alliance friends whenever possible and take them down. And during beta, anytime someone sighted some alliance members in xroads I dropped everything to help. I mean damn, why play on a pvp server if you're just gonna quest? There are pve servers for that.
Heh, questing is how I get all my exp. Went from 1-26 through just questing. I'll be surprised if it slows down as you get higher level.
Me, personally, I won't be dropping what I'm doing to kill some horde guy running around an alliance area every time. Especially if it's no where near my current location.

Was your friend in the goon squad?

Oh sure..I don't mean traveling across two continents to take out someone. Just that if it seems reasonable you would do it (though I have done that a few times).
Just don't like the attitude that some people had in beta saying their is no reason to even pvp since there is no reward (even though they rolled into a pvp server?). Don't want to end up in a guild with guys that wanna do mostly pve with a little pvp on the side every now and then.

I'll be getting my copy at midnight.
And I agree with mjunter. I like questing and all, but I'd rather be in a raid clan rather than a questing clan. That's just me though.

Well, doesn't look like a GA guild is going to happen. If anyone else is going to play on a mst pvp server, you should send me a pm.
Malakhov said:That blows, then again I want to play on a pvp east server, that's where my friends are gonna play so

Does anyone have any idea when battlefields are actually going to be implemented? Depending on how they work I'm considering just making my chacter on a PvE server and using the battlefields to get my PvP fix.
I emailed Blizzard a few days ago asking about game cards and this is the response I got:
Seems that those of us planning to pay with game cards are SOL if they're not out tomorrow. If any of you see the cards available when you pick up WoW in the next few days could you post here saying what store you found them in? I'll be going out tomorrow looking, but if they're not available I'll probably be waiting until I get word that they've been released.

Woo Baggins!
Got my gf and myself a copy of WoW today. Picked it up at Circuity City (Skokie, IL). I called to ask if they had it available 2 hours ago. Much to my surprise the person answering said yes. Guy said they had 10 copies and if I made it their by closing time, I should be able to secure a copy.
We get there and see that there's only 2 copies left. We immediately grabbed said copies and went to checkout. Rep there scanned it and then went to go get a manager (w/o even communicating that). So he comes back with another clueless person who is unable to figure why the game is not ringing up on their machines. After figuring out that he would be unable to help us (it only took a whole 10 minutes!), he sent us to Customer Service.
There we met a guy who had been ringing up other people's copies of WoW this evening. He took a look at our copies and began doing something computery-magicky. Things are looking good at this point, but then the store manager comes to investigate what this rep is doing and asks him,"What the hell are you doing?". At this point I'm starting to think about what type of scene to make if the manager denies me the sale (given that I called and was told over the phone that they were selling them tonight).
This post is already too long, so I'll just say that a scene was not needed. The manager basically told the rep that after my sale, to make sure no more copies were allowed on the store floor.
For once in my life, I benefitted from retail people's incompetence. :lol
I'll be checking out the servers @ midnight, and post them here shortly afterwards.
Edit- Solrak's at that very same store now getting the CE. I doubt they'll succeed in denying him of it. Nothing gets between that man and what he wants. Especially WoW. :lol

I just got back from the same store Paradise was in and MAN....do I HAVE A STORY FOR J00!!!
Paradise called me up earlier this evening at work telling me that a particular CC was selling WoW today. So I called to confirmed and I was told the same thing...'yes...we are selling it.' Since they were operating on holiday hours already, I was able to get there after work. When I got there, I went to the back shelf where the PC games were stacked but no luck. I then asked one of the reps. He told me to 'see customer service'. As I was waiting in line at customer service, I saw the Collector's Ed on the table. I asked for it from the rep there and she said 'sure, but we have been having problems scanning it.' She tried to scan it and she was right...it wasn't scanning. One of the Managers walks up and told me the same thing she did, but was going to get another item priced at $79.95 and make the changes on the receipt and sign it. As they were looking for another item, another person with the regular Ed stood behind me. She said she was looking for 2 copies but could only find one. The manager asked her where did she get the copy. She replied 'by the back shelf....hidden.' The manager called one of the reps to the desk and asked him 'didn't I tell you to take all the WoW copies of the floors shelves?' He replied 'I did.' The manager gave him this pissed look and said 'then how come she has a copy?' The rep had a dumb-founded look on his face and was sent to make sure there were no copies left on the floor. When asked if she could buy another copy, they said they could only sell that one to her. As I was signing my name on the receipt, manager #2 called central to see what was the problem. I just finished getting the receipt handed to me when manager #2 was in the minst of telling manager #1 why they were not scanning.
Manager #2: We are not suppose to be selling these until tomorrow.
Manager #1: What??? What do you mean??
Manager #2: Central told me that the release date is tomorrow and if we sell them before the release date, it's a $500 fine for every copy we sell.
Manager #1: .....oh shit!!
Then both of them start pointing fingers at each other for selling copies prior to mine (i.e. Paradise's copy). Then the woman with the regular Ed was told she could not buy it even though she had it in her hands. She got pissed because not only was she denied a second copy, she also wanted the collector's Ed which I bought being the last one available, and now she wasn't going home with WoW at all. I felt bad for her.
needless to say....I GOT MINE!!! WHERE'S YOURS!?!??!?!
