Hello everyone. I hope I'm posting this in the right area, but if not, could someone alert me to my error x_x
As some of you might remember, a long time ago I made a thread all about EQ and the adventures that people had in the world of Norrath. That was a long time ago, before WoW had hit the market and EQII was still being planned. I've condensed this (with the help of an awesome friend) into a single site. The stories are divided by name, and they are stories that were originally posted by forum members.
EQ Stories here!!! (http://computepage.com/stories/index.php) That was being worked on for well over 2 hours, so I hope you people appreciate it :P
Now, the purpose of this thread was to sort of remake that thread, but allow for all manner of stories. Be it from WoW, EQII, SWG, UO, EQ, whatever. I'll get things started with a WoW story of my own.
I will never forget when my friend and I first decided to strike out and pillage the Horde lands for ourselves. Me being a wee priest, freshly dinged level 30 or so, maybe a little less, and my mage friend a bit above or below me, we were prepared to take on the world and decided to try our luck. He had to leave soon, so we decided the fastest route would be from Darkshore (I think that's the name, haven't played in a while.) We were planning to trek halfway across the continent and then some, simply to battle the Horde.
First, we spent about half an hour just trying to cross a large mountain that we figured would decrease the time it took. Surprisingly enough, this was not an option. So then we began to run down and started the journey which ended up taking us, like, an hour to complete. A few months later we realized we could've taken the boat to a certain sea-bordering hold that's name escapes me at this time. That would've taken us a lot less time. We never really did get to wage our epic war, because we ran out of time once we'd gotten there. Still it is something my friend and I like to joke about.
There are other stories, such as how my friend and I sort of caused the crash of Stormrage server (in our opinion) and when we were in our mid-teens and in Redridge and I absentmindedly lead us into a group of level 20 elites that resided in the mountains in the south, simply because I thought Darkshire was that way. But those are for a different time. So now, share your stories!
PS- If I get as many responses as with the EQ thread, I will add them to the site as well. Don't forget that this isn't restricted to WoW or EQ or anything. Any and all MMO's welcomed!
Edit- Thanks to whoever moved this.
