Yeah, it does seem a little quiet around here. The macro forums are like a ghost town lately.

I should make a Youtube "commercial" with clips of lowbies getting ganked and corpse running, screenshots of inspecting people with all the wrong stats on their gear, and people /crying while copious descriptions of how people's moms were having all sorts of inappropriate relations scrolled through trade chat, and then set that Sarah McLaughlin song in the background and do a voice over about the ASPCN :P

OMG, I laughed so hard when I read this. I will gladly help make this video. Let me know the server and time and I will gladly roll a lowbie to help in the creation.

My laptop wouldn't be able to handle FRAPS, and I don't have any video editing software :( I'm marketing- all I do are ideas and mock-ups. I farm all of the production out to the art department :P

I thought that was still in the planning phases. Have they announced which guilds have been chosen?

Very nice- I'll add it. Thanks Cranky!

Heck, I'm willing to even take new players under my wing if they don't like any of the Guild Mentoring Program options. My realm is decent sized, and most people are helpful.

Just updated it again with the level-slow map Nuglar posted in another thread, from MMO Champ. If anyone has any other suggestions, please let me know.

That's a lot of links =). It may need to be sorted a bit, but oh well.
Also, thanks sas.

Elhonna,
Interest's comment about sorting made me think of the guide that I found that helps you write guides using BBC code. I'll put the link below for you. Might make it easier and cleaner than just a long list.
Guide to Writing Guides
Let me know if I can help with anything....even if it is typing the guide up in BBC and emailing it to you to copy paste.

I am not a coding person, really. It's not something I've ever done. If someone WANTED to go so far as to e-mail me my guide in BBC code, I would find that a fabulous help! But no pressure- lol.

Once this gets going a bit more Elhonna, Alf and I can help you spiff up some coding.
Let see if we can get some questions in here first.
Cheers,
Hat

Elhonna, I will try getting you a BBC code form written up sometime this week. Was going to do it this weekend, but had family show up out of the blue.

ElhonnaDS
No worries- I had family stuff all weekend too. 2-year-old birthday parties are some heavy stuff! My e-mail is in my sig.
Now I just need a lasso to get new people here to ask questions and read stuff. This won't be much of a thread if it's just you and I hanging out, and no one using it- lol.

Maybe we could just post some general nooby questions to get it started?

Then it might look like we're making fun :P
But as an anecdote:
I was recently helping a hunter who was max level, but wasn't really informed about what stats he needed, the appropriate uses of PvP vs. PvE gear, where to get glyphs, etc. I was helping him tame Deth'ilac, because he was really into the rare pets and such. So as I am explaining the strategy, I told him to make sure he kept aggro on the spider, and kept kiting him. He asked me where "aggro" was in his spell book.
A lot of times I get so used to using terms that I forget that they're not actually written anywhere in the game- lol.

You could at least use a list, ordered or unordered.
Post by
ElhonnaDS
@Interest....um, there is a list. I didn't number it because I didn't feel like they needed to be in any particular order. I'm not sure how to make more of a list than a making a column of things with a title.
