One of my favorite--if not dumbest--memories took place only a couple of days after I started playing.
I chose to make a Night Elf, starting in the Darnassus area. I had never played a game like World of Warcraft before, and I was amazed by everything I saw. So amazed , as a matter of fact, that while staring at a giant Darnassus tree-looking guardian, I accidently ran off the map !!!
Yes....I fell off Darnassus. Good times...good times. LOL !!!
I am not a man of many words...but you struck a heart string here.
My favorite time in WoW was actually bringing two copies (wife and I) home and installing it and seeing how "fun" it was, compared to other mmos we played. it ran so smooth compared to other MMO's at the time..(2004 and we had dial up internet!)..even before the "Battlegrounds" was even put into the game.
I play Warcraft 1 and 2 with my old military buddies back when a 333mhz right before the pentium cpu was available in my area and Voodoo 3 video card was bleeding edge technology before Nvidia bought them out. So we was fans of Warcraft already.
On another occasion, later after BC we had some good folks in our guild who helped a lot...never really asked where they was from, just on our realm, and low and behold when I took my pc into my little town's pc shop we got to talking, and "Angelsteel" and his employee's was them!!! what are the chances in that? being on our realm? living in same town? actually meeting!!
It was great!
WoW forever!
Coming to WoW late, the best raiding experience I recall was downing Ragnaros during Cata. We were a casual bunch of players and it took us weeks before we finally cleared Firelands. The euphoria and joy from that one encounter reminded me of how games like WoW have so much more depth that just a "video game" people usually associate with negative connotations. One aspect I still clearly remember was on my lock during the "ping pong" phase of the encounter. Rag was low but unfortunately everyone was dead except me and being the least experienced player, that's not where you want to be and yet everyone was cheering me on to keep going! We did not down him then but it was definitely the most fun I had for a failed attempt.
Keep Moving Forward Blizzard!
