Do we play the same games or something?

If we can get enough ATer interest we should form a guild and such. I think I had over 100 plat and plenty of loots in storage last time I checked...

you have excellent taste, spartan ;)

i just started today and have a level 7 character. i'm trying to finish all of the quests before leaving ascalon.


Etheral Archanous (now i notice that i spelled my name wrong :()
ranger (primary)
elementalist (secondary)


edit: man, i happened upon a few dyes (white, in particular) and now i have a crapload of money. woot :)

And you have excellent taste, Fenixgoon.

My first character was and is a Ranger/Elementalist. Currently Level 20 with a full Marhan's Grotto armor set.

I also have a 15 Mo/N with Drok's and a 15 Me/W with Drok's. Too bad they seem to have nerfed some of the skills I got 50 win streaks with... lol.

Edit: And no, I don't have regular access to a microphone or game-capable computer until August 15th.

i was Etheral Archanous :)

I'll go ahead and make the channel.
I forgot to ask, what's vent?:eek:, is it like Team speak?

vent is short for ventrilo. it's a client/server voice chat program. download it for free and connect to the AT server. some people hang out there just to chat.

Yes, Vent is a lot like TS. The only difference being that Vent requires a license for over 8 people(I think) but 8 people or under is free. As far as I know, TS has no such limitations and you can have as many people as you want on a channel as long as you have the bandwidth to support it. I might be wrong about Vent though. I'm sure somebody on here can shed some light on the situation if needed. :)

Wee, I'm actually having fun in Guild Wars. Finally. Took 3 years to do it, but I did it. lol
I think it's cause I'm really interested in WAR and wanted to get back into the MMO play, that and I found the things that I need to keep me interested... the rewards. lol
Previously I was just playing to do quests, and they bored me, because I didn't play for the rewards, I played for the exp points, and that grind got incredibly boring. For 3 years I'd play maybe a few weeks out of each year. Now I think I might have the drive to get through the campaign and pick up the other campaigns for the skill sets and heroes.

I prefer to drink at home, which works out well because the one girl I can hit on is at home too. :D So no bars to get in the way of Guild Wars time for me!
