post what you do when you're bored, doesn't need to be on wow.

My most recent evils:
1) Wiped 25 man Naxx group 2 times before they even entered the instance. Giving about 60 alliance (sometimes same person) a repair bill.
How to do: Stand outside and rotate Thunderstorm between you shamans. TS them off the ledge and yell "ENJOY THE REPAIR BILL FROM FALL DMG DEATHS"
2) Send your own faction members across the map looking for stuff that doesn't exist.
How to do: While farming saronite ore, randomly give coords of a titanium node (that doesn't exist) on the other side of the map. Sends people running to the other side of the map for something thats not there while you mine every saronite/titanium node on your side of the map.

yes... I was THAT bored.

Learn which "your" to use in forum thread titles :P

After that try out all the forms of "there."

But really when I'm bored I just scan every forum I know of for something I haven't seen before.

Don't feel bad. I've seen physics professors make the same error.

I don't get bored too often since I spend 5 days a week living out of a suitcase, but when I do I read. Currently, I'm reading The Lies of Locke Lamora, by Scott Lynch. Not bad.

Bored on wow - gank or do old school raids with guildies

Bored off wow - Play my clarinet (whats wrong with a guy playing a clarinet!? Its epic being able to play the LotR hobbit theme song lol) Watch tv/movies (all downloaded, live tv is shit) Read (Just finished the Bourne Ultimatum, tbh I prefered Ultimatum > Supremacy > The Original, but I guess thats cause character development and storylines delved even further, started The Pelican Brief this mornin) will be adding Kayaking to my list in 2 paychecks time :)

but yeah /meh

When I'm bored with Wow, (doesn't happen often thou since I always try to have goals);

1. Work on my Professions. I have a long way to go with Enchanting | Tailoring | Inscription | Alchemy | Blacksmithing
2. Ride around gathering herbs or mines. <---- (Give me some tunes and I will complete "zone out" for 3-4 hours. I'm always surprised by how many stacks I've gathered in that amount of time)
3. Do old world instances.

Got a new one for what you do when your bored of wow again. You all noticed how much fun it was when your first started tearing stuff up boxing right. Well it got to the point where with my eyes closed i knew what i was doing and what buttons to push. So for a change in pace i went back to single playing hehe. I was like a kid in a candy store all over again. Since i 5 box on a laptop all setting are bare minimum. Went to single reset just for that run everything high setting i was like omfg thats what wow looks like. Running around no worry about phasing and losing follow or lag spikes losing follow or getting slaves stuck. All n all if you get bored go play on a single character for a little bit. After that you wont be bored anymore when you see how long it takes to kill something with one person whew.

I did this with 2-boxing for a while.

Very different experience compared to 5.

Single boxing is fun?? What kind of blasphemy are you spouting? Go away with you both and stop spreading these rumors before others hear you.

I enjoyed raid healing on my priest when I was single boxing, I still do but I really hate the whole 'I have to lock in three hours on this day this day and that day'. I like to be able to get home and just have a beer and watch tv etc and not have to worry "oh shit can't do that gotta get ready for raid"

I miss doing raid content and all the excitement of a well coordinated group that's lead by a good leader, but I really hate the military like commitment you're talking about too. Sometimes you just want to relax when you get home and do absolutely nothing.

That being said, I haven't solo boxed in well over a year, and I don't see myself doing it again anytime soon.

Having been in the army reserves I don't mind the commitment required. Because you see, it's even worse trying to get a raid organised and having to wait for people to log on. The whole point of it is to find a time people can make so you know exactly when you have to raid and you get the rest of your time on wow to do what you want.

Apart from that, I LOVE the pre-bc raids and try to finish them every week. I want to go around dump city with 4 shammies and pally in full t2.

Pally t2 is the BEST thing Blizzard has done in this game, end of discussion!

I don't even know what to do with myself when I only have to play 1 toon. "Should I go hit that? I'm kinda borded just standing here. Damn, this is going slow. Grrr, I'm tapping my dps keys again. Zzzz...Wha...wha? *dance* Oh, I guess I can't make real people autofollow me."

Eventually I just start thinking about other macros I can make and practicing alternate button placement.

Just this morning I was bored and looking for something to do. So i took my 80 DK to UBRS and got the Jenkins title. Went down into BRD and killed the king for the achievement. Went over and solo'd Onyxia again (filling my bank bag slots with onyxia bags ;)) Some friends logged on (lvl50) so I ran them thru BRD, full clear with no deaths, there both now half way to 53! Went thru Strat about 10 times trying to get the Baron mount, at least i'm getting rep... Debating if i want to slaughter Bootybay for the Bloodsail Admiral achievement, maybe do that tomorrow.

I line up my team in a crowded city, set down 2 walls of totems, go ghost wolf form and /dance. Usualy some people come with comments like "omg fucking retard has no life". Then I start a polite conversation which provokes them into nerd rage and more insults.
... and then I report them to a GM, add to friends and enjoy watching their names as offline for next few days.
Less people playing - less server lag!
