WoW is my first 3D game. I started with Dark Castle on my Mac in 1986. Never ever played a 3D game. Joined my first text based rpg somewhere in the mid 90s. Was never a big gamer. In 2004 I joined a popular mafia text based rpg. As I wanted to have several builds I had to violate the TOS (only 1 char allowed per person), which resulted in a whole suite to manage that. Played that game for 4 years. Last year i joined a static 2D 'fantasy' rpg, played up to 12 toons simultaneous when someone showed me a link to a 'crazy wow player' article, which turns out to be prepared. While most found that crazy, i found that cook :P Thats how i learned it was possible to box.

Back to october: i got bored with the game i was playing after reaching everything possible. A friend told me about warhammer. Went to the shop to buy it, but to no avail, out of stock. So I bought a copy of WoW classic by accident. Took me a couple of days before I installed it, a few more to sign up, Ever since I first logged in I'm hooked. A week later I started to box with 5 toons. Got 5 more fully upgraded accounts ready to box 10 toons in the future.

I'm boxing cause I don't like to count on other players. I'm not a social gamer, only with people who share the same interests. Which turns out to be boxing.

Why I haven't changed servers yet? First want to ding 80 (hope somwhere next week). Then want to make use of my raf to boost 4 more teams. Signed up on the EU pvp realm mentioned above. Still unsure if i'll transfer my toons or if i will stay on my current server and level up a few teams there. My biggest doubt is that being active on 2 servers. If there was an option to transfer all my toons (besides my main team) at once, i'd probably do it right away (so account transfer instead of toon transfer). But transfering 15 toons is a bit expensive after purchasing tig copies of the game with the upgrades just a month ago.

good read - welcome to wow boxing ! also grats to you if you can get your first team to 80 and still have time to boost 4 more teams in a single RAF ? it took me a lot more than 90 days I think to get my first team/toons to 80

My guild has a vent server (thanks mikey! :D ). But its only for my guild members. :)

I choose my server because the data center is close to me (under 100 pings) and at the time there was a lot more ally then horde (Im horde) so I would have more targets/victims.

I did see 2 other boxers though so far one horde and one ally iirc.

Im on Ner'zhul and it seems ok. I wouldnt go to a non pvp server anyways.

thanks
Well my first team dinged 60 after about 2 weeks. Not very spectacular given
- the excellent info that is available here
- the great attitude of boxers willing to help noobs and put them in the right direction here
- a guide that tells you basically what to click, where to go and what to do ... one has to be rather retarded to get lost with such a tool
- having enough free time to play, or create the time eventually cancelling a free lance project with the reason being 'too busy' :P
- having 3x xp ....

I figured I can level a team to 60 once I hit 80 with my main in a day or 2-3 (have read stories here from people that can do it way faster, but i guess i'll have to learn the instances first). It's simple math. Since my raf is valid till 18/01/10 I should have plenty of time to level 4 more teams to 60.

Sorry for going off topic

I usually play 8:30 a.m - 3 p.m. CST.

I was a server gypsy, moved so many times as a single boxer looking for the 'right' server:
Mags
Jubei Thos
Frostmourne
Ghostlands
Tichondrius (ally and horde) still have an ally mage there
Barthilas - (almost perfect)

and finally found it - Caelestrasz. I wouldn't move if you paid me and don't transfer here - we have enough boxers. Caelestrasz is not for you ;)

Mostly because I have a lot of chars and it'll be costly to move. I'm not going to start from scratch again, so moving is the only option. However, the company of other boxers would be very nice - especially when rated BGs hit.

I've reached the point where I'd be willing to shell out for a transfer, now I'm just making sure I'm making the right choice ($275 for transfers + faction change - eek) by moving to the EU boxer capital. My current battlegroup (Cyclone) seems pretty soft, but the alleged nasty Misery battlegroup is another matter and I'm a PvP noob since last I PvP'ed was back in BC :-)

but i did move to KJ and even joined LoB. i have too much free floating cash not to waste some of it on wows :)

It very interesting to read your stories :)

Keep em comming, so my day at work will feel shorter :p
