I have landed. I ended up on Proudmoore, thankyou for your ideas and suggestions.
I guess I have run away.
I had pretty much lost all my reasons as to why I came to BR in the first place. I followed people from an old guild to the land of ‘milk and honey’ and was no longer playing with any of them – add that needing a break – losing motivation and I guess just plain giving up. I had a list big enough to leave.
I still have level 80 alts on BR, and they are all now safely under the wings of my bank guild so they can at least pretend they have friends 🙂 I have no idea what will become of them. They will probably be gathering dust initially once Cata comes out anyway.
And I have an up and comming baby druid I rolled for kicks – that might keep me somewhat occupied. I hope to get to at least tree form so I can run around singing Marina and the Diamonds
Running with my Roots pulled up Caught me cold so they could cut What there was left of Love
” I intend on doing it resto, and am somewhat annoyed that the better lobie talents for resto seem to be in Balance.
On my new realm I’m doing random things cause I’m kinda lost for things to do, so I did a Voa 10 ( and was nicely asked to heal it when they couldn’t get another healer) and I dps’d the weekly.
In both instances – someone went to the summoning stones, and started summoning without asking. People waited outside till everyone was there, people buffed without asking, and first impressions seem to be that everyone is a lot nicer to each other. Trade is pleasant. If trade could ever be so.
As for other stuff. I am going to a writers meeting tomorrow. Promise. If only so I can bask in the glory that is other people’s motivation – or maybe I can find a print out of a semi recent story to take and read – am still in the mood to write a drippy poem, but drippy poems are drippy poems and should remain banished from view.
Also spent some more money at a craft shop because I am making my own xmas cards this year ! And you will probably get pictures because well – it will be like SEE I have other hobbies that don’t involve WOW.
As for what else I plan to do in wow – I have no idea. I’m not stopping playing – just taking a step back a little. I’ve not looked at guilds – I just want to cruise as non committal for now because I think I should have a break.

Yay, Proudmoore!
Welcome 🙂
Having no obligations to raid or run the guild or even to be available to heal the random heroic is nice. I would love to be able to completely pull away, but someone needs to stay at the helm in the event that old friends show up for holidays, new pvp seasons, and cataclysm.
Still, I have been doing what I want, for the most part, and enjoying Azeroth without the the cutting binds of having to be prepared to raid at the drop of a hat.
I almost envy you your new server!
As a fellow Priest (admittedly a Healer) I really enjoy reading your blog so I hope you stick with WoW. I’ve been taking a big break myself. I still log in to raid with my guild – a fairly casual 10-man – once or twice a week, but I haven’t been doing a lot else WoW-wise lately. That will likely change after 4.01 hits though. I’m always a sucker for new ability configurations.
Hope you have fun on the new server.
give up! – Never. Would need a massive reason or a big enough distraction to do so, but a step back now is good, because I think the drive to level as fast as possible to 85 will keep my somewhat occupied
Welcome to Proudmoore.

@ Ngita and @Jasyla – Ta! 🙂
If I moved to any other server, it probably would be Proudmoore, but then again I find PVE servers lacking in excitement 😦
It does has a different dynamic – wasn’t as bad I thought it would be – I figured I had enough savings to never leave the cities, but it wasn’t that bad. We see how I go.
You were suppose to come to Dragonblight :O You know! The server people from Proudmoore bailed too?
but you guys are mostly active when us oceanics are asleep!
Dragonblight actually has a decent Oceanic community, guilds like Satellite, Deus ex Crux and Bloody Oath raid very late PST/Oceanic friendly :O (Heck! I think Deus ex Crux is even looking for a Shadow Priest!).
No tempting me with raiding :p though it’s been less Then a week and I’m getting an itch – but I’m doing more stuff !
I moved to Proudmoore many moons ago due to an email from a really good friend telling me how great it would be there (love you Heeb). Sadly the fun wasn’t to be had as I had drastically different raid times that I could attend. I have very fond memories of that server and loved how fast the queue times were (bg and otherwise) enjoy proudmoore as its a great server. I guess that I should mention that I’ve moved on from there quite a while back (it was the best server for my tank as my friends list was filled with tons of super healers)
I do appreciate your blogs. I’ve never commented back, figured I should. I just hate to see people get over run, and brought down due to the stupidity of people taking WoW way to serious. Keep your head up man. When someone brings it down, remember that there are guilds that look for people like you, hell I’m in a guild full of fun loving people, with lives outside of WoW. Congrats to proudmoore, cause the server has gained a great writer/player.
Keep writing, your inspiring thousands that may not write back, but appreciate you!!!!
