TOG - The Older Gamers

Are you over the age of 25?
Have you read and agreed to the Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) and FAQs
Have you read and agreed to the Forum and Server Guidelines.

I can confirm I have done all of the above - got to love c&p

I am currently 43yrs old <ouchies>. My earliest recollection of having a 'problem' with computer games, was aged 16. I was actively enjoying 'another' flirtation with a pub based game of the original 'space-invaders', when the landlord approached me and said, 'do you realise your girlfriend left half an hour ago?'

.

I entered the onling gaming community a few years ago, and was smitten immediately. I levelled a 'Blademaster' to 50 in DAoC, a 'Guardian' to 50 in EQ2, and a 'Warrior' to 51 in WoW - never quite got into this game for some reason.

The game I have waited for for 4 years is now upon us - 'Lord of the Rings Online'! Been playing for about 5days and have my new love - 'Ironhorn' <lvl18 Guardian> - is plying his trade on the 'Evernight' server. I was perusing the server forum this morning and came across the 'Tog' listing, and here I am.

Hope to share future gaming experiences with some of you guys in the near future

Space.
