TOG - The Older Gamers

Hello All,

First of all I have read the FAQ and the AUP. Honestly, these are great basic codes of conduct. I have been part of online communities that have not had this, and it takes almost no time for me to leave. Because I don't like the drama. Friends disagreeing, no problem, people being rude and the admins not caring, I am gone.

How is everyone doing? I go by Vidman, my first name is Clinton. I am a 30 year old, single, College teacher. I am from Oregon, born and raised, I live in Eastern Oregon now, and am looking forward to moving back to Central Oregon (like in 1-5 months). I love playing most all types of games. I am into Strategy games, and recently, as in the last 3 years, I have really gotten into MMORPGs. I also play FPSs, mostly to pass time when I am bored though. I can sometimes really get into them, but usually it takes about 3-6 weeks for me to get burned out on the multiplayer in FPSs.

For about 2 years I was all about Ultima Online, A friend of mine from High School is a Truck Driver, and He ended up with 4 accounts and wanted me to play them while he was out driving. I really got into it. The best part about it was the Community. There was a great, but small, group of people that were all in the guild, and we were all about being everywhere in that game. But it wasn't to last, after about 2 years, the guild fell appart, and I ditched that game. It was good, but without a good built in group, it got boring FAST.

I played City of Heros for about 6 months. I still like that game, but I have gotten bunt out on it. I needed a break, at least a few months. But I still needed my game fix, and I had been looking at WOW since it came out. So, I checked it out.

I am in the middle of upgrading my system with better ram. But WoW is running great without it.

I am really interested in joining up to get into the WOW Guild. I have charachters on Proudmoore. I may get back into CoH in about 4-6 months, but like I said, I am way burnt out on it right now.

So, here I am.
