TOG - The Older Gamers

Meesh · 12th January 2006, 04:20 PM

Hi all,

I am Meesh, and I turned 25 this year so I'm excited to be able to join The Older Gamers. I have read and understood both the AUP and the FAQ. It looks like everything is in order for those documents. Plus, members of Thorns of Gold and Thorns of Grey have reassured me that the process is legit and they haven't had any problems. = )

I just play World of Warcraft, and I tend to play a couple times a week, when I don't have too much work to do for graduate school. I tend to spend about a third of my time chatting, a third AHing or crafting, and just a third actually questing. I sometimes can quest for longer but I prefer to only do this with players who are fun and mature and nice. I tended to find many players would wear me out! I currently live in vancouver, BC, Canada. However, for the rest of my life I was in California. I have a wonderful boyfriend who should be joining up soon. = )

My gaming history reads a bit like hop-scotch. When I was a kid I played Atari, the original Nintendo, and games like Spy Hunter, Winter Games, and Agent USA on this IBM clone computer. I really enjoyed games like Oregon Trail, various medieval RPGs, Sim City, and Sim Ant in my youth. As for more recent games, I really only have played Warcraft II, Command and Conquer, and Unreal Tournament 2000 because friends of mine were into them. So I'm not too hip on the gaming lingo and barely know anything about the Warcraft Universe, but I'm not too troubled by that.

I often get feedback from players that I am patient, nice, and helpful. I have been working on my group leadership skills because I used to let players walk all over me. Believe it or not, WoW has helped me develop assertive communication skills! ; )

Character time!

Welcome to TOG, Meesh.

I've made you a member, so you should now have access to the private forums.

Check out the rest of the forums around TOG too, to see what people who don't play WoW (I know, shocking.) are up to.
