My WoW guild get together
Last night, I had the pleasure of hanging out in person with my guildmates from World of Warcraft. I’m a total noob – a mere level 30 Druid – so it was fun to be able to spend time with other folks from the We (K)no(w) guild and look over Joi’s shoulder as he showed me Molten Core. I’m grateful that they included me, because I had nothing to add to the hardcore WoW conversation. Like a recovering addict, I feel conscious about tempering my WoW exposure, as I’ve lost spent years of my life on other games in the past (4 years to MUDs, 2 years to Quake/Quake2, 1.5 years to Asheron’s Call, 1 year to Planetside, .5 years to Kingdom of Loathing. Not to mention all the time spent on Knights of the Old Republic.) But as I listened to Michelle (Kazpah) & Don talk about gaming prices for Epics in the auction house, I couldn’t help but feel a twinge of longing… Hanging out with the guildies made me feel warm and fuzzy about being in such a great guild.
Eric Haller posted this photo of all of us gathered at Michelle’s house in Dolores Park. We’re all -really- laughing because of some funny audio that came up on Joi’s laptop just as the photo was being taken.
Btw, yes, I’m working on blinging up my blog. I know it’s ugly.
Hey hey, they have all been noobs at some point
.
Which brings us to the reason the guild was named so: we know.
But that still doesn’t explain why Joi’s head is three times bigger than rest of the guild. kek.
Hiii I’m a new We Knower, and your name has been showing up on my RL/Second Life radar. Eric Rice. Spin Martin. Saijo (elf druid!)
And hi Jeff and Don! Good grief, I know people here, what’s going on? Who are you? Hehe
