Hey everyone,

it's summer and like most people in North America, I'm currently taking some vacations. This year we're lucky, the weather is giving us plenty of sun and that's why I decided... to lock myself in a room playing World Of Warcraft .

I bought this game 10- days ago, out of curiosity (the last online RPG I tried didn't convince me) and since then, I barely did anything than playing. This game is a total disease, Fraisie tried it and now she's hooked up too! as a result, my vacations are going very well but I hardly know what's going on in the community (appart from the fact that the last beta was leaked. A word of advice, don't use it, it will crash your Messenger).

I hope I'll soon be able to resume work on Messenger Plus! 3.60 but until then, anyone of you interested in giving WoW a try is welcomed to join me in the Moonrunner realm ("Patchou" is currently a level 31 Paladin).

Hope to see you there!
Patchou

I know! I'd like that game too... but I think online fees are bogus.... I mean... pay for the game... then pay for playing the game... Thats crap.

wow lol i'll spread that even though it maybe a lie. It should get some non beta testers off i think it's a bad time to ask if i can become one lol

Well, actually, it makes a lot of sense after a hile... when you buy the game you get 30 days included. There's a lot of services that need to be paid monthly, it helps the game to evolve and mature, you get support, improvements, and tons of other stuff you wouldn't get if it was pay-once, play for life (they would simply release upgrade packages to compensate every 6 months, that wouldn't be better and would cost a lot too).

That being said, paying for online gaming also has a very important advantage: you remove a lot, and I mean a LOT of people from the game who had nothing to do there in the first place. Other online games have tried different approaches in the past but everytime you get free unlimited access, servers are flooded with people who just annoy the hell out of everyone and destroy the gaming experience. If you require pay for access, then most of those people go somewhere else.

I hope I'll see some of you soon .

i hope you find out the leaker see you
