what would you tell yourself when you first started?

[Hawthorne Wipes]

Stop grinding nagas. Quests give you more exp.

[Ryzael]

Play a Warrior, never reroll.

I wasted so so so so so so so so so much time starting over and trying to find something fun. Warrior was the most fun class for me. Wish I'd spent more time playing that and making 1 truly great character.

[Issalice]

I would tell myself to not talk to a specific few people I'd met back then.

This!!! lol And start as Pally not hunter, stop clicking and don't waste money on pets for alts as eventually they will become account wide.

[De Lupe]

None of that changes the fact "selling Blizzard stocks into WotLK" would be a dumb thing to do, and that was his point...

Then call it what it was (a bad financial decision) instead of twisting it into something completely unrelated (game bashing.)

Back on topic: I'd tell myself to take a picture of Camp T. I miss my hunting camp.

"Yo! Don't equip that BoE Defias gear! Hold onto it and farm some more later, you'll thank me some day!"

Yep. All the items i had on characters i destroyed years ago and can't even restore anymore. All those wotlk pre-launch event armors i did not spare or did not have classes to even acquire. Shit.

Also, if i would have run just few more BG's back in classic, i could wear knight-lieutenant's armor transmog on my warrior now. Etc.

[Aberration]

Start with a shaman. I dabbled in multiple classes as my main until around icecrown patch when I made a shaman and fell in love. Wish he was my main since day 1

Hmmm, that sig. You sure you haven't done that already?

Oh my gooo~d *head kersplode*

To not be lazy and play what you enjoy playing.
I put off playing a mage until Cataclysm because I was too lazy/had too little time to level one. I wish I had gone with mage from the start.

[ShasVa]

I'd tell myself one of two things:

1) Don't start playing until August 19th 2016, when Demon Hunters are a playable class.
2) Don't play WoW and you'll save money for other, perhaps more important things.

[SteveRocks]

I would go back in time to warn myself that in about 12 years some dude with a red dragon avatar is going to create a very pointless thread and to avoid that thread at all costs.

Good news: you won't need to buy any other new games for the next decade

Activision-Blizzard is worth a lot more now than they were during WotLK. Like fucking crazy way more. You can't only invest in WoW.

2/10 effort to bash anything WoW since Wrath.

Yep, although WoW is dying a slow death, the new games they put out are doing really, really well. None of them are my bag of tea, but they are quite popular and profitable.

[Lochton]

What would you tell yourself if you could go back in time to when you first started playing wow?

For me, this would mean going back to November 2007. I would have told myself to either start as a resto shaman or a feral druid. Perhaps both. Instead I actually started as a hunter and I think that really held me back for a while. Once I discovered shaman though and later druids, there was no holding me back.

Well, first started in WoW is on US Classic Release - SAVE ALL THE DAMN ITEMS!
Second started in WoW, is on EU The Burning Crusade Release - STOP DELETING YOUR CHARACTERS JUST TO MAKE NEW ONES!!!!1!!!!!11!!!!!! *bloodlust*

[Sliske]

Nothing. Its soul crushing watching a veteran player 'direct' a new player into how spamming dungeons is the best way to level, or this is how you spec, no not that fun way, THIS way.

[Thelxi]

Uninstall immediately.

Me - What are you doing?
Me- Killing this boars till lv 60
Me- You idiot.

Considering it has only gotten better since.
