decided 1 day in wrath to level a rogue from 1 to 80 just to get fan of knives dinged 80 pressed the button never played it since LOL at that point i relised i had to take a break from the game i had reached a entirly new level of sadness

[Deleted]

when i started playing back in vanilla, i reached level 50 something before realising that each skill tree had its own tab on the spell book. was only using beast mastery spells up till that point : /

Also i didnt really look at stats on gear, i would need / equip a piece of gear if the armor value was higher, even if i was switching to caster gear.

[The One Percent]

I seduce female players in the guilds I join and get them to send me explicit photo/video, or just record sex video chats over Skype. Then when I quit the guild and transfer servers I post them all on the guild's forums for a laugh.

back in the early days off wotlk i was flying on my red drake over the border from borean too dragonblight and there i got a DC, and after i got back from that dc i somehow had been teleported too the skies above middle felwood still on my fly mount tho so... how in gods name could this even happen i ask O_o?

[Eliot123]

As a healer I know all the tactics for a boss that I should know as a healer but I have absolutely no idea what at any specific fight tanks/dps should be doing. Thank God I never dps so my guildies won't find out.
Also, I didn't know till mid wotlk that gem/socket colours don't have to match.
I keyboard turn if I'm questing, while I use my mouse to turn during raids and pvp. Sometimes just cba to use mouse. :P
Lastly... I sometimes fake DC.

After playing WoW for 2 and a bit years, I just figured out that the spellbook was alphabetical, boy am I a derp >.>, also leveling a feral kitty all the way to about 72 (first ever toon) I figured those little red dots weren't aggro but combo points! :P

played since 06 or 07 and i just now found out that the spellbook is alphabetical.....

[MasterOfNone]

I don't know any encounters in the game. But before joining a raid i claim i do and have cleared it on my "Main" Whom does not exist. And when i die i blame lag or Exit out of WoW and come back say i got DC'd

this guy is the reason i dont raid, thats my wow secret

[Renowned]

I once skipped a raid because I wanted to watch a football game, and the reason I gave my guild was that an exam was rescheduled. I've also left raids early as the main-tank using some family rubbish as an excuse, when I was actually going to watch more footy. I've had to leave heroics (with friends) midway through because dinner was earlier than I expected (still living at home, cheaper), but was too embarrassed to admit it so I Alt+F4 and claim it was a bad DC.

Oh, and I used to get turned on by well executed CC in dungeons, before 4.2.

Oh, and my main at the end of TBC was a paladin, I deleted it and rerolled another paladin for WotLK, and again for Cata.

First off, I love this thread!

My secrets hmm...I never wanted to play WoW to begin with, I had played Final Fantasy XI religiously for about 3 years then met my new partner who did nothing but criticize it and made loads of comparisons to WoW and how much better it was.
To make him shush, I downloaded the trial...and hated it. I picked a night elf rogue and hated the surroundings, the combat and everything else in general. I went back to FFXI after that. My boyfriend realised Id played alliance first off and as a die hard Horde player, he convinced me to try again on Horde side.
I quit my ffxi subscription that night and have been playing WoW now since just before Christmas and I love it!

It took me about 2 months to realise that shift- click looting existed.

Ive always fancied rolling a tank as I played tank in FFXI, but the idea of it petrifies me as I see the shite that Tanks get in dungeons in WoW!

Thats all I can think of right now, nothing too scandalous there!

[Kuja]

Did you know about autolooting option? No need to shift click everytime!

[Coar]

I hit level 80 10 days into wrath

I thought paladins gave heroism until ToC

[Kerr0r]

I rolled a pally tank for my first character because a friend told me they were the most facerollable (this was in wrath).

[Deleted]

Servertrans + faction changed my DK for having a character with inscription including all available glyphs. Never play this character.

[azza]

I just have multiple toons on different servers, and pretend to be a different person on each one. Like if I left a guild, I would join on a different toon, not telling anyone who I was. I also share my computer with my friend, and he put an on and add-on that when I hover over anyone it tells me what rank they are in their guild. (Fresh meat, trial raider, alt, officer, commander, douche.... etc.) Interesting when you come across a total jerk in a pug and find out they are a rank like slave, or larva.

[Deleted]

I used a bot once, only for a short while to try. Luckely I stopped within a week or so just before a ban-wave hit.

[Nelfie]

I.. rolled a Gnome once..

[Blondiex]

I am a clicker, but i am doing fine.

[noteworthynerd]

me 2! although i only click cooldowns these days and spamable things eg sinister strike will always be under my '3' key for best spamage.

Same here, I use a hybrid system, where often-used moves like my tanking rotation, interrupts, and taunts are keybound whereas moves that are used less often like cool-downs, mounts, and resurrection are clicked.

[Deleted]

I've used Mousemachine to level up 4 chars to 85 in BG's AFK, and geared up 8 chars with it fully afk.
And i still do it. Ive been banned about 9 times for it, all bans for 3 hours

[Lialye]

i type 3 years /sit until i discover pushing x do the same
