In the beginning, I wasn’t sure if I was having more fun because it was an unexplored area of Warhammer or because I was gaming with them. As the hours progressed, I realized I just missed having that camaraderie with my friends and seeing new content together. Really, it’s not the game that matters to me, it’s the friends. Now if I could just get Daz to play.

I guess I lost interest in Warcraft a long time ago when my friends stopped logging into the game, and for some reason I hung in there. The people who are important to me are in contact with me outside of the game, so I really don’t need Warcraft to touch base with them. Might as well cancel the account if I’m not playing.

What will I do with the site?  I still plan to make sigs, so it will be around for that.  However, I’m not sure if I’ll change the look or not.  I’m having a wonderful time playing the Warhammer beta, but I’m not sure if I want to dedicate my sig site to another game.  For now, it’s going to stay as it is and will just be updated with sigs.

All I have to say is that I’m LOVING the Warhammer beta.  Not only do I love the game, I love the geek factor of completing surveys and finding bugs to report.  It all appeals to the retentive teacher in me.

Once again, I have to thank Ratshag for being so patient about this avatar. It took me forever because I was avoiding all things WoW. He’s such a good guy.

I think I’m disinterested in WoW because all the people with whom I enjoyed playing have either taken a hiatus or quit ouright.  I know the summer months are always slower for MMOs because everyone is outside taking advantage of the nice weather.  Come winter and WotLK, more people will be gaming in Azeroth.

However, it’s still disheartening to log on to see that everyone you know is no longer playing.  A large part of the reason I log on is to “see” my friends and loved ones.  Granted, I see Tenryuu and Chiryuko every weekend for our weekly breakfast.  I just miss seeing everyone else.  Parenthood, jobs, and new relationships have taken precedence in the lives of my WoW buddies.  Some have just burned out from WoW.  I can relate to that.

I’m still working on the nursery along with trying to get everything ready for the school year that starts in less than three weeks.  I’ll be doing sigs here and there, but the turn-around time won’t be as fast as it was in the beginning of the summer.  Hope everyone understands.

It’s taken me forever, but I finally finished the banner for Raided M. My original idea of making their title look like a movie rating didn’t lay out well, so I scraped it and used the borders and background they currently have on their site.
