Being a hunter is fun because we can catch rare animals and show them off. A friend told me that Humar the Pridelord was around one day so I went off to tame him. He wasn’t hard at all, well I was also a level 40-somthing and he was only a 15. At the time I had a boar who leveled up with me since 14. I thought I would miss him. I even almost shed a tear when I put him in the stable but now he’s like a bunch of virtual dots floating away.

I named Humar Meow. He didn’t keep the name they gave him originally. He doesn’t seem to have any special abilities other than no one else has him where I am. He’s black with long pretty saber-like teeth and doesn’t even really seem to have a personality like my pig did. Sure, I love having him around but I think I’m going to stable him soon and get another one. Maybe I’ll find them all! I don’t want to do it with my Troll though because I want a sexy hunter to have all those pets and then wait for the day Blizzard let’s me have more than one and walk around like a sexy pet master. LOL I’m just kidding.

I might hang around and try to get Humar with my Blood Elf next since he is so low level and she’s just starting out. I’ll make a movie with I tame him as well as the others. I wonder how many pets they will let me stable? It looks like only 4 or 5. I hope it’s more or I will need to do this with a bunch of different hunters. That won’t be too terribly bad, just a pain to level up all of them. I want the Devilsaur.

Does anyone else have any elite pets?

One of the most overused words of today is noob. It used to be that a noob was someone who was new to a game and didn’t know the way around. Today that is a newbie. A noob is now someone who is new and refuses to understand the rules of the game when told or read the documentation to learn the rules. Not many people know this. In fact, when I told someone in the Barrens that Obama is too noob to be president they called me a racist. Huh? Hardly. I’d take anyone who was an experienced Libertarian no matter what color, gender, or religion thank you very much.

So when is it okay to call someone a noob? Actually, you can say whatever you want because we live in a free world and if Blizzard doesn’t like the word you say they’re going to censor it. Is it okay to cal someone a noob? Sure, but if you’re doing it in game and doing it because someone asks a question or does something dumb then you’ve lowered you IQ about 100 points. It’s a very insecure and childish word. It’s something my kids and I joke around about but never call people in the game because really only noobs call each other noobs because they really just sound like boobs (dumb people not the other kind. get your mind out of the gutter will ya?)

I’m sitting here waiting for the next version of WoW to pop up so I can play for a bit. These updates sometimes take so long and they can be very misleading. I remember one very large update I had to open a few ports and it didn’t even tell me until it sat there for an hour or two and then when I opened the port it took another hour to tell me the next port number. Needless to say, I was very frustrated especially since my connection isn’t slow at all.

I guess it’s a good thing the updates are regular. I’ve seen so many other games just fail because of security issues and lack of updates. Then again, I know of another place that doesn’t seem to test their updates before they’re done and it turns into a big mess. Kind of like a Microsoft product. haha

O M G it just gave me an error. I knew it had taken too short of a time for that update. Well, I’ll be updating for a bit. I’m glad I didn’t spend too much time on this so far.

I would love to show you my new Blood Elf named Lithellyn that I use to play with my son but she hasn’t hit Wow Armory yet I guess. Tonight she just hit level 10 as I finished off about 3 or 4 quests. Unfortunately, I kind of went out of order with her because I was helping my son with some of his quests and he doesn’t like to do them in order. I have yet to find my hunting staff. I gave her a level 1 Aspect of the Hawk for the talent point.

Since she is a hunter the obvious choice for professions are skinning and leatherworking. Right now she is only an 8 at leatherworking but that will increase soon. I also gave her First Aid and Fishing. Since I’ll have a pet I’ll need to keep both him and I fed so fishing might work out well.

I’m still notused to the Blood Elf land. I played a troll for so long that the area just became easy to navigate. The castles here are just a pain to remember which turn goes where.

I suppose I should stop my journey now because even though my son went on to level 14 with his Blood Elf he begged me to stop at 10. I think he likes the idea that his guy is a bit stronger than mine. I’ll just take it easy and try to finish off the quests I have and go train my pet I guess. I think I might take the movies created on my machine and put them on YouTube and let you see the progress. It isn’t too hard to do it seems. On my Mac I just hit the left bracket to start and stop the movie. This should be really cool. Then you can look and see what I dork I can be when I’m off fighting.

Check this movie out. It is my first attempt at creating one. It’s too small. Any Mac users want to give me a few clues here? I used the WoW interface to start and stop the movie then compress it and then I imported it into iMovie to put the caption of the website.

I was ordering The Burning Crusade for my son because that is what he wanted to spend his Christmas money from his grandfather on and I accidentally upgraded mine instead. So, now we both have accounts on The Burning Crusade. I guess that is fine because I was really looking for a Horde member that didn’t have such big oaf feet and wasn’t a strange inhuman color.

The only problems I have with these elves are the length of the ears and eyebrows and the choice of mount. It was hard enough getting on that raptor for the first time with my troll but now I look forward to getting this bird thing. I don’t even know what it is called yet, I just know that it is terribly strange looking and I hope that I can level up to a horse soon. Yes, I’m shallow. I like my avatar looking like a Malibu Barbie and having the finest in clothing and mounts. If only it could be more like Second Life where I can actually pick out my shoes and clothes. Oh and having my own home would be wonderful. One with a door lock where no alliance members can get in and bug me.

Is that hope for a WoW upgrade or am I asking too much? I’m tired of going into Second Life and seeing all the people doing things that you would never ever see in a night club. I mean, there are naked pictures everywhere because of the skins you can buy. Thank God you can’t do that in WoW–or can you? Yikes!

The Moms of WoW forums are up for you to post. There aren’t a lot of topics and groups yet because it is a new forum and I’m not quite sure what to put there yet. If I spend too much time branching things out it will get really hard to moderate so I want to keep it simple yet organized.

Things we will discuss in the forums include general chatter, help in the game, hints and tips, strategies, etc. If you’re tired of getting hit by a certain player on your server then by all means let others know so we can all join and hunt down the character. lol Chat about dungeons, set up raids at certain times, and talk about how to level up your character or get more gold.

The site is called Moms of WoW, but your family members are welcome to join. Gather your kids and spouse who play and have them setup accounts as well. Please only 1 account per person. I know, it’s kind of a drag, but what a hassle for you if you had to remember each and every post you did by each member. I will have a place where you can put your wow armory links. I would put it in your profile, but some people have so many characters that it will get really ugly.

What I will allow is if you play alliance and horde then you can have one account per side. You will need to have different emails accounts though. Sorry, board policy.

The rules of the board are pretty simple and are posted in the forum. Please follow them. Since we’re all adults I’m sure that we can take it seriously and still have fun. I will allow people to put down if others attack them so that members of the same server can get revenge

This site is for Moms who play World of Warcraft. I’ve been playing for awhile and have been playing Warcraft since the 1990’s. All my kids play World of Warcraft. In fact, my oldest has been playing longer than I have. It was only recently that I realized it was a game completely different than Battle.net because I spend so much time working.

Well, now I work from home and I can adjust my hours. I just take the hours that I would have spent getting ready and driving to work and convert them into gaming hours

Are you a mom who plays WoW? Then you will enjoy conversing in our forums. You can even get your own blog for your character with a subdomain of momsofwow.com. Just fill in the form and we’ll set you up with a blog already configured and ready to go. Participate in our forums and tell others about your victories. Alliance? Horde? It doesn’t matter. We might fight in the game, but here we all get along and have fun. In fact, maybe we an all start guilds with our characters. More of that later.

So stay tuned for more fun on the Moms of WoW site. Come back often and read the blog or chat with others. Tell your WoW friends and lets fill this place up with players.
