i'm playing a dwarf prot warrior and it is hilarious what i can solo

i leveled just pulling as many things as i could at once and i never died aside from going afk or fat fingering heroic leap after i jumped off a cliff

same except I am play Vengeance DH so if i fall off a cliff I just glide to safety (though as a warrior if you time a heroic leap before you hit the ground it should mitigate all your fall damage)

Hey Jake I play horde with my buddies on dragonblight but I'll make an alliance guy on sargeras and join your guild.

For sure, hit me up


Kumbamontu posted:

i have only done 3 or so dungeons so far and they've all been neat though i somehow accidentally skipped a boss in one of them

In that Thicket zone or whatever (third boss)? I skipped it the first time i tanked it then i DPSed it and that tank skipped it. Seems like a common thing

JakeP , making a guy on that server reminded me why I hate pvp servers.

The thing with Sargeras is it is like 99.99% alliance, so once you get to Legion content you won't see anymore horde, but in the older stuff that is Xrealm you will


I would just level in dungeons until at least MoP

However again people played the game without it for a very long time and it wasn't the end of the world; quite the contrary.

This point makes no sense. People used to travel without automobiles for a very long time and it wasn't the end of the world

people lived without internet for a very long time and it wasn't the end of the world

people lived without electricity for very long time and it wasn't the end of the world


Just because things used to be a certain way and people were fine with it doesn't mean that people would still be happy with it if those things went awy

spending 3 to 5 minutes of your life compiling a votecount really is like living squalid in your own filth and dying of dysentery, you're right, this is a very appropriate comparison, shame on me.

What if instead of votefinder everybody who ever played mafia was thrown in prison?

I think this is preferable in many ways.

Then one day in the future some dude will come up with a new way to play mafia that doesn't involve being in prison, and ecco can argue that "In my day everyone played mafia by being incarcerated and that worked so..."

Ah, well I would say the posters that were most fun to play mafia with played right around when I first started in 2012 or so. 2013 was okay and it has just kinda rolled downhill since. Golden Zucchini, Dhaes, winvirus, Ecco, Mills, fronz, Authorman, Auryn, yuming, Power of Pecota, Scientastic, KhyrosFinalCut, Deadbeat Dad, Barehanded Brother, wins2172 or whatever his numbers were, Ernie when he had his cool long name, Cordyceps, Brazen Apothecary...these were the people playing good mafia back in the day. People you could have long debates with, that didn't go ad hominem on the first possible opportunity, people who you had to actually convince. It was a different, better time. I don't play mafia today really because it grosses me out how low effort the game is these days. People don't post, people don't argue or even defend their votes or opinions, they just put them out there and shitpost all around them in lieu of content. It's gross.

not going to single them out but a lot of those players you posted were basically lovely lurkers who would fit right in with current mafia.

Well, that is how it is nowadays. It's different when making large cases is common and people are willing to address what you said without calling you a retard. It used to be less toxic, I feel. I won't pretend there weren't always people against effort, though! That was wv's MO.


Sure, wv + fronz + dbd + brazen all lurked but they made up for it with funny or good posts

dhaes and BHB too, but yeah I agree, and enjoyed all of them

Hey everyone! I know I haven't been around for a while, but I have some news that I want to share with you all. I am a dad now!



Maybe one day I will have time to get back into a mafia game or two, but I haven't been able to commit the time that I would need to be able to play a game to my standard of play. Still I was a part of this community for a long time, and felt compelled to tell you all (and everyone else I have ever met lol). Hope everyone else is doing well!
