Like most poeple that play this game I have a multitude of alts spread across different servers, all at different levels, all different classes and all different proffessions.
So before the Burning Crusade I thought I’d have a cull and delete a load. For no other reason than to save my sanity. I went about the annihilation with the precision of jack the ripper. Anyone below level 5, off with your head.
I delted all my twinks on an old server my mate used to once be on. But not before handing out over 100g to random passerbys. I tried to be fair. I started off asking them if they were new to the game, or if this was just an unwanted alt. If they seemed to be newish (I didn’t bother weeding out the good liers) to the game, I gave them 10g and a few presents.
Out went my only paladin, 20 levels worht of experiance in mob killing lost with the press of 6 letters. D E L E T E.
I kinda lost the plot a little when we logged onto my brothers account and deleted all our ‘joint’ characters except Haazgoth, my first ever character.
So now I am left with 5 characters, most of which are currently on Mazrigos, 1 is on a server that always seems to be up when mazrigos is down so at least I can play and the rest exist only to launder naff stuff through the auction house.
I sound like an addict.
So there is Haaz, the great warrior, and his merry little altish friends. Of these, Hoodoob is prehaps my favourite. There is also little Tarlok the paladin, and the unfortunately named zgbanker who now has no purpose.
So back to Hoodoob the hunter. He’s on full rested now, so I went up to ashenvale and hunted down the Laughing Sisters. Easy 350xp a kill, with no down time, and no use of pots. I’m hoping to make 30 with him by the time Haaz hits 70.
Hi, just browsing other WoW journals here on wordpress and I wanted to say I enjoyed reading your post. I too have been playing the game for a while and while I don’t have quite as many alts I could see where you were coming from…anyway, I like the site, have a nice day!
Thanks for the comment. Sometimes a good purge is required for your own sanity, whether its warcraft alts, junk in the attic, or dare I say it, the other half.
You feel all cozy inside.
Note to wife: IT WAS A JOKE
