What was your favorite dungeon?

UBRS. The Beast fight was my favorite in game

I only pvp for mogs. I hate it otherwise

Did you ever skip work to take part in a special event?

(Age related question p1)
Did you ever let your child or spouse play your account?
(p2)

No… she had her own. She’s not with me anymore though, and it’s DEFINITELY for the best.

Were you ever allowed to touch your dad/mom’s characters?

My dad still quests and dungeons with me. I just convinced him to start a tauren shaman and play with me horde side. He’s the one who got me to start playing in the first place. So yes, I’m allowed to use his characters if i ever need to like add an alt to a guild or something. We’re not hardcore like we were from Vanilla to Wrath.

EDIT

I answered these questions like it was a vanilla only survey. Some of my answers would change if I redid it, but i’m too lazy to go back and change them.

1: I was 9 years old when I started

2: My first class was a Hunter

3: Tauren, which was my first character (who was the Hunter)

4: First major accomplishment, getting Rhok’delar & Lokh’delar on my Hunter while around age 10 at that point.

5: I had a love/hate relationship with Scholomance, I ran that dungeon so many times to get the Ancient Bone Bow (which never dropped)

6: I loved sitting in old school Orgrimmar, I had a spot that I sat/mounted in all the time that I wasn’t doing anything else in the game, if people wanted to know where I was at they usually checked there first.

7: I enjoyed PvE more than PvP, although I dabbled a bit in PvP during Vanilla and hit Stone Guard.

8: Didn’t skip work per se, but I did pretend to be sick a couple of times so I could stay home from school and play some WoW :stuck_out_tongue:

Age: 32
Class: Warlock
Race: Night elf
Accomplishment: H Lich King. Our guild used to have races between our 10m groups and our team downed him first. Other team never downed him. Actually we were stuck on Blood Queen on 25m when we all raided together for a long time.
Dungeon: Heroic Shadow Labs. It was difficult and hard to heal at times but I really liked it especially the ogre boss. Murmur was always a challenge.
Zone: Pre-Cata Hillsbrad horde-side. Between the quests and watching all the pvp, it was a fun place.
PVE only
Events: never skipped work

Last two are N/A. No kids and parents are passed away. Plus doesn’t apply anyway.

Not a particular event but when I started I blew off work at my part time job to play sometimes.

Last 2 questions don’t apply.

19

(1) I was 39 when I started in late 2006.
(2) My very first class was Warrior. Soon after that I started this guy.
(3) Probably Human, but Goblins and Worgen have the best starting zones.
(4) First major accomplishment … probably the Argent Champion title? No, it was earning my Charger. That was a paddlin’ back in the day.
(5) Gnomeregan was a glorious mess. Many memorable wipes.
(6) I really liked old Nagrand, reminded me a lot of the prairie hereabouts.
(7) Went back and forth … BGs were my end-game at one point right up until they weren’t.
(8) Nope. TCB, then goof around on WoW.
(9) Daughter had her own account until she lost interest. Every so often when she’s over and I’m not around she’ll derp around with my highest-level character for kicks.
(10) Both parents had passed before WoW was a thing, so no.
