Millennial Players, Come say Hello!

If there’s a Gen X, Baby Boomers, and Gen Z thread… we may as well have a Millennial thread…

Being in that generation at the ripe age of 33 I don’t feel I belong there but thankful I grew up with the 90s lifestyle and didn’t eat any tide pods :slight_smile:

I’ve been playing WoW since 2007 and my first guild 25 man raiding experience was Naxx. I have always played a huntard and even though under geared out DPS’d my fellow guild mates who also had gear from the 10 man they would run without me and some other cool kids. Ultimately leading to the down fall of the guild thanks to master loot and all that jazz.

I picked up the WoW books recently and finished the first one Cycle of Hatred. Now I’m reading Rise of the Horde and I backtracked by getting Warcraft Archive as I didn’t truly understand the order of the books. I played reign of chaos and frozen throne but not sure I remember much besides the covers of the boxes and the sayings the orcs would say when you put them to work.

Are we going to be blamed for killing the “Generation -blank- post here” industry now?

What about the weird microgeneration some say I belong to that is in the strange land between Gen X and Millennials?

You probably still belong here and the gen-x one. Depending on the generation graph. They are all different.

That’s the word, I couldn’t remember. Lived through the transition to iPhones but still remember calling collect as a teenager :wink:

It’s not a science I suppose, but there are some that find those born in the very late 70s and early 80s to be in their own weird kind of limbo.

1987, checking in.

Unsure if Millennial or Gen X, too many different groups define it differently.

33 here too. Are you 87 or 88?

I laughed at the tide pod mention. ( Tide PODS 4 in 1 Ultra Oxi Liquid are amazing. Thank me later). For Laundry, not ur mouth freakz.

Weren’t the 90s awesome? or maybe growing up with the innocent mind of a child makes any era good?!

I too have out performed ppl with higher ils than me (say around 10 or more?) pve/pvp but, good Odin, go into pvp at 197 and meet someone at 220+ and it is no longer
about skillz. Just bend over to a couple globals. #Feelsbadman

I feel like most ppl our age are still doing higher content but I am totally over it. Its so nice being a full time casual. I also have joint pain… I blame too many years of gaming, idk.

I couldn’t get into shadow’s rising book. First WoW book I’ve purchased that didn’t keep my interest. Kinda like the x pac. heh.

cheers~

we didn’t eat tide pods but we did eat those little rows of candy dots that always stuck to the paper when you tried to peel them off so you’d get half sugar and half paper

Pretty sure that was a con to try and get kids to eat more fiber in their diet.

That reminds me, are Dipping Dots still a thing?

They were supposed to be the ice cream of the future, but here we are in the future and I don’t have any dots.

I have seen advertising for a store that sells something like them around where I live… at least sometime in the past 5 years. Wasn’t called Dipping Dots, though.
