Let's Do It!

I went to horde for five days-- then back to Alliance.

My reason; I had too much crap I did on Alliance to transfer over and have to re-do.

So what am I thinking now?

Delete five years worth of toons and just start fresh.. on another realm.. Horde!

I'm thinking a Male Belf Protection/Holy Paladin?

Anyone gone to such drastic measures? Ever have that moment where you think "It's time to start over!"?

I'm a roleplayer ... and playing my role as a dwarf, undead or whatever means I lead the life of one ... and you cant "rewind" life

Even if you delete a toon (which I'd never do since all the memories and time we spent together) (s)he will be with you. You've learned with him, laughed with him and died with him ...

Creating a new toon of another faction is not a startover. You'll continue with what you are now even if your toon starts with nothing in his hands

Touche!

=)

There is a lot of memories and time invested in those six toons.

I thought about maybe going to another realm and rolling a holy Paladin.

It's just too damn expensive to move toons around; I spent $300 going to horde and back in the past week.

That's where the "Hey, let's just start over!".

I recently just did that.

I grabbed one toon, loaded him with mats/items/boas anything i could fit in bangs and bank and moved to another server.

leveling is so quick paying money to keep me from leveling another toon seems wasting fun :P

I just recently started some Horde toons on a new server - this is the 3rd or 4th time I've done it, honestly. I've got my Alliance toons - one of which is from late BC, one from early Wrath, and one from around the time that ToC came out (who was originally Horde but transferred/swapped to Alliance around lvl 75).

I'm really starting to be against deleting and starting over.

The more I think about it; the more I realize that I have WAY too much invested in my current toons.

Maybe I am really Alliance. I think I relate more to it than Horde. =\

Bah. Delete? Screw that.

WoW allows a player to have up to 50 characters. So you've got 6 toons you don't want to delete? That's fine.

Just roll on a different server.

I've got 10 characters on Thunderhorn, 2 on Garrosh, and I believe 1 on Aerie Peak - and probably more that I'm forgetting.

And still you were thinking about deleting those toons? I mean doesn't money mean anything to you? Is it growing on tress lately? Can I have one of those?

Anyway, like I said in the other thread ... just try some other content or reroll. Transferring over and back or over here and over there won't change ****. Besides, rolling the same class with the same roles is kinda awkward, isn't it? Considering that you seem to want oh soooo much of a change.

No offense, but to me it looks like you're bored with the game and instead of finding other things to do with your time you decide to come here and complain, while simultaneously bragging about your never-ending money supply.

It ain't rocket surgery, just take a break, go on a vacation, go do some shopping, air your brains a little, and if that still didn't do it, play some other game. No one's forcing you to delete your toons and your account will be frozen for an indefinite amount of time. Honestly, I just can't see what you're so complaining about.

Yep, I joined this site in 2009 to be a troll.

I thought Gnomes were intelligent, apparently height isn't the only thing affected.

Why delete if you could start fresh on a new server. Always keep a door open.

You don't have to leave your current toons behind.

Pick another server, make a bank alt there and park them near an AH, then make a toon to level. Level your alt when you're bored. If you're enjoying it, spend time on it, and if you're not, leave it for a while and come back to it later.

Don't bother paying to transfer a toon. Other than riding/flying and learning abilities, what do you have to spend gold on while leveling?

And you will make gold. The BoEs you get while leveling will sell on the AH (for enchanters to DE) and cloth sells pretty well (cause tailors want it).
