hi.. just installed and played WoW. I just want to know on what realm do you people usually create your character on? I created mine on Thaurissan and Frostmourne.. but why is it that it seems like that there is nobody around?? Where is everybody? hope i can find a server with many malaysian..

Jubei'thos

But i hope u won't mind waiting for 800 queues

?? you mean you have to wait for 800 queues before you enter the realm?? what about the latency? is it high?

sabilfikri, there is nobody around probably because you are at the starting area for newcomers. Most players do not hang around that part of town.

Another reason could be that you log in at a time when most people are not online, ie, weedays past 2am server time.

When you reach major cities like Orgrimmar or Stormwind/Ironforge

Pick Oceanic Realms, and if you are not toward PvP, suggest Nagrand. Its the fresher realm in Oceanic Realms, no queue at present, I believe.

WoW is not like a free MMO where everyone is noisy and chatty. Ppl in WoW are more demanding when it comes to common courtesy and how you treat other players.

If you're asking for help a lot in the general channel, you might not be so welcomed. Some ppl will help but most people do not bother because they do not want to help i.e. bz with their own quests and they don't want to share quest with others.

It's not too hard in the starting areas up to level 20. After that, it's slightly more difficult but not so much.

Just remember that this isn't like RO or those Free MMOs where it's normal to shout for help all the time. If you do that in WoW, you get told off very harshly and you might carry the n00b label until you're up to lvl70.

I'd suggest u do a bit of time reading on www.wowwiki.com and www.wowhead.com .

You probably won't get someone to help u quest but if u need to know where to look for a mob, usually someone will say something. And it gets more interesting once you start off your first dungeon run.

if you want good ppl to help you can find myremi XD LOL

hmm.. im currently only at lvl 10.. i guess i better level up quick so that i can join up u guys in the other cities.. and thanks myremi for the website help

Yeah, just don't look for Addict.

On the contrary though, I find people in WoW are MUCH more willing to help than people in RO. Probably main reason is there is no PEOPLE in RO, just bots and I don't think they are smart enough to help :b

push me too hard and i will post your handphone number on a gay-ad website.

He changed his handphone no already. Come I give u his new one to publish at a gay-ad webby

Jubei'thos is a good server, there are long queues sometimes during peak hours, afterwork hours, during dinner. but i dint it better than Barthilas.

I'm PVP oriented, so i like these servers. Frostmourne is too laggy.

come to nagrand, horde side...ally side....lots of malaysian and singaporean


I'm level 70 horde hunter at nagrand..but my guidies are from nz or aussie

Gorgonash has hell lot of Malaysians there. Most of my uni friends go Gorgonash.
Too bad they are alliance.

I pulak damn kesian stay in Zuljin. (Well, i introduced my friends to wow but they all flocked to alliance for some reason =.=")

I have an RO turn RL friend in gorgonnash, but I can't remember his guild name. It's in another language...something something domitus or something. Alliance.

Also know another guild called Kraken, also Malaysian guild, in Gorgonash horde.

Lots and lots and lotssssssssss of Malaysian/Singaporean at Thaurissan Horde, that I know!

one other thing about guilds. if you're new and currently leveling up, look for a friend "leveling" guild.

because the raiding guilds at lvl70 will probably not help you to level. they might help their guildies (who already have existing lvl70 toons that are their main characters) but they won't usually help with new players who are learning to level and learning about the game. can lead to a lot of frustrations when in a raiding guild.

Hi sabilfikri

First of all, welcome to the insanity that is WOW.

The other guys have given you some good advice so I'll just add a couple of things you may not be aware of that will help you enjoy your stay in Azeroth (and Beyond).

There are a couple of excellent websites, but I think the best collection of everything you wanted to know about WOW is at http://www.wowwiki.com

I suggest you start here: http://www.wowwiki.com/Newbie_Guide

This will help you along much better than random advice from strangers in general chat.

couple of don'ts

1. ask level 70 to run wc for you
2. money begging
3. spam the LFG channel
4. invite level 70 without asking what purposes
