I think my most valuable mount is the one you get for going to blizzcon, but I shouldn’t have bound it to account and held onto the card for it. They sell in thousands $$ now due to scarcity [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I only care inasmuch as I don’t like it when people claim something they can’t prove tbh. I’m big on honesty/integrity, I’ll always back up my claims with proof whether it’s WoW or RL
Wasn't as excited as you'd think. It was great to get but I didn't know how rare it was at the time, and I used flying mounts anyway. I was much more excited for the Time-Lost Proto-Drake.

Luckily now I don't care about videogame pixels anymore, to that extent anyway. They're meaningless, and those two mounts are my case-in-point.

Was the time lost proto drake as rare or something? I think I had quit before then

Yea, same. I don’t play any video games currently, P99 was my last

WoW was a fun time for me online but kind of a dark time IRL. I was sacrificing real life socialization for in-game notoriety, and also gaining tons of weight, especially during the r14 grind

For me I was able to transfer the video game addiction to fitness, and former gamers actually seem to do pretty well in that area due to their competitive nature and willingness to research strats and micro-manage many different RL health variables like they did with their characters

Time Lost Proto Drake to this day is still a rare and hard mount to get. People on Low pop servers might be more lucky. But theres always people ready to pop in the second it seems its about to spawn.

Was a dark time for me too, but depression mostly in my case. Was not easy to break out of that cycle of being depressed - playing games to allievate it and escape reality - becoming more depressed - playing games for longer to alleviate it. Was like drugs in a way.

Don't know what made me snap out of it but I literally did just that. One morning I woke up and decided out of nowhere to go finish my degree, I socialized and made friends again, and a few years later a successful career, a Cadillac, loving girlfriend, and games are now just a fun hobby in my spare time.

I even looked back on my post history here on these forums and was alarmed and ashamed at what I saw lol. That's not me, that's the old me. He's long gone.

And who even cares now? I haven't played WoW for like 13 years or whenever that Cataclysm expansion was released.

It was the Time-Lost Proto-Drake that took some time, and again why did I even bother lol. Why did I think stuff like that mattered?
Cataclysm was alright overall, they tried too hard at the start of the expansion making CC a necessary thing again and it just didnt work like it did with TBC. Pandaria, despite introducing the playable Pandas was a fantastic expansion all the way around, great pve and raids and the pvp was very balanced and some of the funnest I had since early Wrath. Plus it had Timeless Isle which on a pvp server was LOADS of fucking fun.

I started WoW at the beginning of WotLK. I only played the game for a year or two. It was fun but never quite scratched that itch like Everquest and Dark Age of Camelot did. I didn't like how Cataclysm changed the world and by then I was growing bored with the game anyway.

From there I moved on to Rift, stuck with that for a while, then on to Elder Scrolls Online and eventually uninstalled that too. Both those games IMO became bloated with DLC and expansions and began to focus too much on cash shop.

Classic Everquest is the only MMORPG that keeps me coming back, even if it's years between that itch. I've played a classic DAOC emulated server too but at the time it was still incomplete and nowhere near as popular as P99. I should fire that up too and see if they ever completed the Bonedancer class.

I got one final offer for Teako. If he either posts here or PM’s me either a Venmo, a PayPal, cashapp name, or whatever handle…as soon as I can I will send him $16 for the one month sub to log on his blizz account

I will do it ahead of time. He’s going to bitch out either way because he knows he doesn’t have proof, but this way he can walk away with $16 of my money. Consider it a charity donation, for the entertainment he provided me in exposing him as a fraud

(The download takes 5 min, blizz servers are fast, can just delete the game after, it will let you log on even if not patched)

It’s a good deal Teako, I’d take it

“I don’t have the money to continue”

I want to keep going. And I will loan you the money. And I don’t even need any of it back
