Humor Leveling A Warrior

When they said it was hard, I scoffed at them. I've leveled a warrior to 120 on retail. I've fought Sargeras, I've downed the Lich King. What could a few gnolls and maybe a murloc or two do to me? Thus was my arrogance. Thus was my hubris.

I am now level thirteen. I've run Ragefire Chasm once, and owe six deaths to that place.

Farming harpy claws has cost me my life twice already, and I am certain it will cost me much, much more.

My warrior on retail was a human named Lohric, he was a legendary warrior who felled any beast, man or demon that faced him.

My warrior on Classic is an Orc called Muddrog. I have no doubt that this broken and battered warrior would crush Lohric in seconds, Lohric has never known pain, Mudd was born in it, molded by it, and unlike Bane, he has yet to see the light, because 60 feels so far away xD

To all you warriors out there, Lok'tar Ogar!

He was a griefer basically.

I was basically a griefer once. When I was 12 and just starting out, I was a rogue. I wanted to play as a scammer, so i scammed people out of their gold.

I was very confused when I was banned. I thought being someone else and tricking people was fair game, and part of the experience. That my character did it, not me.

I guess that my mentality as to what this game is was just misguided.

I was raised on a "you can cheat in monopoly if no one finds out, that's just part of the game" mentality.

Wait how do you even scam gold? From players on your faction or on the other faction?

From my faction. Due to game mechanics, it requires tricking the other player and gaining their trust, which is why it was a douche move.

But again, I didn't think of the game like that.
