Right, how stupid of me - I know this, but I totally forgot she's NOT a hunter!
She's a warrior! LOL

Guildies, my computer died and I have had to order a new one It will not be here until next week. Just wanted everyone to know and that I'm missing getting to play WoW with my guild. I had so much fun in the Dead Mines and The Stockades. Cya soon I hope.

Ahhhhh, dead computer But new computer

We were a quiet guild this weekend--We'll be looking for you to join us and tell us all about your new rig

Thank you very friendly greeting. Well I have a big variety of classes. My favorite classes involve healing though, so Shaman and Priest.

A Gameboomers guild cool. I would probably start a new character. Now just to decide on what class..hmmmmm

Hi Debra! So sorry about your 'puter! Missed you this weekend! We didn't do any instances, so you didn't miss anything, but I missed you for sure!
Hi Cody! Please do! We'd love to have you in the guild!
Speaking of missed, I didn't see Karen all weekend
Have a good day!
Andrea

Debra, new puter=fun. You will have to let me know how the game plays on windows 7. Be watching for your return.

Hi Cody! Would love for you to join the guild. If you know of anyone else playing, please tell them about the guild. We need more members.

Yeah, were is Karen? It has been awhile since I last seen her play.

L4L, your son gave me some great tips on how to play my warlock. Pipen is now level 46.

Linda

Linda, Game works fine on Win7. I upgraded to 7 before Christmas, and have had no problems at all.
Andrea

Hmm, reminds me - seems I don't have jewelcrafting as an option.
Why is that?
I thought we got it with Burning Crusade and I should have it, since we can't install Lich King without it installed, right?

Hi Missalo Just go to the Pet trainer & He gives you a
Taming rod and tells you to go use it on a certain
animal, when you find & use the taming rod on the animal,
hr gives you another animal to tame, you go tame
another animal you have to tame 3 animals.
and you have to bring all the animals each time back to the trainer B4 they turn on you so you have to hurry back
with them.
at least that's what you had to do when playing a Night Elf
or a Blood Elf I never got any letter either.
I only got a letter B4 I got my Mount But I couldn't make a Human Hunter
cause the Humans didn't have Hunters when I
created mine, how did you make yours??

Hi L4L, Andrea & Lindy, How r u guys doing?
I haven't played WoW in over 5 days, not been feeling
so hot. I sure miss it. I'll be back playing soon as
my leg infection settles down some. Have fun you all!!

God Bless~Karen


EDIT: Hi again Missalo, I have Jewelcrafting and I only
have WoW and The Burning Blade installed. so I think
you should have it?

Maybe I'm just looking the wrong place, but when I ask one of those guys in Stormwind, jewelcrafting is not there with the other professions.

MissLilo,
The only JC trainer, as far as I know is where the Draenei start in Exodar. That's where I trained my Dwarf Rogue miner in JC.
You get there from the dock at Auberdine in Darkshore, Kalimdor.
Hope that helps!
Karen, hope you feel better very soon!

Andrea

Missilo, good thing Andrea answered you....I was getting ready to say the only one is in Silvermoon...which is true if you are Horde

According to Mr. Google, the Ally trainer is in the Crystal Hall in the Exodar until you reach Grand Master, and then you'll need to go to Honor Hold in Hellfire

MissLilo,
There is only one JC trainer for ally toons and it is in The Exodar. JC is fun, but a real pain to level. Horde has only one as well it is in Silvermoon City.

Andrea, thanks for the info. I had been thinking about a new pc, since they have Win. 7 I didn't know how the game would run.

Karen, get well soon! Miss you.

Thanks for the sympathy and good wishes everyone! It's good to know I was missed.
The new computer won't be here until 1/26. It's got Win 7 and it's 64 bit. The Blizzard forums say it should work fine. Fingers are crossed.
I don't know if everyone is familiar with Alakhazam.com , but they have locations for every trainer every quest, coords, crafting information, etc. It's a good source or at least it has been for me.
Grats Pip on lvl 46 for your lock! Way to go!
See you soon. Have fun!

I can confirm, that WOW plays just fine on Win7 Pro 64-bit

As for your link (thanks a million btw), I think it's spelled with two L's - so it's Allakhazam.com


Regarding ADD-ONS:
How many of you have graphical interface add-ons installed?
I'm thinking of something like nUI / fuBar / kgPanels or X-Perl Unitframes etc.
If so, I'd like to hear what you use + additional add-ons.
Your favorites so to speak

I don't have the add-ons that you mentioned, but I do use these:

Auctioneer-Helps to sell items at the auction house.

Carbonite-Shows me where all my quests are located. There are many other add-ons that do the same thing as this one.

Bartender 4-Gives you more action bars for everything you need. I highy recommend this one.

Atlas and Atlas Loot-The first has all the maps for the dungeons. It also shows where the bosses are located. The only thing it doesn't do is show your location when you are in the dungeon. Wish it did. The second shows you all the loot that is dropped from the bosses and trash mobs. It gives you the chance to look at the loot you might want before going through and putting it on a wish list.

Ratings Buster-This compares items that you pick up to the ones that you have equipped. I think the last patch has put something like this in the game, but I still use it.

Good question.

I have Auctioneer, Tom Tom, Bartender, X-Perl, and Omen.

L4L, What does X-Perl and Omen do? Is Tom Tom like Cartographer?
I'd like to try Auctioneer. I subscribe to Curse for my Add-Ons, but only have Cartogtapher, Gatherer and QuestHelper.
Andrea

X-Perl does a lot of customizing to the User Interface as far as displays of things like spell timers and raid and buffs and things like that.

Omen is a threat meter so if Soot and I are both attacking, I see how much threat he is drawing and how much I am drawing. As he is the Tank in the group, he needs to draw all the threat so if one particular shot of mine generates a lot of threat, I can drop it from the rotation on that NPC.

Tom Tom is like Cartographer. I used to use Cartographer and liked it better as I could use notes with it, but with the latest big patch, my cartographer coordinates were very wonky. So, I'm waiting for them to update it and then I'll switch back.

Thanks, L4L! Appreciate the info. I think this will always be a learning process, and all he help we can give each other is very much appreciated!
I have a huge problem downloading add-ons that I can't get via Curse. I have no idea how to put them in the game folder or where to put them, or what parts of them to put in. This is an enormous frustration for me. Since I upgraded to Win7, it's gotten harder since the way the files and folders are displayed has completely changed over XP. I wish I could get someone on the phone to walk me through it, or at least give step by step instructions.

Andrea

I only have Quest Helper
Looks like I need to maybe add on a few more
which ones should I do that would really help a newbie
like me?? gonna try to play tonight, but I have an
old friend coming to visit at 5pm, so I don't know
if I'll have time or not? But I will be playing tomorrow
for sure!!
is the Guild got any plans this weekend??



Karen

A few addons I would suggest are:
Dominos (Action bars), Stuf (Unitframes), and Grid if you heal.

Thank you Cody! you are very helpful, How long
have you been playing WoW?? What Toons do you have??
I have a Human/Waslock, A Night Elf/Hunter and a
Dranenel/Shaman, I have more but don't play them too much.
My Night Elf/Hunter is my Highest level 25

Next question is where do you get the add ons?
do you just Goggle the name? or do you
get to them another way?? Can anyone please send me
links to them?? Thanks so much~Karen

You can always try Curse.com - that's where I get mine.
They have a downloadable client , which you then use to install/uninstall/update all the add-ons you have
