    Default Hello from a Newbie

    I just started the free trial yesterday, so thought I'd pop in here and say hello.

    My only gaming experience has been AC2 and WoW. I've been thinking of cancelling WoW (or at least taking an extended break from it) since I've become bored with it and am not interested in having to spend my time raiding and their crafting system isn't the most exciting.

    I wasn't sure what to expect with Horizons because I haven't talked to many who had played it and hadn't heard the best reviews, but I have to say that so far I'm really enjoying it. I spent most of my first day trying out some of the different crafting schools and had fun creating a dragon that I plan on adventuring with some more. The people I've met in game seem friendly (a nice change from the "noob calling" I've been used to in general chat of other games).

    I'll probably have lots of questions and since I don't know anyone who plays, I'm sure you'll see me posting them here. I've already found some very helpful posts and am impressed with how friendly the community seems.

    Welcome to Istaria. Which shard are you playing on?

    You'll likely not find anyone so snobbish as to call you a noob. In fact, most of the times I even hear that being bantered about, someone is usually saying it about themselves. Those of us who have been through the entire process know that there is a LOT to be learned and discovered, more than anyone can expect a person to pick up in the first 20 minutes of playing. Each class has it's own high points and low points. Dragons offer quite a different experience than bipeds. To each their own.

    Thanks for the welcome.

    I've only been playing for a few days on Chaos but am already hooked. I cancelled my WoW account for the time being and plan on adventuring in this new world for a while. It's really been a fun change of pace and I'm having a lot of fun learning how to play.

    Alindris, I think you'll find the most kind, helpful and generous player base you've ever found in an MMORPG here. I know I did.
    Before you criticize anyone, walk a mile in his shoes. Then, when you criticize him, you'll be a mile away. And you'll have his shoes.

    Welcome, I also migrated from WoW most recently from the RP server Feathermoon. Came here because they actually have RP, and more interesting gameplay.

    I don't know about Chaos, but I know there are no "Chuck Norris can ... " discussions on Order. Those drove me right out of WOW my second go-round.

    Oh man... those "CN" discussions were the worst! And they were on every server -- there was no escape, lol.

    You probably only think that because you're jealous of Chuck Norris :P

    Can Chuck Norris really divide by zero?
