(This e-mail was written to my first message received - responding to one sent from me - here at Gamespot. Who knew that joining a website, simply to add ONE comment to a forum posting, could bring so much to the table?)

Hi there ******(I still am completely enthralled with your name, seeing as how my main toon is from Grand Hamlet or Darkshire I SHOULD say. She is also into the reading about the lore of the area as well. The Ivory Spire of Karazhan, Medivh, the fabulous shaped plot of land he decided to build his castle on, the whole caboodle. Yes, even his faithful help who stood by ole' Medivh. . *clears her throat* "ahem. . ******!".),

It's me again. As I am sure you can very well gather yourself. Anyhoo, I am pretty stoked I got a reply so quickly! Goes to show you what sort of PARTY ANIMAL you are dealing with here, huh? Some chick who checks her messages for a video game forum website? I will refrain from making some sort of comment about how someone, somewhere is thinking of me and holding their hand to their forehead, in the shape of an L (or not).

Listen, you said something about NOT being able to mention WoW in RL. Why so? Wait, wait, let me guess, ok?

1) Your friends and immediate family believe you have a little "problem" with the game. A mere lack of the ability in defining game speak and social drama that may occur in Azeroth, with that in RL, here on Earth? Huh?. . . or maybe. . .

2) Your spouse or BF/GF is sick and tiredof hearing about the game, RP, gen chat comments, your guild developments, toon leveling, recent achievements or new companions earned and want to spend more quality time with you?. . . Yeah? Am I even gettin' warm here? Hmmm?

3) No one at your work NOR your home know WTF you are talking about 79% of the time?

Any of those sound familiar? Sheit, I mean, there was a time when I heard the train pass at work, from my office, I would close my eyes and just SWEAR that I was at the auction house in Stormwind. Heh heh heh Well, I haven't played in a few weeks myself. I feel the want to log on but for whatever reason I find myself easily distracted by other websites involving either lots of reading or plenty of video content. Youtube is a biggie of course. It never ceases to amaze me how many different things one can find there. Anything from homeless schizophrenic people rambling aimlessly in line at fast food restaurants, old school cartoons that have been seamlessly converted to erotictypes of hentai flics, stunning International shadow puppetry competitions, to local bands and skater boys all trying to "make it big". Whatever the reason, I have yet to log on again. I want to. I MISS all the silly RP and my few friends. Just haven't.

I simply wanted to write ya back and see what else you might have to say. I am really excited. This is not only the FIRST forum at ALL I have joined but you Sir, are the very first responder to my meaningless gripes in the virtual world, my friend. I sure hope I haven't scared you off - yet. LOL

Hope to hear from you soon. Until then. . .

Take care, be good and NEVER buy shrimp from the side of the road, EVER.period
