I'm 34. I started RPGs in their "pen and paper" form with the original D&D when I was 8. I look forward to WoW as from the little bit I got to play of it, it's more fun than any MMORPG to date. I also started a guild for like-minded players who are looking for a casual yet mature play environment.

I'm 32 years old. Been playing FFXI for about a year. Can't really stand the grind there anymore. That's what is attracting me to WoW....having three kids and all. I played it during the stress test and had alot of fun. I am hoping for open beta soon since they posted the end of closed beta here: http://www.worldofwarcraft.com

i am 19 years old. in my second year of college. i have been playing RPG's sence FF7. started then and havent been able to stop. every RPG is good but i love MMO's because i like to interact with people while i play

16 here, and proud of it. Started playing as a console gamer for the Genesis, and went through many more untill I got Warcraft III, which hooked me on the world of computers. Ever scince, I've played many games, including SWG, FFXI and such. Always liked RPGs, from my console roots to Neverwinter Nights. WoW will be definitly my next game. Hey Kerik, your clan seems interesting. I'll check it out, if you don't mind.

Pretty nice distribution between the lower teens and mid-thirties. At least no one's posted something stupid like "OMG, you shouldn't be playing MMOs if you're over 20..." Ah well, I'm sure it'll come eventually.

And, 22 on the age thing.

im almost 21 my first rpg was diablo 1 and i loved it my first mmo was galaxies and i had a good time. but now that i've played stress test i can think of nothing else.

im starting a guild called California Knights (C.K.) for all those sunshine folks.

28 here. Been playing RPG's for...like since before I could read. I enjoy MMO's but still prefer the old school pen and paper ones more. First pen and paper was D&D and just about every other one after that. One of my favorite being Shadowrun.

@m @ 1337 n00b! Nah, I'm not one of those immature teenagers.... but I'm only 14 years old. Hope I'll see you guys on WoW!

19 ^_^;;
I actually started with NeoPets and ToonTown when I was really young, and then FFXI when it came out. Later, a friend of mine directed me here, and I fell in love. When the stress test ended, I went through pretty much every free MMORPG out there, and now I'm just biding my time with Civ3 until I can play with my baby again. ^_^

I am a 42 year old house wife who started out gaming with D&D paper back in high school. My first MMORPG was Ultima Online. I started that game in beta and hooked up with the guild who wrote the guide book on the game. I became addicted to computer games and have not stopped playing. I have an 11 year old son who plays as well and my husband and I met online in EQ.

LOL Ganj, I think you had it right the first time ^^.

27 here btw.

15 years young here, been playing games since i can remember, the first time was in our old can playing NES, not super nintendo, the regular one. Then just kept expanding from there. I play a lot of different types of games, i really enjoy Sport games. Never really liked RPGs or Shooters till i saw SWG being advertised (being the SW fan i am) so i bought it, played from week 2, loved the game, till i did everything, so i quit just before space was realeased. I have also beta tested L2 ( and bought it) guildwars, SWG: JTLS and the list goes on. in the past year or so my gaming world has expanded beyond belief and i find myself loving a lot of new style of gaming.

Anyhow i ramble on too much, Sounds like the New stress test is commming up soon, the worldofwarcraft.com site is down, so lets hope for the best.

Hope to see you all on WoW

30 here. I played D&D back when, never really got into RPG on systems. Dragon Warrior and Legend of Zelda series some, never finished. Started playing FFXI with the PS2 release. Enjoyed the crap out of it, but started to get to the point where my play-time didn't allow me to ever exp. although farming made me quite a bit of money, but nothing to spend it on.

Looking forward to WoW, will be my first PC game.

I think these boards are going to be great. The "kiddies", although around my age, will be bothering the offical WoW forums. Just by looking at these boards I can find a great deal of maturity, hopefully, it won't turn into the FFXI forum fiasco. I think Allakhazam has a great community here and I'm glad to be a part of it.
