Dear Warcraft Diary (Part Three)
Fortunately for my future self, I pre-ordered and successfully received a Collector’s Edition of Burning Crusade when it dropped in 2007. Interestingly enough I did this using Best Buy’s website! Note also that on their website you don’t deal with employees! Anyway, when the expansion was released, pretty much everybody was playing again. We started out in the Draenei starting area with a bunch of Blue Skinned Freaks. In my spare time I played a Blood Elf Warlock and quickly realized that Warlocks were great! Unfortunately for him, most everybody I knew was playing Alliance, so I made a Gnome Warlock, did the March of Tears from Dun Morogh to Menethil, and hopped a series of boats to meet up with the Draenei characters.
His name was Pewpewpew. We had some fun questing! We did the Dead Mines a couple times and Blackfathom Deeps. I played until level 27 and then something took me away from the game; I think it was a busy time at work. Looking back, yeah, that was just about the busiest I’ve been here that Spring. Anyway, Pew took a rest, and I eventually unsubscribed. 27 was the highest level I had reached at this point. All the characters I had played with stayed on until 70 after I dropped out.
