Mission Statement

Hey all. I have been playing World of Warcraft since about 4 months after it first launched. I currently have one level 65 Orc Rogue on a PVP server, a 42 Night Elf Druid on a PVE server, and a level 12 Dranei Priest on a RP server. Actually, I have many more toons than that, but those are the ones I enjoy the most currently.

After years of playing, I have yet to have a character reach max level, and I seem to all too often be right above the poverty line after training every other level. My rogue is pretty close to level 66, but I find I have just lost my forward momentum with him. After doing some searching online, I keep seeing a few guides that are constantly being pimped as the next coming of the messiah. I have often been tempted to buy one here or there, but can't seem to find anyone who has used one and really given any real commentary to their usefulness.

I know I can't be the only WOW enthusiast out there who hasn't wondered about them, so I am going to bite the bullet and purchase one and try it out. And I am going to blog my experiences with said guides. I will not be posting the actual tips from these guides, as I don't want to be sued or anything like that. But, if I come across one that is particularly useful (or even downright horrible,) I will post my honest thoughts about them. I hope to become a resource for other World of Warcraft enthusiasts finding themselves in the predicament that I am in now.

Since I have a sever case of altoholism, I am at my max limit for characters on my account. So I am opting to start of with a gold making guide. Yes, I could buy gold from a gold farmer, but something about that just feels slimy. I would rather pay someone for tips on how to make the money in-game myself legally. There are more than a few of these guides out there, so I am going to just pick one that seems like a decent deal. Not going by price, but presentation.

I plan on posting every couple of days, but I do have a life outside of WOW, so if I go a little longer, please bear with me.

Now, I am going shopping for guides. I will let you know what I find.
