Say Hello!

[bob]

It's nice to have an idea where people are from and how they got into the guild, so if you can spare five minutes please make a post introducing yourself.

I'd like this to be a say hello thread with a difference though.... rather than just being an utter spam fest could you please make just one post briefly (or not so briefly if you have the time) outlining:

- Who you are
- Where you come from, in real life and indeed virtually
- Your various characters and a little bit about them
- Who introduced you to the guild if you are being vouched for

Rather than simply cut and paste the old thread into here I've decided to start a new one. Certainly my own life has changed a lot since I posted my original hello.

Thanks for posting!

[Tonio]

Hello,

I'm Tone (Prefer to be called Tonio! Eew at hard to pronounce names) from Norway, soon to be 18. I'm going at school (year 12), ICT is what I do, however only for a few more months. After this I'll either start working or continue with an extra year so I can go to uni. And as most people know I live with P (MisterP).

I've been playing wow since Christmas 2005, where my first 60 was a hunter. Later on, I then met several people from this guild, Lycien (Josh/Rieko/Sendara) and Bev/Tzi. After some conflict in the old guild because of how some got treated I then left and got invited by P.
Else than my hunter who's now 70, I got a priest (holy), warrior (tanky) and mage (fire) at 70. I also got a druid at 40, who just can't wait until she get into outlands.

Oooh, and I love green. It's my favorite color and I'm always wearing at least one bit of green kit.

[MisterP]

Hello there!

My rl name is Andrew (Andy) but I'm known to most as P or Mister P. Currently residing in Norway.

I was with the guild since day one, was one of the original founders of the guild, yet moved out to join Foad (originally formed pre tbc with Tonio). Some months later all the /w to rejoin came to an end when Geoff enticed us back into TSH as raid officers as they were a bit low.

First toon and still my main is Lornai, a lvl 70 Holy Priest. I also have a 70 Rogue (Combat Daggers), Warrior (Prot), Druid (Feral with resto kit) and Mage (Frost), a 64 Paladin, 62 hunter, 46 Warlock and 40 Shaman.

I've done my fair share of raiding since pre tbc and are a complete set whore ¬_¬

[Liam]

Right, I'm Liam.

I'm a 22 year old lad living in Nottingham, England. I've been with the guild since my Druid hit Level 30, meaning around 2 months post release. I've leveled various characters in it. My Main, Raels, is an Enhancement Shaman, the alts include Lothereon, a PvPHealyDruid, Izza the Gnome Mage of eventual levelness, Aimie my Twink Pally and a few others. Raels has left the guild to pursue a life of raiding but decided she liked it more here just mainly to talk to the people, it's just nice and friendly.

Guess thats all I have to say really, later.

[Markus]

Hello, I'm Markus or many people won't NOT call me, Asmo and I'm 21 from Scotland!

I started out on PCGF and after meeting a few people there I found out about TSH. Have been with the Guild since I started playing a couple of years back and despite a couple of misguided raiding separations, the powers that be kindly welcomed me back, I have returned teach time because I have a lot of friends in TSH who I've met over the time and well, I wouldn't be still playing if these people weren't around.

Newer people to the Guild will know me as Matsumoto, the perverse Mage filling up space on your ignore lists(Hi Pilo!), but the oldies (Hi Si!) i'll always be Asmodeus, as Tuon so appropriately put "The walking battle shout".

Currently at Uni doing Interactive Media Design and so one day hope to be designing the games you people will be hooked on in the future, you consumer whores!

[Pilo]

Hi I am Pilo, also known as Casper, but not to many people, since i prefer to go by my charname.

I have been playing since open beta. But was in another guild until i joined TSH and Dawn,- which is soo long ago that I don't remember it anymore.
I was introduced to TSH by my good old RL friend Bevier.

Hehe yes I have had Asmo on and off my ignorelists for the entire duration I have known him, and tbh that will probably go on.

Pilou (rogue) was my first char, and named by the random name-generator in EverQuest, and it has just stuck to me. But the frosty mage (Pilo) will always be my main, since its the char I enjoy playing the most, and know the best.

Apart from that I have the following alts : Piloo (holy priest), Pilok (prot warrior), Piloa (destuction lock), Piloy (feral druid), Pilov (64 - dps shammy), Pilob (64 - marks hunter), Piloe (42 - ret pally).

I play together with my fiancée called Katrine (Pixi), who is also known as Pixiline, Maxina, Maxine, Piix, Piixi, Pixil.

... and yes we play way too much. But I guess that goes for most of us. :p

Cheers

[Tuon]

Hello!
My name is David aka Tuon, im 21 years old living just outside Stockholm in the wonderfull country of Sweden.
I joinded the guild when i got back from a break i had from wow for a couple of months, think it was around the autum 2007 and been enjoying it ever since.
My chars are Isishi (pewpew mage) Tuonie (pvp priest) Sil (nubrogue) Tuon (old main paladin dust collector) and Pheay (39er healer).
Dont really remeber who got me intruduced to the guild, got to know of few of them when raiding with "Dawn" and when i got back from my break i got welcomed into the guild.

[Jodi]

Hai2u.

My name is Jodi and I'm a 24-year old guy currently living in Scotland although I'm originally from Dublin, Ireland. I'm in the process of moving from Aberdeen to Edinburgh at the moment to help me to stalk Mark better. I recently finished my Master's Degree in Modern Historical Studies and am now enjoying exploring the limited job prospects although I'm thinking of going on into journalism.

I started with TSH in open beta and my first live character was Aredhel, now in the hands of Scud. I played through til around September '05 when I quit, ostensibly to focus on uni work but I was dragged back a few months later and then spent the guts of the next year raiding with MCO while still in TSH. Some time around February '07 I left the guild over something I can't really remember the details of anymore and quit again a couple of months later. At the beginning of January I decided to come back and rerolled a Shaman who I am now gearing up. Will heal Heroics for badges!

I tend to play stupidly late at night and am a founder member of the now legendary Instances At Stupid Hours club which is being resurrected on the sly as we speak as a relentless badger grinding machine. When I'm not playing WoW I enjoy console games, reading, playing guitar, LOLcats, listening to ridiculously loud metal and boring people by talking about my Mac.

[Morf]

I'm Neil, 31 (though still younger than Si and Jim, thank god). I live in Shropshire, UK, work a few miles away in IT and then come home an spend too long on the computer in the evening, typically playing WoW. I was brought into the game in the last week of the open beta having been one of the ET regulars on PCGF and I've been here ever since. I'm behind almost all of the Mor* characters (except for Morenill), which cover one of every class. My first character was Morrath, dorf priest, but he was recently semi-retired and now I'm focusing on my feral drood Moralai instead.

Outside of the game I tend to read books, magazines, watch DVDs and complain about work, though all of that tends to takes a back seat to WoW - I've got a backlog of books and discs to get through and a pile of magazines which, at one mag a week, will take me about 8 months to clear...

[Jim]

Hi, I'm Jim

Been playing since day 2 of retail, currently on a break having decided that space-ship pew-pew is where my head is at at the mo. Loads of toons of all classes, mainly Warrior, Hunter and Warlock though.

Live in Nottingham, know Liam (for my sins) and am older than Neil (arf, always going to be Morf to me) and Simon. Have met far too many of you geeks for my liking and refuse to enter Scotchland for fear of running into Markus ¬_¬

Be back in Azeroth soon so no kicking me!

[Tran]

Oh hi! I'm Tran, also known as... Tran!

I'm an 18 year old student at the University of Ulster (Coleraine Campus) studying Computing with Digital Games Development. My main timesink is WoW which is going to be interesting with group projects at uni etc.

In game, you'll find me on Tinytran (Destruction Warlock), Teenytran (Arcane Mage), Drtran (disc priest), Totemtran (Elemental Shaman) and also Tweetytran (my balance druid who is in a guild with some RL friends, not TSH).

I signed up for the guild back before the closed beta had started, but I didn't actually get into the game itself until the last week or so of Open Beta. Since then though I've been playing as much as possible and have become quite the addict.

mmkaythxbai!

[Scud121]

Hi,

I'm Chris, although most people call me Scud. 33 Years old, and I currently live in Germany. Married with 2 kids, although the wifes moving back to the UK soon to get the youngest sorted for scholl. Been playing WoW since closed Beta. Mains are Murazor (Warlock), Aredhel (Druid) and Corax (Warrior). I'm a big fan of the number crunching as a result of playing too much Diablo II.....

[Twiggy]

Well I am Lena but you might know me as Twiggy.

I live in Frederiksværk, Denmark, with my two year old twins. I work at a microbiology lab, partly with my nose in the bacteria and partly as the local IT nerd.

My main is Twiggy. She is a holy specced priest who spends a insane amount of time hanging out in the AH in Stormwind... She really should get out more... I miss her shadowydays

Second is Yersinia the nelf hunter. She is beast-spec. atm. but I might change that some day...
Third is Amylia, Shaman - been so long, I can't even remember her spec!!!

Then I have a bunch of low lvls such as Lhinn the mage and Yalana the rouge... not sure they'll ever reach lvls beoynd 60

[Jupo]

Who are you?
Where do you come from?
My name is Mathias. I am 15 years old, and I'm living in the HUUUUGE country of Denmark. I'm in the last year of State School, and next year I am going further to "HTX" which in english would be: Higher Technical Examn. Which is a more math focused line.

Your various characters and a little bit about them.
Jupo. My lovely Warrior. My first character above 35 Very Happy I do remember, a few things, like: I dinged 40 on the 29. August, and at that day I missed 7g for mount. Pixi were so lovely, and would give me those gold. And then when I met up in SW, I did grab a birdy, and fly, without my money. And Pixi had to go - No money. A little farming is always nice? ^^

Well, after here, we have Jupoo. A little warlock I'm messing around on. Or, better known as the Shadow Mage. Because I kinda slack on the sta attribute:D
Well, what more is to say about this little pink haired mage of the shadows?

Now, Palenow. My one and only Drood. The Twink under them all ^^. I love messing around in BG's though I have problems killing someone. Kinda slacking on drood skills. Though I think I'm ok at this flag running thing? Very Happy

Now, I have tons of alts, and they are not likely worth to mention Smile
Oh, I have 1. And that's my rogue. Palenov (The inspiration for my droods name^^). There's a little stupid story 'bout this gnome. A cold december sunday, my parents did give me this gift. (I dont know what it is called in english, but those you gain the 4 sundays, up to christmas). Now I had been talking about it was a stupid idea, I made the rogue in Hellscream, because Shadowsong is my main server. Though, I had contact to my schoolmates on it, and that's why I kept it.
But, then when I was taking a shower, my dad decided to transfer this rogue to Shadowsong, and here it is. A little, miniature human, with 2 glowing weapons.

At last, my lovely bank char. Jupobank. This char have made me a little gold, here and there. Just by messing around, bidding, and by nice people who suddenly traded me Very Happy

Who introduced you to the guild?
Well, here I must say, that's Pixilo. I know Pilo through my dads company. A saturday I was out eating brunch with the company, and there were Pilo, and next to him, Pixi. We fell in talk, and I lvled my Warrior further. (He were 10 at that point).
One day Pilo asked me, if I needed a guild, because I were unguilded at that point. I answered, that ofc I wanted a guild. He sent me the adress to the website, and I wrote an application. 15-20 minutes later, I were in the guild.

And then you might know the rest of the story I guess. The little warrior who pretend to be a tank. And most of the times with sucess

(Yes yes, I'm lazy! Copied from old forum ;D)

[neoboy]

Hi the ladies call me Big V, I'm in my 20s and live in the North East. If you are up for some no strings attached...oh wait.

edit: Go on, finish it. You will get a positive response

[Ipslore]

Hey, I'm Tom.
I'm 18 and currently studying Computer Science with Maths at the University of Manchester, so depending on the time of year I'll either be living there or in North Somerset.
I was introduced to the guild through Neoboy. I'd played CS:S with him previously, we were even in the PCGF CS:S clan together for a while, but he'd quit to play wow. So when I ended up getting the game too in September '05 he dragged me over from the realm I'd been assigned to(Runetotem iirc, where I'd started leveling a warrior), onto Shadowsong and straight into the guild. He also convinced me to switch from warrior, so I created a mage, Ipslore, which has been in guild since level 1 and not left once.
My current level 70's are Ipslore (Fire mage) and Marek (Sword Rogue) and hopefully I should soon be able to add Blatchford (Prot warrior ¬_¬) to that list. I've also got a host of alts, 6 more in guild and 1 on the horde side, mostly levels 20 to 30. With the exception of Ipslore and Blatchford all my chars are named after obscure NPC's from Baldur's Gate, which I am slightly obsessive about, regularly playing through it or its sequel (Currently going through a solo "multiplayer" game of BG2...). Ipslore is named after a charcter from the Discworld book "Sourcery" and Blatchford is my real surname.
I haven't been playing as much in the last year, mostly because the pile of singleplayer games I hadn't got round to yet was growing so large that I though I better do something about it ¬_¬ But I should be around more in the coming year, especially with the release of WotLK.

[Zetten]

I'm Pete, 22 and living in Surrey.

I graduated uni with a Physics degree last year, and I've been bumming around since then, with just a part-time bar job to my name. I'm currently starting to search for full-time work in earnest, so I'll probably see a bit less of the server once I settle into a job and a house of my own. I reckon an entry level PHP developer position is probably the most promising direction, so if anyone knows someone who's hiring....

I remember all the game and guild-related chat from PCGF, back when the old crew played ET. I didn't start playing WoW till quite a while after release though, Dec '05 I think. I played for a few months then gradually got bored and drifted offline, but got brought back by a couple of mates at uni on a different server (playing a Belf mage on Ghostlands). A few months after that I was getting bored again, but Deetz grabbed me and I found my way back into TSH, where I've been for the past year or so.

My main is still the character I started way back at the beginning - Aquitanus. Hopefully he'll be kitted out as a decent switchable tank/dps character eventually, although at the moment he's just sort of average at both.

I started Einarlsson just before Christmas so I could play with my girlfriend who just got into the game, and he's slowly levelling up to 70 as well. At the moment he's Ret spec, but as the group questing and stuff gets more prominent I'm thinking about switching to Prot.

I've also got a couple of other low-level alts who aren't in the guild, and who don't get as much gametime as the other two.

I'm hoping to start raiding and instancing more, but gearing up to an acceptable level is still the biggest obstacle. Getting there slowly though.

[gilly]

Hello I'm Gilly/Simon.

I am 24 and live in a little village near hull with my misus of 5 or 6 years. I work as a Draughtsman at the same company as Si/Balloque, Steve/Kaveman and Bren/Bren.
It was Si that introduced me to the game at beta stage, I only got onto it in the last week of the beta, but made a Night Elf Hunter and was hooked from then. I joined the guild from release, and then left for a while early on, but then came back to Shadow Hunters and have been here since.

My levels 70 toon are Voldor the holy Paladin (my very first toon that i played to 60 before even looking at other toons),
since then i have added the the stable, with Wyldon (now a Shadow Priest), Clairabell (who i convinced the misus to start, she played until about level 40 then got bored so i took over and leveled to 70), Droodor (Oomkin Druid).
I also have Boldor (level 60 warrior that I'm fairly sure i will not touch again).
I am now leveling a hunter called Syler too, and his pet boar called Dirk.

Thats about if for me, see ya laters.

[brochade]

I'm Charles, 36 years old, and I live in Sweden. For a detailed location, http://tinyurl.com/fwa58 will link you to a google map. I'm sort of borderline british swedish, put probably more swedish. Mum's swedish, dad's english.
I share a small house in a village with my two cats Judit and Nixon.

Been playing since release, I got into TSH ages and ages ago. I was playing my main Brochade and got picked up for a few Strat raids (Yes, you could raid Strat at one point). Currently unguilded, I was asked if I wanted to join and I felt a certain chemistry during the runs and accepted. I have never been in another guild either before or after, TSH suits me perfectly.

During the day I work in IT, where I specialise in storage technology in the infrastructure field. This makes for a lot of travel and I'm usually away from home most of the work week.
Home, there's a lot of WoW but I also enjoy sci-fi, currently working my way through Stargate SG-1.

Toons are Brochade the MM hunter, my old main but I don't play him quite that much at the moment. Freshest 70 is my fire mage Brillix, who I enjoy playing the most right now. Got a prot warrior Boraxe, a resto druid Brixara and an affliction warlock named Brixie. Brixie's been out more than usually, and I'll try to keep her available for Illhoof. Mustn't forget Brinx the rogue, who's also gathering dust a bit. That might change soon.
Can't say I have a solid main currently, I tend to switch around a bit.

[Bones]

Thought i better join in!

Hai! Real names actually Adam, but i think only my family call me that. Everyone else calls me Bones, even the school teachers did! I'm 21 and live in sunny North Wales! At the moment im training to be a land Surveyor and if im not working or on WoW i'll probably be in the pub.

Got into the game through my RL friend Chris P (Inf) though vowing never to play it after watching him spending countless hours on the game. Think i started playing around August 2005, and joined the guild when i was level 1 on Barac

That be all

[Pete]

I'm Pete.

I'm 26 and live in the south east of England and I work in database management.

I was invited to the guild through Andil and I know him Robil and Scrot (before he was Andil) In RL, though since they left tsh and went to uni I havent spoken to them much. I have met Liam once through other geeky hobbies.

I satrted playing in September 2006 and my 1st char was a Druid called Peteil but I didn't really get on in the Darn' area so quickly rolled a hunter called lietep. He was my main up until just after TBC was released, I also played a priest called Edwil when my brother (lileath) started playing).

When TBC was released I tried a warrior but didn't get much past lvl25. Then I started my Mage (and now main) Zanzabaa. When I levelled Zanzabaa to 70 I started a new toon shaman (Resto) called Restomental. I am now currently leveling a lock called Zanzinabaa.

I may one day return to my hunter but at the moment these are the chars I will be playing. I dont raid much and thereore the FSW set have been a great help for me to start heroics. Restomental isn't geared for heroics and may stay that way until I pick him up in WotLK.

When not playing wow I like to hang out in pubs and I drum in a couple of bands.

Edit: got older
Edit 2: got Older again

[Fordy]

Hey, I'm Fordy, also known as Catherine, also known as Pete's (Zetten's) girlfriend. I started playing in December and recently reached 70 with my night elf hunter, Silde. My alts are a draenei warrior named Herja, currently at 55, a human rogue Corgan, NE priest Mithren (both 23 atm) and a few more insignificant ones.

I play games to get away from having to talk to people so I am pretty shy in game too and I am always scared of doing instances. But if I do enough I might get over it.

[lileath]

Hi I’m Mark

I’m 27 years old, I come from the south east of England (16 miles north of Brighton)

I started playing WoW about November 2006 I got the game because my brother Pete (Zanzabaa) had the game. I played it a few times when I was on my days off and decided to get it my self.
My 1st char was a Pally called Zabre witch I started to LV up with my bro who enrolled in a priest call Edwil.
I all so started a Gnome Rogue called Lileath witch is my main and I am currently doing a new toon call Pileath.
I didn’t join TSH until about June 2007 when lileath reach 70 I asked if I could join.
I know former guildys like Andil, Zazil and Scrot in RL but not seen them for a long time.
In my spear time I like watching DVD grate love of Science Fiction and animay like the Guyver series I love spending time on You Tube just looking at what people up load.

[neoboy]

I'm neoboy and I don't like any of you.

[Primar]

I'm neoboy and I don't like any of you.

Oh dear lord.
