I met alot of people on the game throughout the years but there is only one who I ever actually wanted to meet IRL, "Erlegh" you will never be forgotten.
Dunno why it's gotta be a show... I don't think I would do this. We would just, y'know, talk to EACH OTHER to set something up. We already are planning it haha, no need for an intermediary.
Long story short, fell in love and now we're living together, even though we're from different country.
I met the love of my life playing WoW, and have never been happier lol
I was riding a boat to Howling Fjord when I saw this female nelf with a cool weapon! I complimented it and we started talking about..well, just about us and everything. We got close a few times but we're friends all in the end. Her and I still talk when we're not busy, and while she doesn't play WoW anymore, she's still someone I respect and enjoy talking with!
I guess you could say my best friend that I met in WoW would have to be Ebu the Uber Booberkin. She and I live states apart but our friendship grew to something outside the game, comparing kids woes, husband quirks, computer difficulties and more. She even made me a quilt when I had to have surgery a few years ago and I treasure it. We send each other birthday cards and Christmas presents. She's a shoulder, a sounding board, a great source of humor and advice and there are times I don't know how I would have gotten through them without her.
Oh boy, i've met so many people and made so many friends it's hard to keep track of them all. My social life is almost entirely in WoW and i feel that's not a very bad thing. I suppose a good one to mention would be a person i met in dungeon finder, a 50- year old man who loved to talk about motorcycles. We stayed in the dungeon, chatting about all sorts of topics and having fun long after the Weaponmaster fell before my unlimited tank-spec dps prowess, amazed by our group's skillz.Many jokes were told, much fun was had and many tears were shed over tales of bikes being crashed on their first day of purchase. We exchanged battletags and are now arena buddies. This just proves how unpredictably you can make friends in WoW.
Heh. I had been playing for some time, with that guild. They were all quite friendly and we had a fantastic time together, the raids were excellent and they were very social. Most of them knew each other pretty good, as they were all (pretty much) from England. Then one day it happened. There was going to be a guild meetup. They were like; You're so coming to see us! We'll even order flight tickets for you! I was somewhat speechless but gratefully accepted. I flew from Sweden to England and enjoyed my very first guild meetup. It was awesome.
Though I have never met any of my friends from wow, I still consider the friendships special! I have a friend who I met a few years back in cataclysm after I started doing RBGs with the guild I was with at the time. Since then we have been great friends, and what's better is that we are both mount collectors, so we do a lot of old instances/raids together and help each other to get the mounts we need. In the middle of last year I got my flametalon, and decided to help my friend get it. A few months later and it dropped for him also! Now its an on going cycle to repay each other xD.
Met alot of good people ingame actually, it even makes up for all the retards i've met :)
Everyone I met from WoW has already quit the game unfortunately. Even my rl friends with whom I started playing WoW quit a long time ago. Now, I'm the only person in The Sha'tar-EU Orgrimmar, weeping behind cacti.
I have one friend I met through wow, we met in a scenario run while waiting for the launch of mists of pandaria. We're on different realms, but enjoy grouping up and killing stuff from time to time ;) I think it's nice to have a friend I've never met IRL, I sometimes think it's easier to talk to him about personal stuff, as I know I will never run into him at the store on a bad day. I don't think I would go and meet him if I was given the chance, I like having an anonymous friendship, however weird as that sounds.
My Sis and I have several friends we met in Wow who have become RL friends.One couple we talk with in Skype daily, & they are traveling out to see us this summer & looking for a place to live.House hunting for friends we have been talking with for over 3 years is a blastI discovered last year that a FB friend is one of my Guildmates :DBoth of us have helped Guildmates out when they could not afford the subscription costs & one one WoW friend recently gave my Sis a new Keyboard & DVD drive when hers quit.
My lifelong friend told me about this wondeful game years ago and bought me a copy of the game and RaF. We leveled a lot. Best times, best times.
This post was from a user who has deleted their account.
Around three years ago I had gotten into a guild, just one of those that spam invites for members. Inside of the guild were a few cool people, but no one really talked. One of them was very friendly and liked to run dungeons and raids with me. Over time we grew fairly close, and added each other on Facebook. A few months later she quit WoW and went on to other things. A few weeks ago she came back, and we talk from time to time.
I met many ppl from my guild and have done a lot of fun stuff whit them
I have met a lot of friends from various guilds, and i have forme many friendships from that, it was a good experience :D
I saw an lost person running around not knowing what to do, he had the wrong gear, didnt know where to quest and so on, i felt so bad for him and just started to talk to him, help him out with quests and gear, we had a really fun time and we are still friends to this day :)
Most of the people I met became my fiends. Even if I met only a few of them in real life, we always keep in touch. Wow is a great social platform, but without a guild you can miss this.
