I see, well before i buy i need to know how much the membership costs a month. I hear it's like $15 or something, and the game is $90.

1. If you pay $90 for WoW you are getting ripped off.
2. The price varies by whatever plan you take. It can be as little as 12.99 or as much as 14.99
3. If you need WoW beginner tips, see my sticky thread. Which reminds me, I really do need to update that...

I personally picked the $15.00 per month. That is a nice price for the game in my opinion. BTW, I am fully addicted to the game wich is kinda why I havent been on the forums in almost 7 months [img]smile.gif[/img] Sorry Z... I suck.

Hmm.. i think i'll be a rouge, and i have yet to call myself a name for the character (i know you get four slots). I don't want somebody else nicking my name before i use it! Which class is best for money making though i wonder..

If your going for the class that makes the most money, you'll end up hating it. Its not really certain classes that make the most money, but rather the professions. But if you want to rake in the cash, I think a Rogue Skinner/Miner would be the best money making combo.

well for us, with the current exchange rate, it works out to be about $19 a month, and I managed to get the game from Big W for $50 ;)

Definantly worth it, this game is like crack :D

I went to Harvey Norman.. They charge $89.95 for the game and $20 for membership monthly. $35 for the 60 day card though.. But i think you dish out too much cash for the game, these guys must make millions a month.

Is there a friends list in the game so i can chat to me mates? Also which side should i join, Alliance or Horde? I'm so used to Runescape so yeah..

Yes, get it.
The game kicks ass, and quite a few people here play.
Azeral and I play Horde characters, and yes you can have a friends list ;)
