I’m sure it sounded like a great idea at the time. Let loose the plague, turn the players into zombies, let them create havoc.

But I’ve had enough now. I don’t like PvP. I don’t DO PvP. I play on a PvE server for a reason. And I am SICK of being turned into a zombie and killed. And if I manage to avoid getting turned into a zombie the game is unplayable because the dratted zombies keep killing the quest mobs and flight masters.

This is non-consentual PvP. And it’s not what I signed up for. And I’m sick of it. I just want to play the game.

And on the whole I love it. I love the new talents, I love the new Inscription profession, Stormwind Harbour is great.

But the server stability has been awful!

On Saturday night my guild assembled a full 25-man raid, all ready to kick some booty in Mount Hyjal. And we couldn’t zone in. “Transfer Aborted: Instance not found”. So we dispatched scouts all over Azeroth, to see if we could get in to any instance. No luck. Eventually someone zoned into BRS, and 10 of us headed off to get our “Leeeeeerrooooyy” title.

Sunday I put the baby down for her nap, and decided to reward myself with a little WoW time. Got a group together for the Headless Horseman, and headed over to SM. Zoned in and….. nothing….. I was stuck in limbo. 30 minutes of that, and then the server came down. And remained down all night :(

Last night the server was back, but instances were still unreliable. I didn’t try for the HH, but a guild group did, and although they got there eventually, there was 30 minutes of characters getting stuck trying to zone in beforehand.

Hope everything goes well for our SSC raid tonight. Crossing my branches!
