Just me, and that leaves it dead, for now -- I recommend going Alliance on Silverhand or Proudmoore and joining up with Dvixen's or ThatCash's (respectively) group. Actually... do it on Proudmoore -- I'll start playing my Dwarven Hunter again and we can join their guild, if the Southern Wardens don'...

There's a certain point before which a little extra cash is very nice for obtaning wants beyond needs.

I've got Alliance on Medivh, Horde on Silver Hand (which is likely the highest concentration of BD people on a RP server... but they're all on the Alliance Side), and a low-level Alliance on Proudmoore. Horde on Gurubashi, but that's PvP -- not wankered yet, but it will be in time. No one up high en...

The PvP Honor System is disgusting (not in a good way, and not the rewards, though those are nice). Though as people slowly realize that you can report people for harrassment if they continually keep a town down, it's improving. I mean, I expect a lot fo PvP stupidity on a PvP server.
