Should I stay or should I go?

Okay, I need a shout out for help. I am at level 21 with Marama. She is a Night Elf Druid. I never made any pretenses that I knew what I was doing when I started this game. In fact, I started it admitting I knew nothing. I have learned some things. In fact, some of my normal vocabulary has been replaced with game speak (as pointed out by another WoW woman gamer). But I am stuck. Stuck at level 21. I have a confession to make. I don't think I like Marama. I mean, sure she looks badass and all, but I am not loving the whole Druid/Night Elf experience. I picked her when I knew very little about what the races/classes etc were.

So, now that I have played many other characters in Burning Crusade, I am starting to fall in love with the Hunter. (Yes, I admit it is mainly because I love having a pet. Don't get me wrong, my little Zerling is fine and all, but doesn't help out worth crap. He is all vanity!)

So here is where you come in:

Do I start with a new character and pretend Marama never existed?

Will one of you be willing to train me in the ways of a Druid NIght Elf so that I can try to level this beyotch before the expansion pack is officially released?

[Sidenote: Just to show you how I struggle with this particular character and quests, last night my husband-level 60 hunter and level 40 plus on many others- walked in and saw where I was in the game and exclaimed, "What the hell are you doing there?? You are so going to get killed. Do you KNOW you are in the heart of Horde territory and most of the creatures there are level 25 and up? Log out and I will help you tomorrow." See? Totally newbie. Yes, I am a newbie. We all were once!]

And you see, I am already to level 17 with my Hunter in BC. So, what do you think I should do? By giving up Marama, that is quitting. That takes this whole experience and shows that it failed. Doesn't it?

Gamers, I know you sneak in here every now and then to read this trainwreck of a gaming blog. Let me hear from you. But save the nasty. I don't need the nasty.

All I wanted was a day to play!

Today is my birthday. Want to know what Blizzard gave me for a birthday present. Just for me. Just to aggro me?

All of the servers I play on are DOWN until tomorrow.

Now WoW for me today? A day that I decided I was going to play WoW as much as I wanted to play. A day when I decided to even play with my NEW KEYBOARD. A day that I really wanted to play.

And they pull the servers.

Someone at Blizzard HAS to answer to this. (Jason?!! Jim?!! SOMEONE?!!)

Aggroqueen is in full aggro mode.

/ end pout

ps- A copy of the Collectors Edition of Burning Crusade will do wonders for the forgiveness category. *grin*
