HAPPY ANNIVERSARY WoWPriests.info!
This is the 4th Anniversary of the site. I believe this is the longest I’ve ever run a web project and stuck with it
We have had quite a few transitions in the last 4 years. Technically the Anniversary was November 1st, but with all the extra hours at work I’ve been doing I missed it and decided to celebrate on December 1st
I purchased this domain in September 2004 and put up a Priest fan site. This was after I bought my way into the fileplanet sponsored stress test of WoW. I got to be involved in both Stress Test 1 and 2, plus Open Beta. Originally when I started getting interested in WoW I was dead set on playing a Druid. So when I got in the stress test I didn’t want to spoil anything so I decided to choose the one class I would probably never play, the Priest. Even though I always played a Cleric in MUDS, all the MMO’s Priest/Cleric classes were always terrible. It turns out though I fell in love with the Priest and I started a fan site for it. The site just never took off though and I decided to take a different approach.
So on November 1st 2005 I started a blog called Adventures of a Dwarf Priest. At the time Dwarves were sought after because of fear ward and such. The blog was originally run on google’s blogger site. Eventually I transitioned it to my own hosting and began using wordpress. The site has undergone several faces in that time period and I am quite happy with the evolution of the site now.
I’ve had a lot of ideas I have wanted to do and not had the time to complete. I am hoping that some of things I have planned I will be able to get done this coming year. I am also pretty excited about the new expansion and changes to the world. There will be all new set of exciting adventures. My recent entry into Texas Mercenaries brings forth a new set of raiding adventures, and we have the climax to the Lich King saga coming up here soon! I’ve also picked up Shadow again and there will be many more adventures in my attempts to become a useful and proficient DPS to go along with my amazing Disc healing abilities
Thanks to everyone who reads and enjoys the site! This has continued to be a very interesting experience for me.
Was going to post some links to some interesting moments in the past over the next few days. I’d like to start out with the second entry posted to this blog. This was back on Deathwing after my original guild Witch Hunters dissolved and I was looking for a new guild. I applied a guild called FEST that turned out to lead to many many interesting adventures
Check out this post. It gives you an idea of what my UI used to look like, and the old site
