Howdy all!

I am technically a returning player, but I didn't play much when I originally joined because I had too many web-based games vying for my attention at the same time. So this is the first time I've gotten back into the game for *checks old HTML for update date* 8 years! Wow. XD

I have four major horse games in my history. First is the original Horseland. I was a member back when you could breed a Ford Explorer to a Lava Lamp and have the foal be Yoda. Because of that I started a player run community called the Arabian Breeders Association, to promote "purebred" Arabian strains without the stray Shania Twain and Chair breeds entering into the bloodlines. I don't remember what my player name was back then, but probably somethng cringy. XD

I played the short lived but much loved Ludus Equinus until that managed to self implode.

The longest game I ever played was Equus Nation (Formerly DUHS), which I played for decades. But sadly I believe that game may have faded away. It was very time intensive to remain competitive and when I took a new job last year I didn't have the time to play it as often, and last time I looked to login the domain had poofed.

I currently play Horse Reality as well, but I have been really missing the "points go up" style of horse game. XD  

So here I am! I will be starting out with two breeds, Black Forest Horse and Kelpies. I see one of the breeds I worked with 8 years ago has poofed from the game I assume for inactivity, so I think one of my goals will be to rally to bring it back from the shadow realm so I can breed them again too!

I also am an avid player of World of Warcraft, have three kitty cats named after WoW characters, and I work as a Quality Assurance/Metadata technician for a company that digitizes historical documents. So that's pretty much about me, and I look forward to playing with everyone! :D

Hello!

I'm also a avid WoW player and I'd happily do anything with you on there as well. Welcome back to HP! I'm so glad you rejoined us. You're job sounds absolutely fascinating to me, but I'm not going to overwhelm you with questions about that. Instead I'll ask: Fill in the blank (not that it really matters anymore lol) 'For the _______'? & What do you main and like to do in game on WoW?

For the Horde!

Though to be honest I have been playing both factions equally since Legion. XD I have two mains currently, one Horde and one Alliance. Horde is a blood elf hunter, and Alliance is a dwarf warrior.

As for what I do, I have 3 main things I do. First I am a collector of things. Mounts, Battle pets, toys, transmog. I have spreadsheets for all the things I need to collect and where/how to get them. XD I also level a lot of alts. A lot. I think my main server has over 40 characters on it. And lastly I am a Roleplayer. I have been on RP servers since Cata. Though I have not been RPing at all lately because of the server time zones, my time zone, and the hours required for me to go to bed for work. It's a bit frustrating to try and find guilds and players around on my time schedule.

How are you liking Dragonflight so far? Due to some.... odd circumstances I haven't played much of it yet. But what I have played of it, I love. Especially Dragon Riding. It's so jarring to go back to the old world and realize mounts Don't work the same. XD

And feel free to ask about my job! It sounds interesting on paper but the mechanics of it are kinda really boring. But it pays the bills!

O M G! Another spreadsheet person!!!!! -hug tackle-I have detailed spreadsheets for HP, WoW, and PoE. I spend a lot of time making / maintaining them and I always felt a little odd because of how everyone reacted when I told them. I see I've found good company!

I am also mainly Horde with a few things Alliance. My alliance toons are a druid and a warrior but I haven't used them since Shadowlands. I am also a collector of things and I love mounts, battle pets, and toys. I don't know if you've seen the Twitch drops, but they are doing a portal toy right now! My main toons are a Guarian Druid Troll, a Troll BM Hunter, and a holy priest I dabble in from time to time.

I do light Dragonflight, but I can already tell you've been playing a lot longer than me. I just started in Shadowlands Season 2. -hides face- Dragonriding I hated at first until I managed to get a hang of it and now when I go back to the old world I get a little annoyed at the flight speed. The only thing I dislike about DF right now is that my flight form is virtually useless and it's rather annoying. I wish they'd just implement a way for the dragonriding things to work for the druid flightform as well.

Yay new best friend! :D

I used spreadsheets for all my other horse games too, and will too with HP once I get enough horses through my stables to use one. XD

I love the Twitch drops. Get a free item for doing nothing! I learned to just tune in to Asmongold's stream, mute it and just go on doing other things. XD I love the new Traders monthly thingamadohickey too!

I have been playing since the tail end of Vanilla. I think I joined 3 or 4 months before Burning Crusade's release.

*gentle shoulder pats* I apologize you had to come in for the dumpster fire that was Shadowlands. Even I ended up taking a bit of a break in the middle of the expansion because I got frustrated with it. 

Hello!!

Ah the peak of HL haha! I get vivid flashbacks of a line of (PUREBRED) Pancake Bunnies I had LOL.

Welcome back!

Welcome! Omg HOUSEPLANT HL DAYS! I am a HL vet as well. I should maybe mention I used to be "Arduous" aka Ardy, back on HL, DUHS, Equintium, and briefly LE.

Also, we need to exchange battlenet and discord info. Concourse drug me kicking and screaming into WoW so now I am also FOR THE HORDE! Although I don't do spreadsheets lol. We will all have to get together and run some stuff for sure! I have a BM hunter, Feral druid, Destro Warlock and now I am leveling my Guardian Druid.

Zug zug! We will have to exchange battle tags later on! :D I still am working on getting my main to max level  (As I said, it's kind of an odyssey why I haven't played much Dragonflight yet.) But they're 63, so getting there!

We are always happy to help level! I ... uh... I love dungeons, M , and raiding - Ris likes to quest and stuffs. So we compromise and do a little of everything, though sometimes she still kicks and screams. ^-^; So we can definetely get together soonish in game.

Welcome!

You've peaked my interest. What breed are you looking for? People create forum threads on here all the time advocating for adding breeds whether they were previous represented breeds removed or totally new breeds. You share a little about the breed and rally is it 3 or 5 players who will breed them. When you get the list of players together, you message Koni to get them added, I believe.

Hiiiii ~

Ilu for naming the foal Yoda (I'm a huge SW fan). 

Also great intro - I'm waiting to share more about myself til i think mid next week when my profile layout editing can be unlocked (I'm new here), but your awesome into makes me regret not sharing more XD. 

Glad to have you back here ^-^

Kerry Bog Ponies! They are my fav pony breed, and I know they were a past breed on here as I remember breeding them, and also found an old one floating about. Once I get all my accounts settled I do plan on advocating for them. :D

Oh! I don't know anything about them, but I do feel like I remember seeing them in the list back before the purge.

Hello and welcome! It's lovely to have you here. Your job sounds super cool, and right up my alley!  

Another fellow WoW player here, been playing since 2008. Mained Holy Paladin since the dawn of time, and have been raiding in a hardcore ranked guild for the past 12 years. I am currently raiding on Classic WoTLK, as I can't stand retail anymore; I really dislike the direction the game has taken. Classic WoW has all the right feels for me, the nostalgia and the progression feels balanced and rewarding; it was a time when skill spoke volumes about your progression and gear. I mostly raid log now, as I am too busy with work/study/HP/RedM RP/parenting, but am still fairly competitive when it comes to raid rankings. I am also in a 3's team, with a ranking of 2400. 

Do you play Diablo as well? 

Feel free to add me to Battlenet if you wish! Lovely to meet you :)

Welcome back!

All of this WoW talk makes me feel like I'm missing out lol

I did give Diablo 3 a try when it first came out. It was a very nice looking game but it wasn't really my thing overall. I also used to play Overwatch and Heroes of the Storm (RIP) for a little when they came out too, haven't even touched Overwatch 2. XD Hearthstone is okay but I only really play mercenary mode when I'm bored because I am bad at card games and can't keep out with their rapid-fire expansions. I do love the cinematics they make for each expansion though!

Also, here is my Battletag for anyone who wants to add me! :D

Welcome back! :D
