I'm not in a rush for this, though I'm almost guarranteed to get it. I play on Earthen Ring(RP-server), and for quite a while my character talked of Blood Elves. It would be a darn shame if I didn't continue onto this one. Anyway, I think I have a friend or two who will be joining WoW with the Blood Elf expansion. I might actually make a Blood Elf as well, just so I can have a nearly-placed Horde character to help 'em out. For a while, I was thinking of making a Tauren, but I may go the Blood Elf route as well.
Not sure when I'll start on this, mainly because I have too much on my plate, at the moment. Once I re-arrange my time, I'll nab the expansion and continue.
