Fill me in on WoW ...
So ya, I've been avoiding this game like the plague so I don't lose me life to it ... should I go ahead and give in though?
How long does it take to level up a useful character?
How long does it take to gain decent equipment?
How many Legionaire's actually make new characters? :P
Aren't you enraged every month when the fee goes through?
Ya, and anything else you might have to add ...

Oh, and if I do start playing, what server do I need to join and do I have to pick a specific race or anything?

i try to answer a few of your questions:
server: mannoroth (US-server)
new characters: all of us create new characters all the time..., so you should never be alone.... and if you need help lots of lvl 60 (max lvl) are willing to help out!
how fast goes leveling: well, at the beginning it gets very fast and you can get used to the game and character.... then it slows down and the last levels go really slow
there is this dirty command "/played" you can check how much time you played with the character... i think when i reached lvl 60 it was like 15 days (playtime - almost scary)
but since you will have expirienced players around you all the time it will go a lot faster cause they will know where to finish which quests....
equipment: not a problem until you hit 60... we have a very organised lootdatabase where you can request stuff... you find the link in the wow-section
payment: no, actually i dont care cause i pay 25€ in 3 months! if i go out on a saturday evening i pay 3€ per beer.... so that makes 8 beers for 25€ - instead of going out one day in 3 months i play wow and there i get my money back (yeah i always count in beers - thats normal here in austria)

Ya, but Horus is oldschool, back in the PA 25 hours a day age :P]
Everyone playing Alliance or Horde? Or both?
And measuring things in drinking money is a fun way to do it ... mind you, living in British Columbia with our world famous weed and all, I gotta figure I could get at least a 1/4 and a six pack for a 3 month subscription :P Good think I don't smoke a lot and don't drink beer. :P
*edit* And ya, before you flame me for not drinking beer (I'm slowly trying to force myself to like it mind you ...) I'll gladly go shot for shot with anyone here :P I'd lose, but I'd gladly participate ;)

Hah, and when you think of it, it was only taking us like 20-25 days to put 15 days worth of play into PA :P
