Are there any old farts out there?...Or am I the only one.

    I'm only 35, so I barely qualify as a grown-up, let alone an old fart.

    That's basically what I did too (although sometimes my dad let me play Zork on his computer).

    As I mentioned earlier, I'm certainly of an age that allows me in the Old Farts club; but I'd like to define myself further with my playing style... silent but deadly! >:)
    NA Mega-server
    Basilthwaite - male Nord Templar Ebonheart Pact (unwittingly looks like Hulk Hogan. Trying to find some bright gold breeches to match the persona.)

    Arwen Basilrond - female Wood Elf Nightblade Aldmeri Dominion (this character is smoken', but she's been advised to quite due to 'elf reasons!)

    Sir Basil Ozarian - male Imperial Dragonknight Daggerfall Covenant (this character is titled, but not entitled!)

    Doesn't work. Are you all sure you're posting your GAME account names and not your forum names? Or am I just doing it wrong?

    Or ... any Old Farts who want to can send me a friend invitation at @SueDNim .

    I tried in game email to SueDNim and it said unknown player. Is there another way to do it.? I'd like to join a guild (I'm 43)

    Quite positive, my dear. They are the same, with the exception of the tilde above the n.

    It could be the fault of the current loading issues with the server.

    So are there any OtH guilds based in the Ebonheart Pact? I would love more play time with people I can relate to.

    Guilds are tied to account, not character, so basically all your characters, no matter what faction, belong to all your guilds.

    Right, but 3 of my 4 guilds are full of "kids." The one that is not has 6 people in it. My characters are all in EP because that's where the other 5 wanted to play. I would a like a large guild with "old farts" in it. Mainly because they know how have fun in a civilized manner. I have been saving my 5th guild slot just in case I can find one.

    Being "old" in reality is a state of mind. Sure you might fall down and can't get up due to a broken hip...but this is why I play on a laptop.
