Welcome to TiLt, Headquarters of the Warjammers. We're a group of students who have decided to addict ourselves to Warhammer Online and see what happens. How does it affect our lives? Our school work? Our relationships? Our interaction with reality? We're interested in what it means to play an MMORPG, and particularly in what it means to be addicted to one.
In-game we can be found on the Wasteland server on both Order and Destruction. You might run into us holding a peace protest on a small island at the top of the Nordenwatch scenario, dancing around in the Sea of Claws with members of both factions, or holding Gaming Addicts Anonymous meetings in Altdorf.
Alternatively, you might see us holding a fight club in Nordland, or offering our services as bounty hunters in the capitol cities. Hate a player on the same side as you? Let us know; we'll have our members of the other team kill their character as many times as you'd like. What if you want to talk to people from the other side but are frustrated by the inability to communicate across factions? Tell us that too and we'll translate for you instantaneously.
Why are we doing this? Because we're interested in playing games in ways that they were never intended to be played. Because we like the idea of pushing the boundaries of freedom and choice in a space where you're supposed to follow a set path. Because we think its a pretty cool thing to be getting a grade for doing.
So check out what we have to say and if you're interested in hearing more, join our guild WarJammers by contacting Ragnaarok in-game. I'm the burly red-bearded dwarf you wouldn't want to pick a fight with, but if you talk to me nicely I may just make you my oath friend. ;)
** Update: We are no longer on the Wasteland server. We can now be found in Iron Rock.

i was concerned about the term "oath friend"...
Initially i thought you meant Oaf friend, (oaf = an awkward stupid person)
then i thought you meant oath friend in the sense that an oath is a solemn promise...maybe you were proposing digital marriage? hah
then i googled "oath friend" (=foundation for the Ironbreaker class to function as a tank)
