WoW Modes

[Chronicle]

Hi
I just got WoW.
Not really too impressed ... doesn't really seem to be much of an aim to it.

But anyway
What is the difference between the RP modes and non RP modes?

I've read what it says on the official site, but what are the actual real differences? And what does it mean by playing in character (or whatever) ... how could you not? :S

Thanks

Rather than starting a new thread i'll just ask a couple of wow q's here. ..

first - is it down for just me at the moment? Or down for everyone? I can login, but then it makes me select from a list of realms that don't exist...

Also, I found out about that fair(e) (dark moon i think its called) and that it only happens once a month or every 2 months or something like that. Are there any decent "events" coming up soon that I should visit?

I need to level up ... only lv 11.....

Ah ok

I am still on the 10 day trial. I downloaded the game (took forever!) so don't have anything from any shop so far.

If i want to continue, what is the best (and cheapest) way to carry on?
Can i pay for a 30/60 day extension online?

thanks
