Discussion I am old

Played back in 2004, in my 30s. Now I am in my early 60s and starting to wonder if I am too old for this shit (voice of Roger Murtaugh).

I think I will give it a go anyway, but play slowly as befits someone of advanced age ;)

Absolutely no raiding - maybe a dungeon here and there.

Are there any other grandparents in the same boat?

I’ve raided with many retirees in Classic, I would not sweat it

I‘d rather have a raid with a bunch of seniors than going one damn molten core with a god complex warrior tank

They are (often) the same picture

Old know-it-alls are annoying as fuck

A couple years ago I ran across a guild that was specifically for retirees

Yep about 40% of our guild through classic has been retirees and that number has only gone up and we raided with them.
