I had wow a while ago when it first came out, made it all the way to a 41 or 42 warlock and decided to quit (i was on doomhammer which was down daily). But i just read about the expansion and a new race being the blood elves and i have always wanted to be one, but my problems with getting the expansion are that if it doesnt come out soon (anyone have a date?) then im even farther behind, and is it worth it to start over at lvl 1 so late in the game?
