Dungeons and Dragons Online

Sorry, not sure about posting new threads in the forum.  If this is somewhere else let me know and I will move this thread.

Just wanted to see if anyone else is playing Dungeons and Dragons Online now that it is free?  Takes about 3 and a half hours to download for the standard graphic version.  I have two hours left.....

I think at one time there was a thread a long time ago.  I used to play a lot of table top D & D and tried the online version.  It was ok, but I still stick to WOW for right now.  Only so much time in the day.  ;)

Oddly enough I was listening to the 1983 podcast today and Rico mentioned the D&D cartoon which was awesome and it got me to thinking. I luved playing D&D but half the fun was me prepping the adventures and DMing for my mates, not that they ever appreciated my complex plots, they appeared to think all situations could be solved by fireballs! Anyway I digress, I've played WoW and Warhammer online and although they were good, they are too restricted so I wondered if you could use the internet to play D&D properly. Obviously you'd have to trust the guys on the other end for dice rolls etc, but would it be the same or as good as the long summer afternoons hunched over a DM shield rolling dice, rolling the weather dice so it always rained because one of my group was forever activating his "electric" armour.....ah those were the days.
