This saturday we have a couple of choices. Since we are now in our early 20s we could 1) make parties of five and go to Shadowfang Keep and/or Blackfanthom Deep (or Deadmines if someone still needs that) or 2) make a raid and go for Razorfen Kraul.
I think my suggestion is
Saturday the 24th of May: Razorfen Kraul (raid)
Saturday the 31st of May: Razorfen Kraul/Gnomeregan (raid)/Arathi Basin and or Warsong Gulch
Saturday the 7th of June: Gnomeregan (raid)
It is of course allowed for anyone and everyone to do instances on there own, saturday is just an opportunity to do it together.
Regarding the levelcap - this saturday the level cap is 25, but after that im a little in the dark. Because i want to have everyone at the same page, and the amount of time every level takes get bigger. My suggestion is that the next level cap is 30, but we can either do it as the level cap for the comming saturday or make it a level cap over a fortnight (that makes lvl 30 the level cap for the 7th of june). that way the level cap still goes in steps of 5 levels, but we get longer time to get there.
But what do you say?

I like the instance ideas. But I must say most instance ideas are just by demand when we're online... (like starting shadowfang keep and then thinking...hey why not take BFD as well...) So I think we'll be able to work out which instances when we're all online. (but having the oppurtunities listed is handy, gives ppl a chance to get adjacent flightpaths and such)
As for the lvl cap. Can we do something to lvl the lowlvls ? I see us saying its a max, but we are constantly trying to do the highest instance what our lvl allows
(and that kinda leaves our lowlvls behind)
For the lvl cap "an sich" I find it difficult not to lvl up while trying to up my professions/help others. Just doing the quests in an area ups your lvl by almost 2. Then travelling to distant places to get flightpaths and such on the way to your profession trainer gives you another couple of experience boosts. Like right now I'm stuck to doing BG, because another instance (untill saturday) will lvl me. Same goes for farming mats for my professions, these require high(er) lvl stuff so getting them requires me to travel into high(er) lvl areas. The instancing we did this week: SFK and then BFD lvld lisz and me with 2 lvls.
I'd like to hear from others if they find lvling easy or difficult (could be class related) and in what mather they'd like help or how they view the lvl cap. (i.e. is the lvlcap too high, or too low).
I personally find the lvlcap low because the amount of experience you get is so overwhelming. That however does not mean I don't agree with the lvlcap. I'm all for it. (I just find it difficult to stay under while playing with my dwarf)
(hope this made any sense...)

Agree on the level cap its a great idea that should be upheld.But some help for the lower levels would be the right ingo way to deal with the current situation.
I for one spend a lot of time on my dwarf and find the level cap easily reached each time within the time period.Almost capped my mining and engineering (rest is capped already) so no further improvement till lvl 30.
In the meanwhile I am leveling Asbach (a red Eversongwoods lynx) wich will probably have me on the brink of 26 before he is of any use instancing.But think that with the amount of xp needed to ding rising, the level cap will prove its purpose if we get the lower lvl ingo's up to par with the capped dwarves now.And thus keeping the Ingo way of play available for all ingo's

Since that patch where they made levelling easier, they actually did make levelling so easy it's rediculous. Doing SFK and BFD in a group, gave me 1.5 levels, which brought me to the level cap!
We could maybe organise an afternoon or night in which the people that are actually serious in doing their Ingo, but are a bit behind, are being helped with quests or dungeons to get them equal with the others?
I would really like to raid RFK and Gnomeregan! SFK and BFD are actually quite low level...
I'm going to a birthdayparty of a friend in Rotterdam saturday, but it's in the afternoon, so I'm thinking I'll be home before 8.
See you then!

My feeling on raids vs 5 mans is that we should always raid where possible, even if its a bit under (or over) level. We've all done 5 mans before and can do now, if we have the time - but to socially raid the lowbie instances is something unique.
Regarding professions I'm not maxed in mine but I am generally able to make stuff that requires a higher level than the current cap to use, so I'm not too worried on this front.
Starting to notice that pally levelling (as Prot anyway) isn't quite as quick as, say, a hunter. Then again I've maybe been online less than some.

Well everyone is slower than a hunter in solo leveling anyway, so dont dont feel to bad about that 
.
And yes we could go Razorfen Kraul this saturday already if people are up for it. The level cap for entering is set at 17, so that should be fun for all (gnomeregan is set at 20).
But on another thought (since you mentioned being prot spec, bux) i was thinking of switching to healbot. We have enough warriors to do the tanking, and plenty of dps with rogues and hunters, but we are seeing a shortage of healpower. 2 out of our 4 priests havent been online in agood while, so maybe i should go healbot just we wont be in demand of healing? Or am i seeing trouble where no trouble is? And its really not because i want to be a healbot, i prefer dishing out the damage, but if needed i will put on the red cross armband and administer the bandaid.

I noticed once more that I really don't like skining and switched that to engineering. Am a bit low still but that's ok. Just hope to get to 165 before doing Gnomeregan.Regarding professions I'm not maxed in mine but I am generally able to make stuff that requires a higher level than the current cap to use, so I'm not too worried on this front.
Palladins take ages for one fight. Yet the survivability is amazing. And specially as prot specced you can make up for it by fighting quite a few mobs, AoE-wise. Get a shield spike, use retribution aura, blessing of sanctuary and holy shield a lot (once you have those); you can pull 5-8 mobs and just stand there leting them kill themselves slowly on your reflective damage, occasionally bubbling and healing yourself.

Have no huge aspirations to be a pally tank, just trying out something different really. Prot relies heavily on being hit to do reflective damage so its not proving so useful in our raids up to now (tho BoK is handy to have)....i was thinking of switching to healbot. We have enough warriors to do the tanking, and plenty of dps with rogues and hunters, but we are seeing a shortage of healpower. 2 out of our 4 priests havent been online in agood while, so maybe i should go healbot just we wont be in demand of healing?...
A holy/ret (shockadin) build can do OK dps given spelldamage gear and still heal to boot. Unless we are stuck for tanks that's one of my options once I'm a bit higher level.

Okidoki, based on replies i have now adjusted the raid nights. We are indeed going to Razorfen Kraul tomorrow (the 24th of May), and depending on how well we are doing tomorrow and how cocky we get we can either do it again next saturday (the 31st of May) or try out gnomeregan. Either way gnomeregan is on the menu the 7th of June.
And yes im all for us "highlevel" helping out the "lowlevel" more so we all can be equal and so forth. So help thy cousin
.
Still a bit undecesive about the level cap though. If operation "help thy cousin" is a succes, then yes we can raise it, but otherwise i wouldnt mind staying as previous mentionen at lvl 30 on two weeks instead of one.
And regarding the healbot situation, i think ill wait a little. I can always be back up heal, when im not slaying away with my awesome 2handed pally mace, throwing bombs or sending in explosive sheep. The joys of a pally dwarf engineer.
And on that engineering note - i can make the Gnomish Uniervsal Remote and it seems i have one spare, of there is a engineer with 125 that needs one. It has the following ability when used:
"Allows control of a mechanical target for a short time. It may not always work and may just root the machine or make it very very angry. Gnomish engineering at its finest."
I figured that would come in handy in gnomeregan.

I'm going to have to take a bit of a back seat with The Ingos. When the idea was first put out it was going to be 2 or 3 hours once a week levelling together/instancing together for a bit of a change. It's changed into gain 5 levels during the week and we'll raid/instance on a saturday night. I haven't really got the time to level during the week as I have lots I still want to do on my main Thunderhorn characters which I give a priority. I've only missed one saturday and I'm already 11 levels behind a lot of players plus I can't commit to every saturday evening due to RL commitments. I'll sure there are some other who are in the same boat so maybe we can get those of us who are lagging behind together for some lower instances now and again.
