Ok so first post...pointless yes...grammatically correct? probably not...do i care? not really.
I am a fan of MMORPG's, I mean i've been playing since the good old days of EQ where I sat in my friends basement after school for hours watching my druid be completely usless while trying to convince myself that I really could heal better than a cleric (delusional). After EQ began to die out, i tried EQ2 and Vanguard, but they just didn't do it for me. Finally i came across WoW, the holy grail of MMO's. I spent hours and hours playing this god-forsaken MMO, and like most i eventually hit level 60 BBC (clever abreviation for before burning crusade). So i spend hours applying and sucking up to 40 year old dudes who's dream wife is a flip toss between Princess Lea and a purple Night Elf cleverly named saquajawea. And low and behold, hurray i finally get into a good hardcore guild. Now i sit around for a few weeks doing nothing during my initiation period and blah blah i finally get to raid. So i raid Kara 400-500 (by this point BC came out and i hit level 70) times and move onto the big raiding dungeons. Now here i stand with half my guild all giddy and excitied to take my first look into TK!!!! yay so exciting...but wait i have to sit around and listen to the damn guild leader drone on and on for hours about how this works. Its not like i would get any loot until i raid it 40-50 times successfully because of DKP (gay). so we finally get through and long story short i get all my T5 eventually. At this time about a year or so has elapsed. By the way at this point in time i was pretty straight edge, didnt drink much or do drugs. So one day im in Stormwind with armor and weapons so glowey its hard to look at, and im trying to jump up onto the top of the fountain in front of the AH. So i sit there for about 20 minutes attempting to do this when i say to myself, is this what i am doing with my life?? here i am spending more time jumping around circling level 20 toons then hanging out with my friends. But wait, i have all this great gear, i accomplished so much with my time! it is at this point i look around and notice that every level 70 looks the same as me...fuck my life (this is what drove me to alcoholism). at this point i WTFPWNed my copy of WoW by metaphorically setting it on fire, and began to once again live my life. Thank god, now i hopefully wont end up 40 years old, fat, living with my mother....
words of wisdom: if you dont use it you lose it, and i don't mean the cool down on your soulstone

advice: use paragraphs. This will increase the likelyhood of someone actually reading what you write.

Tue Feb 24 2009 1:32AM ReportLol. I laughed when he said that what drove him to alcoholism was the fact that everyone plays and looks the same in wow xD.... its a good thing you realised wow is crap. Not many people do, believe me....
And no he is not a dumbass... his post could have been better written but he speaks the truth...

Tue Feb 24 2009 4:55AM ReportWoW is a massive time-sink. If this was a game you could play 1.5 hours a night and really get things done, that would be awesome... but it's not.
Use WoW in moderation. Otherwise, WoW will use you.
Tue Feb 24 2009 7:11AM Report...yeah, I don't like it either.
Tue Feb 24 2009 7:22AM ReportDon't get me wrong, I'm bored to death with WoW and have quit for the last time ( I swear it!!!), but it sounds like HOW you played the game and the people you chose to play with are the problem. I enjoyed it for almost 4 years.... off and on.... and off.....and on....

Tue Feb 24 2009 9:01AM ReportWhen i'm getting bored with game that's basicly what i start saying to myself, WHY I'M DOING THIS ? You got a WOW burnout it's pretty common for someone playing that much. You dont like WOW, you just got a burnout, it would have happened with any game. LIke everything in life, too much of something is always bad.
