As I did, on one eye.

No, I didn't play a long time, no I didn't exhaust my eyes etc.

I swear before God all this is true, and only the justifiable. In october 2008 I played WOW in one instance when a female char with pink or purple pirate like hat made a buff. In the same moment I saw blind round circle in center of one of my 2 eyes.

And today im blind on one eye.

Thank you , well can happen in 1 out 10 million cases.

Have fun rather outside.

Oh, just by the way , my personal data is random bro. Also Blizzard harrased me purposely in the game or their GM.

Were like hundreds of toons falling down whenever I appeared in wow this year (also their names were brilliant). Pure coincidence of course.

And please excuse me. Don't make irony, humour, grotesque for someone who lost the most priceless organ.

I have medical proofs if you want. Also : macula bleeding in retina.

Yeah make fun of tragedy.

I won't call you a lier or anything, and I don't know anything about your illness.

But given the amount of people playing WoW and the amount of time played, you could probably find many people who suffered some kind of illness while playing WoW, that have nothing to do with the game. It's all statistics... Every day/hour/minute/second some person gets an illness for no reason what so ever.

You just got it while playing WoW. You might as well have been watching a movie.

 This.

I have watched idiots weld with no visors on and experience no health issues.   Granted, I am not saying it isn't possible but I don't believe you.  Sounds to me like just one other person trying to get rich the American way.

It's a Jeep thing. . .

yes games and movies can cause over long periods of times to make your vision worse but i dont think theres a single proof of fact that your eye went blind in one eye BECAUSE of WoW, im not saying you arent blind in one eye but as much games with flashy lights as i have played i probably would be blind by now if what your saying is true lol,</p>

I already told you the main cause that triggered bleeding, hypertension in milisecond when I saw that female toon made buff.

ya but why blame wow  if its even possible this could happen in any game that flashes and surely it would be the monitor at fault as its that that transmits light to your eyes. so u had a crappy/faulty monitor or you had bad eyes in the first place.

 

i still wanna know if it was a gnome :P

Hey what's up Dark Eye Grillok! .... Oh wait.

I lol'd.

 

I actually saw a house once that was vandalized, and they turned EVERY object in the house upside down. The fridge couchs buckets of nails (they where still working on the house) lamps everything....it was awsome.

I'm pretty sure WoW didn't cause your eye blindness. Do some reading at emedicinehealth.com and wrongdiagnosis.com then you'll see why I say that.

Thank you for your compassion, good , good people.

To feac : I play games since spectrum 48k and tried every kind of mmorpg. Maybe God wanted this happens in WOW , I don't know. In all my other human possible experiences I didn't encounter such problem.

Maybe you want screenshot? Ask Blizzard

@OP. You have given the term "playing till your eyes bleed" a whole new meaning. Sorry if your ailment is real but im having a very hard time getting around this one as true.

Can we get this thread locked?  Whether or not the OP is truthful, his statements are pure trolling and/or idiocy.

(You could have a heart attack after dying in WOW PVP, but WOW isn't to blame for your preexisting condition.)
