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 Wow, you mean, in all of the rest of your day-to-day activities, nothing else made you go spontaneously blind in one eye, like World of Warcraft did. Sorry, this is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. So, if I'm sitting in my back yard, hand feeding a baby bird that fell out of a tree, and a 747 engine comes plummeting out of the sky and crushes me, my house and the baby bird...it's either because of the baby bird, or because God didn't want me feeding it? Or or or...you realize how stupid this sounds, right? Dumb thread is dumb.

Just to make things clear... I speak for myself and no one else, unless i state otherwise mine is just an opinion. A fact is something that can be independently verified, you may challenge such but with proof. You have every right to disagree with me through sound argument, i believe in constructive debate, but baseless aggression will warrant an unkind response.

Not all of us can be Donnie Darko "IRL is a pretty upstanding MMO with thousands of classes, a lot of PvP and even some pretty unique emotes and titles you can acquire. Explore that world first, then we'll talk about this virtual one."

Probably been said before, but I would never blame a game for something like this. It would come down to chance. Most people play games such as WoW for many hours of their day, and because of that it would it would naturally incrase the chance of something happening during the play time. So I could go as far as to say While I was playing WoW an earthquake happened and my house fell down. So I can clearly blame WoW for the earthquake. Don't see that happening where I live but that would make the claim even more crazy.

Originally posted by blindlight 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. WoW didn't do it. The blue light emitted from the monitor and your countless hours in front of it did it. Blue light harms your eyes the most, from what I understand. If you happen upon a new eye to replace your broken one, I recommend these... http://www.thinkgeek.com/tshirts-apparel/miscellaneous/c411/

Your experiences may be as described, but they don't mean that Warcraft blinded you.

I have tried "base jumping" but it take too long to get to the jump height, for just 10 seconds of fun.
