I have specifically never picked up that game because I knew what it would do to me.

Yup and they are all either "loladins" or druids standing in Orgrimmar seeing how many they can get to do the stupid bear dance.

Re: World Of Warcraft, an unhealthy addiction?
I never liked playing RPG type games so never seen it in action.
I read somewhere that apparently some employers were looking to employ people who played the game often for their management skills or something. lol |

If you can't control yourself, you shouldn't be playing WoW.

Re: World Of Warcraft, an unhealthy addiction?
I don't play WoW (play EQ2), but I think most all good MMORPG are unhealthy addictions.

Re: World Of Warcraft, an unhealthy addiction?
I just got out of WoW for the second and final time. It's only an unhealthy addiction if you let it become that. Unfortunately, just to keep up and get the gear you need to explore new areas, you are forced to play it for an unhealthy amount of time. It's not so much the time involved, either, but the fact that you have to schedule your life around the game. 40-man raids don't just come together on their own. You have to tolerate guild life, which, like EP said, is hell. Our guild got to Rag in MC, but the drama in the guild had been building for months and eventually the guild fell apart.
It seems like everyone that finally leaves the game gets a good pat on the back from people on the way out, as if they were congratulating a fellow prisoner on making parole
