Dam it.... I'm addicted to WoW

[[TFU] Thegoon84]

Its time i stopped denying it and just admitted to myself that "i love wow".

I've spent the most of my PC gaming time playing BF2, AoC and CSS.... thro out my time playing them all i've ever done is **** WoW off, calling it gay....

However since BC2 completely failed and PC gaming as whole seems to be a dark place atm (imo anyway) i decided to follow some of my fellow clan members and try wow.... We all started new toons to run around with, some brought 80’s over to farm and run us thro instances but majority of us are just enjoying the group play aspect.

I wasn't to impressed to begin with, found it really slow and boring... however the worse thing you can do is give up! So i stuck with it... once i hit level 18 and started doing dungeons it started to grow and grow on me. I then decided to take a look round the world as whole... WOW! ITS MASSIVE... the GFX are far better than video's i've seen, just max your settings and you'll be laughing!

Anyways.... jewel in the crown for me is after i took up mining and decided to spend a few hours levelling my profession... i came back to the fantastic stormwind and started to create some bronze bars, i had a little browse on AH to see how much they were selling for... to my amazement they were going for quite a bit, so i stuck them on.... Well well….. When i sold my few bar's for like 100 GOLD i was landed, literally loving it (sad I know)…. so downloaded an app on my phone to track my auctions and BAM i'm hooked!

So moral of the story is.... Its easy for us to sit there and **** off the game as gay fairy loving hippy crap, but being honest "dont knock it before you've tried it".... play the game with your friends to at least level 30 and watch how hooked you become, its the worlds biggest game ever for a reason!

P.S: The Fallen Unit guild is on the Shadow song alliance servers, all welcome to join us!

I too enjoy a bit of WoW - although lack your capacity for addicition to it!

Too busy with work a wife and family, but given the other demands on my time if I only have time for one game WoW is it.

Sorry guys was out so havn't read thro everything yet...

To above post, i prehaps "addicted" is to strong a word. I too have a wife and a 4 month old daughter. I have 2 - 3 nite a week where i play it, unless we are planning on going somewhere.

2nite (Friday) for example, watching some TV and a movie then once we've put the baby to sleep around 10ish i'l jump on for a few hours.

Yep thats the key with all things, just strike a nice balance. Keep things sensible and there are no problems, go a touch overboard and I doubt a wife who has recently gone through child birth and the emotions of that and after that, or indeed the small baby itself (1 year old/toddler) will much appreciate the time spent playing a game (or games)

Keep the nice balance you have though and you'll have no probs

Yup totally, there are times when i just want to cane the game... but tbh i like having set times to play as its somethig to look forward to ya know!

Love it tho... few beers 2nite and about 5 hours on it!

Best of all cata is gona make it more player friendly to people like me after reading the info!

Your all welcome to join our little leveling guild if ya like!

I read this as 'I'll jump on her for a few hours'....perhaps I play too much wow

You reminded me of 'Make Love, Not Warcraft'.

Thankfully there's no chance of me going fat and spotty, i'm in the gym 3 mornings a week, play and train football 2 times a week and play on the weekend, Plus i'm ex amature boxer so keeping fit is quite simple.
