Who's with me? This can be the thread to start the therapy. I've watched the South Park episode and read some NG posts about how other people handle their addictions. I'm only into my 2nd month, but I've become unproductive, playing half-days, longer than my work-week mostly. I say goodbye to my gnome warlock and alt characters Oct 4th. Let the healing begin.

I will offer my characters' goods and equipment up to anyone who wants it. I was Smarkee on server Proudmoore, but now I'm Jeremy on planet Earth.

Oh, btw, nice to see Newgrounds again, and not the WoW wiki site.

Googled.

I can't believe there's actually a website for that.

So are you just deleting it or are you throwing away the disc too?

It's weird I can't get addicted to WoW no matter what...

It's not religion which will destroy us, be the root of social discomfort and cause conflict but misinterpretation.

What level are your characters?

I deleted mine and regret it, I was thinking about buying another via paypal, I've made a level 70 before, two infact, and I can't be bothered to do it again.

You raise a good point. One step at a time. Thanks Sarcasm for the link.

I have a lvl 33 gnome warlock, a lvl 14 maxed tailor, and a lvl 14 leatherworker and a couple lvl 5s. I created the alts to lvl skills and trade between them. I also started alts for the purpose of holding more items in their inventory for later use when my main character's bank and inventory was full. This was why I lvled so slowly, I focused on multiple characters.

Ya, that game is a disease. People get so caught up with their e-life/rank, that they forget nobody gives a shit outside of the game, and that nobody knows who you are anyway.

Go for it nigguh.

I remember WoW II: Tides of Darkness, it wasn't a MMORPG back then but a strategy game.

I once downloaded the 14-day trial and got really addicted right away. I'd play 12 hours a day every single day but after like 2 days I realized this game sucked and quit playing.

I can't afford WoW.

There is a war going on in you're mind. People and ideas all competing for you're thoughts. And if you're thinking, you're winning.

This is why WoW fans digust me. When they actually are forced to rengage REAL LIFE, well, I must admit, it's pretty comical.
Seriously people, it's a FUCKING GAME. It's like quitting Newgrounds, you don't even need to be high.

only 2 more days. I had the trial account I plaued it days on end for the first two days I had it. Then I just got sick of it and stopped playing. I guess the best thing to do is to get it off your mind for the next two days.

And so Jeremy valianty fought against the tight grip of the WoW. He failed, as so many others have before him. For the grip of the WoW is much too powerful.

Hey.

Im 19 years old, playing since the US closed beta. I think I might have around 300 days played on all my characters total, which kinda freaks me out.

I'm thinking about quitting, but I really don't have any ideas what to do with my life after I do that. I have absolutely NO SOCIAL LIFE, no friends, no gf, I lost contact with my family, noone to comeback to. I gained 30 kilos since I started playing, I look and feel like crap.

help?
