i still have a life,,, still go out most weekends,,, stil shower... still do the family thing most nites... still read... still watch tv.... but still play wow over 30 hours a week

[Granto]

i fail at life, but you spend 30 hours a week on a videogame?

yes, you're right, i'm wrong, don't go cut yourself, please, go kill yourself.

[Corolla_Gurl]

please go grow up

[Granto]

i should go growup and play videogames like a successful adult?

okay.

[Corolla_Gurl]

i never said to play video games noob L2Read

[Granto]

lol nub you really do have the wow player thing going on.

the best way to quit is to sell your account.

you get money (good) and you can't play (good).

then pickup something that dosen't require as much of your time, like, whatever.

[Corolla_Gurl]

whatever

[Klutch]

Give the account to me.

I'll change password etc, that way you don't get to play it http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif


Nah in all seriousness...Why do you want to?
Unless it's getting in the way of work/social life i don't think you should need to.

[Gilly]

that south park episode revolving around WOW was so fkn funny

[DRFTPG]

uninstall and walk away is the best

[GAKI86]

do u also work 30 hours a week?

wouldve been good for a second job http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Sound's like your getting bored of the game.

Try something new, play on a new server and level a new character. Try to PvP instead of PvE, do something new and fun.

[Corolla_Gurl]

Zomg i hate lvling...... i just wanna raid ..... oh and kill HORDE http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

Ever been horde?

Come level a horde on my server :]

I found raiding gets boring, as your doing the same thing over and over.
I prefer PvP, as it's always something new.

Mind shutting up? you havent said ANYTHING in this thread that is constructive.

[Gilly]

man wow sounds scary i've heard of a few "addiction" stories. is it a really good game. pardon my ignorance but what do you do?

the only guide i have is that south park episode http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/laugh.gif

i hurt my foot and couldn't work for a week, i got hooked on myspace something chronic.

Tam came home and i was like

Me: "hey you home for lunch?"

Tam: "you serious? its like 5 in the arvo"

Me: "i haven't been on here all day"

Tam: "you were wearing that when you got of bed this morning"

Me: "oh"

Tam "nerd"

PWNED again......

[Klutch]

man wow sounds scary i've heard of a few "addiction" stories. is it a really good game. pardon my ignorance but what do you do?[/b]
You level.
Get armour/weapons.

Then once you reach the level cap, you can either

A ) Fight NPC's with 40(or 25) people to get extremely good gear.
B ) Fight Other people, to get extremely good gear.

The ebtter gear, the more you dominate and fuck shit up.

You also have good times with friends and stuff, its a VERY social game.
Tbh, if you have no friends...i would have quit WoW already

[Corolla_Gurl]

also you can show off your epeen like me "im in the best guild on our server"
but yeah last month sinc BC release has gone down hill big time... so many people have game quit

[GAKI86]

for the love of god!!

this thread is meant to be discussed of how you are goin to quit!!!

dont talk about the damn game!!!

POUR LOTS OF HONEY ON YOUR PC OR SOMETHING!!

[Klutch]

PvP is still fun.
I heard PvE has rather gone downhill, but i wouldn't know http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

[Corolla_Gurl]

oh noe cant do that i need my pc for work

[Corolla_Gurl]

anyway i gotta hit the hay... gotta get up early. nite

[ke70dave]

just play something else for a while, buy a steering wheel and play LFS for a while, that should cure it

dont get me wrong i like computer games, mostly shooting games, dont mind a bit of CS or call of duty

but hooolllyyy doolllyy WOW is soo boring. i tried "guildwars" for a while, kinda simliar but free to play once youve bought the game. ark it was the most boring game ever. so you get to level 60 or whatever? then what? just keep randomly walking around killing stuff? yeah sounds crap http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/blink.gif

have i managed to talk you out of it yet?

if not

WOW IS CRAP, get out more, thats 30hrs a week more you can spend with
your family/car/girlfriend/ANYHTING BUT WOW

work yet?

im really liking that pouring honey idea, or maybe try water cooling your pc....with a sprinkler inside your PC that should stop it working for a while,

and wow being a social game? hmm being "social" involves actually talking to people face to face...i could be wrong though

is it working yet?

if not i got nothin http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

Coming from someone who has played both WoW and guildwars...
I hated guildwars.

and wow being a social game? hmm being "social" involves actually talking to people face to face...i could be wrong though

Your saying talking to friends on MSN isn't social?
Your talking, and i would assume that would still be a social encounter.

I have fun with friends in WoW, wether we run around and kill other players or just muck about with each other. It's all in fun http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif

WoW is an INCREDIBLY boring game without friends though...

If you knew anything about WoW you would realise that is a load of shit.

I, and half the server went on a manhunt for this dude.
Nearly everyone from WoW teased the living shit out of him, let me find a pic.

http://img487.imageshack.us/img487/8849/untitledpj3ds5.th.png (http://img487.imageshack.us/my.php?image=untitledpj3ds5.png)

It was his decision to drop out of school.
He's become violent? Isn't that part of being a teenager?
He started swearing more?
Hormones, anyone?

He picked up american accent? HAHAHHAHAH
It's just like the hoon things, they blow everything WAY out of context.

You realise the "hoon" stuff are load of crap. Because you are interested in cars, so you know what REALLY goes on.

I'm interested in gaming, and WoW, so i know what happens and what really goes on.

To you, you will be blind to it. As i would be blind to the hoon bullshit if i didnt like cars.

[eastcoastdrifter]

Im not Blind~~~its a fact.

IDA and Video Game Addiction are real psychological conditions I had to do reasearch on this Shit for school once

here is a Wiki Take of it
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_addiction

There isnt a problem Playing Video Games but when you start to think and feel that its the only thing you want to do and start shut out the Real World~~~then it becomes a problem

[Klutch]

You tottaly missed my point.

That ACA report was a load of bullshit. As is 90% of ACA reports. They blow everything way out the window.

Yes, there is game/internet/technology addiction.
BUT, it's not like smoking or drugs. You CAN go without, and you can quit MUCH MUCH easier.


Also, in that ACA report. The mother goes on about how her son is addicted and she doesn't know what to do.
The son doesn't work.
He's using her credit card.

Notice something? She could just cancel it and stop it from being paid.\

Edit: Going to sleep, will answer in morning.

For you maybe/// but for Many its not that easy for some people its the only place where they think they can get a Identity, somewhere they can find "freedom" from there poor lifes or even get the chance they can socialize with others which is OK but it can have great psychological draw backs which can cause all the the above positives to turn into a negative in a real bad way

1. Alliance is for little kids... Sorry but it's the truth.

2. BE's are a disgrace to the horde

3. If you make a character because it is "cute", you deserve to die...

Leaving that behind, I quit WoW by simply letting my subscription run out and using my 30 dollars to go on a date. WOOOOOOOO

Want a simple answer to get over WoW? Let the subscription run out, and sign up for and install Second Life. Its free (don't have to pay, what is it, $30 a month), easy to play (like the Sims on steroids), fully online, and real people play it, and you can talk to them (normally, not organising quests or whatever it is you do on WoW http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/tongue.gif )

Hmm...and when ice starts to take its toll on your body, you'll probably have to turn to professional gambling, or maybe that sex addiction. It's a vicious cycle.

If you got an extremely well geared character, it can be sold for $1k, give or take a few depending on the Race, Class, Server, and repuation/gear.
