Thread: World of Warcraft (and Quitters!)

Seeming as WoW is the most popular MMORPG today, I just was wondering how many people here are playing or have quit from the game...

I myself quit about 18 months ago... long story cut short, I live in Australia, I joined up while with work in Europe and ended up buying the european version of the game, meaning when i got back to Australia, i had to get up at 2am to do Raids and what not... so i ended up quitting the game (70 holy pally, 70 shadowpriest, 54 hunter)... a few months later i saw my sister playing and got back into the game, with the US version and ended up leveling a 70 lock... where i eventually got bored of the continual grinds and such, and quit the game permanently... Only played WOTLK for a couple of hours, when a mate of mine left his computer at work and asked me to level his character...

Anyways, enough about me, whats your story?

I started playing it in closed beta and continued playing it through the first four months it was live. I quit because it just got boring, plus the raiding sucked, was too repetitive without enough diverse high end content.

Had to quit as it was interfering with school and sleep. I still nostalgia..

I had a 70 holy priest when not pvp, shadow in pvp. I liked it, but it's been 3 years. I'll probably never go back do to high (possibly subjective) play-time demand.

I quit when they started catering to the noobs letting everyone buy high end gear from vendors. By the time wrath hit the game was complete garbage.

I chose not to get my life tied up in WoW, it is an addicting game and I am not into that type of Genre anyways!

wasted 2 years of my life in wow ! but luckly i got bored !

10 years of EQ and a few doing wow.. I play occasionally but basically it interfered with life in general .

i have played some mmorpgs but not wow
i dont like the graphics , the endless pve , the lack of pvp, and that there is a lot of kids playing that game (and i mean 10-13 years old ones xD)

Played WoW for 5 years from release date, but i did quit recently after it was taking over my life. Thanks god i got married and my wife kicked my ass. Since i had to choose between her or the game. She gave me a chance to quit my self or control the hours of play for 2 years, but i failed :laugh:

Before graduating from the university, i had the guts to quit and move on in life. Did not play for about 10 months now and i feel that i never even played the game.

It was great but that's in the past, now i got more responsibilities in life, i want to have a successful career and a happy family.
