#1 How long have you been playing?

#2 Do you want to quit?

#3 Do you have any other responsibilities in life? (wife,gf,job,kids,school,parents,etc).

I played WoW from the release date hardcore for about 4-5 months-ish. It's extremely entertaining and highly addictive. I only quit because I basically was forced to. I moved in with my gf, and the internet connection here was too unstable for me to play well. Also, my gf may have killed me/thrown me out if I had played as much as I did before. Looking back I don't regret the time I spent on the game, it was surpsingly fulfilling and a great social experience if you get into a nice guild. However, I also don't regret quitting one bit either.

A friend of a friend of mine that plays WoW has a wife, kids and a fulltime job. He plays a normal WoW week of 8 billion hours as well (he's very active in a raiding guild). I'm just wondering how long he can keep that up. I couldn't imagine playing WoW with any other major responsibilities.

#2 Many times. The game is played with real people who bring real problems and drama to the game. It get aggrovating arguing over loot at 2 AM.

#3 Yes I have other responsibilities in life. I am happily married, teach elementary school, have an active social life, and grind STT's during the summer.


It takes balance.
