    Guild wars... What I ever did was made a character and made her wear nothing but undies and let her dance in front of a sitting guy character all day.

    Break out from your mental box.
    I found better company. Iced chocolate with coffee jelly, anyone?

    Have to agree. Never saw the appeal of them.

    Although I like the new LOTR games strategy. The game itself is £1/$1. After all they make their money from the subscription fees. Great idea!

    $15/month * 12 months * 8,500,000 subscribers = $1,530,000,000

    Burning Crusade: $40 * 8,500,000 subscribers = $340,000,000

    Original WoW Cost: $50 * 8,500,000 subscribers = $425,000,000


    Server's Cost: A LOT MORE than priceless.

    My $0.02...

    I play WoW and enjoy it a lot. I also have a life, a fulltime job, other hobbies, and a girlfriend.
    I do not have to pay for a subscription, but when I was paying for it, I had no problem in doing so.

    I levelled to 60 and right afterwards purchased The Burning Crusade update.

    ... yeah...

    Re: Reasons why you don't play wow

    My $0.001...

    I played WoW and thought I enjoyed it a lot. I also had no life, a part time job, no other hobbies, and definitely no girlfriend.
    I had to pay for a subscription, and when I was paying for it, I saw my funds withering away.

    I levelled to 60 VERY slowly and right after, saw how terrible the game was. I tried to become involved in a guild, but experienced too much frustration with the guild and its members. I fought with them numerous times and just quit the guild one day. I stopped playing and thought that maybe I could try again when burning crusade was released, but I decided against this. I cancelled my account and uninstalled the game. I am really glad I decided to quit WoW. I am so much happier now that I have escaped the addiction. Often times, I would become really depressed while playing WoW. It was severely harming my mental health. I didn't want to blame WoW because it was my entire life. But now I see clearly that the rain is gone!

    I don't get why people play games so much? I prefer to be the one making the games I get more satisfaction out of completing a program than getting to level 100 on some RPG or something!

    Playing a game and "completing a program" are not mutually exclusive unless you're severely disabled.
