[MinnaCaroline]

Hello My Name is MinnaCaroline and I'm not an addict but I have a very good friend who is...

*Glances and then stares at Repaxan*

Anyone else want to come forward?

[Isles of Nixon]

HA!!!! I was just about to make the same thread! Hello my name is Isles of Nixon and I have never play WoW but I feel that with all the talk on the forums about it, I'm turning into an addict. Please help me! What are the ten steps?

[MinnaCaroline]

Welcome to WoW Anonymous Isles of Nixon and the first step is coming here and admitting that you are an addict.

2: you believe in a power higher than yourself that can help you overcome your addiction.
3: make a list of all the people you have ignored in focusing your entire life on this addiction.
4: PM each person you have actively neglected and apologize...

More to come later.

[SovietPrussia]

well I play WoW, but I can't say I'm an addict. I still play other games, I still go outside, I still have a good social life, and I play for about an hour or two a day.

Oh, and unlike Repaxan I don't post WoW stuff when my server is down.

[repaxan]

Hey... was this really necessary?!?

[Isles of Nixon]

Absolutely! Repaxan, every post is about WoW, it's driving us crazy! (All in good fun of course)

[Anime Daisuki]

ah sorry for the noob question... what's WoW? World of Warcrafts?

[Isles of Nixon]

It's World of Warcraft. It's a computer game that originated from the WarCraft game from about ten years ago and it's all that Repaxan posts about!

[repaxan]

Games:


Warcraft: Orcs and Humans

Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness
Warcraft II: Beyond the Dark Portal
Warcraft II: Battle.net Edition

Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos
Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne

World of Warcraft

Repaxan the first step is admitting you are an addict!!! Come on... lets hear it...

[SovietPrussia]

say it

[repaxan]

Addict

[SovietPrussia]

Now the next step is to play 48 hours of WoW

[repaxan]

PLAY

*goes to play WoW*

oh, and in about 7 hours I will be at the airport.

[Isles of Nixon]

Well Repaxan, enjoy NYC and admit your addiction and start to work to end this horrible addiction.

[Arotianis]

I used to play WoW and it was fun for a while but eventually I just got bored. If you wish to be forcibly broken of your addiction here are the ten steps:

1. Admit you have a problem
2. Get a friend to delete all your characters and cancel your account
3. Shock
4. Denial
5. Anger
6. Grief
7. Acceptance
8. ???
9. Profit
10. Order Vanguard

[SovietPrussia]

since you went ahead and played 48 hours, you fail the step.

Anyway, you don't have to stop, just play less. Limit yourself.

( Something tells me that if Repaxan stops WoW, he'll start on another MMO. )

[repaxan]

I'm staving off my WoW hangover for now by reading WoWWiki and Allakhazam and Thottbot and etc.

[SovietPrussia]

that's no better, but seriously, it's all right to play WoW, but time yourself. Come here when you're not playing.

[repaxan]

I'm not playing right now.

[Dark Rebels]

that's why I'm not on 10000 islands much because I'm a sort of addict to it i play it everyday for at least an hour

WOW ROCKS

[SovietPrussia]

at least an hour?


I play more than that

[Dark Rebels]

that's at the very minimum the maximan is 7 hours

a day

usually about 4 hours a day

[SovietPrussia]

ok

[repaxan]

You mean Terenas, not teranus.

My realm is Cenarius.

(Cannot add to friends list, will try when I get to a computer that has WoW. )

[Dark Rebels]

yeah ok

[SovietPrussia]

Terenas here.

Farquadinus, lvl 21 Human Warrior

Repaxan, when you get back, get to lvl 19 and do warsong gulch. Best time to do it at low levels

[Lichto]

I didn't want to label myself, but I can't help it. I'm going through withdrawl.

It was fun while I played, but now that I've been sober for 3 months, I can safely say that I'm cured, and have no inclination to play. I'd like to see a few of the post-Gruul raids, and I'd REALLY like to see a guild down Illidan, but I think that won't happen.

The real test will be when WotLK comes out...I don't know if I'll have the self-restraint to not buy it and get to lvl 80...

[SovietPrussia]

well that's in about a year's time.

[Lichto]

Still...Blizzard isn't deleting accounts that are closed, and if they don't start before the new xpac, I might be tempted to heal my way to 80, and go kill Arthas. Or at least, heal the people who are killing Arthas.
