I got adsl a few month ago with the intention of buying Wow.

I never did.

I once played Kotor for an entire weekend...

Has playing Wow effected your life?
 
How, have WoW effected my life, hmm.
The game is addictive, and have ruined a lot of people's lifes (although I think they had no life before WoW anyway :p ) IF your a cassual gamer it aint that bad, you can play when you want, as long as you want...BUT as soon as you get involved with guilds and the social aspect of the game it can become a bit demanding, you have to arange your life around your playtime so that you can attend organised events with your e-friends. But guess all of the above is true in any online game, and not just relavent to WoW.
You make new friends, you commit yourself eventualy, raiding and instancing requires planning and you need to regard 10-40 other people that will wait on you...

But even playing for over 2 years, I still managed to pass my Phd in Germany with the highest possible marks, met my Girlfriend, played cricket for Germany, etc etc :D So you can have a real life uneffected by wow...

That was said after those two blizz employees were driving through the whole US with a flashdrive, waving it around as if it were a sword... tsk :D
I rather keep my wow life than have their so-called "life"
 
Once you are involved in a HL Guild, you have 2 options.

Or you dismiss your job
Or you divorce :)

I am actually kipping both ... difficult to manage everything when you raid 6 days a week.
 
Hmm, there is a guy with a signature on the wow forums that always makes me laugh and pretty much somes it up

"There is no real life, only AFK" :P
 
So I guess, I'm not going to play then... I have to manage a 7 days a week job, a girlfriend and 2 poker games a week. :(

I really want to kill monsters :(
 
try eve online. i had to suspend my account as it was ruining my AFK.
 
heh WoW stole my life for about a year or so.... One day I got hacked and tbh it was the best thing that ever happend to me... Blizz decided not to reimburse my way overpowered mage and i fiqured there is nowai in hell im gonna create another 70... Tried EVE... boring as **** after the first month... now I am less than a quarter of the gamer i used to be

But that will all change with the release of Crysis, Starcraft II, Spore, and some other amazing new titles which are coming out
