My 2 flatmates ar complete losers. All they do ALL day is sit next to each other and play that wanky game, World of Warcraft for hours on end. They don't speak. They occasionally eat. They never socialise and are constantly complaining about being tired despite not having done anything remotely physical.
We're also talking about not going out, not exercising, not talking, and spending money every month for the priviledge. I think if you defend this behaviour you either play this inane "game" yourself or are in need of a woman. I'm going out to get laid now..hope you enjoy your online fantasy sex with an Elfin Princess who isn't real.
I have to say that everyone I know who plays world of warcraft has no life. There are some guys in my calc class who play world of warcraft, they used to sit in the back of the class and talk about world of warcraft. Then they failed the first exam, now they sit in the front.
Na, I've never played it. There are plenty of other good games out there that I can play and not have to pay $15 a month. I still don't see anything wrong with it though, if they're willing to pay. People still have lives, even if they do base much of it upon a game.
Yes, they are stupid nerds. They are physically inept and are always ill because they spend most of their waking spare time in front of a computer pretending to fight dragons and hoards of orcs...BORING!
Yes I do need help. I need 2 flatmates that are not complete losers wasting every spare moment playing a fantasy game and not communicating with anyone unless they are also playing online.
Tha amusing thing about this whole situation is that both of them now suffer from physical ailments directly related to their lack of exercise....poor buggers.
It's no less normal than sitting in front of the television for 8 hours a day. At least WoW is interactive and they're not being brainwashed by the media day in and day out. Tell them to go to the park or they'll never get a girlfriend... elves don't count.
Best answer yet. I shall start robbing their crap immediately. They won't notice because they are too busy flying on unicorns and trying to get to level 70....BORING! What a couple of losers..
i play maybe an hour and a half on school days, and up to 4 hours on weekends when i have some more time on my hands.
im active, and probably in better shape than most of u people.
i wouldnt be saying that if i didnt sincerely mean it. not all WoW players are nerds with no life.
everything in life is bad if you overdo it, these nerd friends of yours need to realize that its okay to play WoW, its okay to enjoy it, but its not okay to let it take over your life. its just a goddamn game...
btw you sound more concerned than angry, i think you probably just leave them be and let them deteriorate, if youve seen the WoW episode of south park ull kno what i mean =P
Wow, never knew people would critisize a game this badly, it's a great game don't be a stereotype and say everyone that plays it has no life no job lives with their mom and is 40 years old. and to respond to your question, their addicted, give them some time or get the password's and bann em ;)
i agree with chuckaluck it really f**king pisses me of when my brother come and plays the computer for hours ond end but dont hate them for bieng addicted to a game. Most of my friends are addicted to xbox or cp all they say is lets play xbx or lets play cp and there so cautios they go about 1 hour before there mums get home comon we have to get off mum wil be home soon just dont give a shit they can be dickheads if they want to :):):):):):)
I hate world of war craft!!! i used to play conquer online, with my bf when i was younger like 3 years ago or sum thing. Then he switched o W.W, which completely decimated our relationship for about 1 year. WoW seems to completely take over people's lives, he used to get up at like 4 to do raids with his guild and stuff! WOW = rubbish if you take it too seriously.
All MMORPGs have the same result. They are all very addicting, I know this first hand. I play both Evercrack(Everquest) and World of Warcrack(World of Wacraft)...MMORPGs give a feeling euphoria while you play them. They contain an addictive trait that no other game can really match. And, simply because one plays WoW or EQ...it does not make them a loser. Hell...I play WoW, but I have a job...I play soccer...I play football...I have a social life....
i used to be addicted to world of warcrack (my nickname for that s#it game) then my friends told me to make a myspace. They also told me to go on AIM more often. After that they told me to meet em to do stuff actually social. Then to finally break the addiction of it my best friend whose a girl told me that she wanted to go out some time. They all told me they it was an intervention. Afterwards i thought my new GF would leave me but she was serious. Anyway, THAT is pretty much the only way to break the addiction.
WoW toally owns you k?! See you when you get home mate... call me sad once more you'll be sleeping with road kill, don't think i don't know what you do on your comp btw... i installed a little program allowing me to view all your files and internet cache... see you when you get home ;).
I don't blame you for wanting to kill your friends (or whatever flatmates are).
I was just at one of my best freind' houses today, and he was glued to his computer playing WoW. It was the boringest thing ever. And even worse is that he can never just play a game properly. He joined a private server that his friend owns, and he gets a bunch of free shit.
I'm a nerd myself. I work for my school. I am very much into Web Page design and that sort of stuff. Hell, my school even pays me for it, but at least I have a life. I go out with friends somewhat regularly. I have a girlfriend who i am obsessed with. I have a life.
Not to say that online gaming or any type of video games are bad. I have a Gamecube (I'm waiting for pre-modded Wiis to be available) and a PS2. When I'm bored and stuck home "babysitting" my sister and theres nothing to talk about with my friends over AIM, sure I play those. And I also play Call of Duty 2 sometimes with my freinds either via the internet or private networks.
I am 100%% against MMOs because, they don't even feel like games, they feel more like chores. Sure, its exciting for the first few days; you're leveling up quick and discovering lots of "cool" stuff. But then as leveling starts to take longer, and Quests/Enemys become repetitive (the NPC enemies in WoW are insanely repetitive) it gets boring. The biggest case of this is Runescape. Because in Runescape to earn good money, you cant do anything fun. You either have to mine, woodcut, or fish (for non-paying members anyway). I would know, I had a level 72 Woodcutter. But it got boring as fuck, and I quit.
Ok, so anyway, WoW is for lamers. Kidnap your friends and lock them in a room with some sleasy girls. Hopefully its not too late and you'll be able to convert them back to normal people.
My friends and I love WoW. We play often and have been guilty of having an all night gaming session or two, but we balance it out with other hobbies as well. Granted none of us are athletic%%u2026 WoW doesn%%u2019t run our lives. One of my friends is a great artist (got a scholarship for it) and another that makes the costumes for her collages drama department. So, is it normal to play a lot of World or Warcraft? Yes. Is it normal to fail a class because of it? No. I would say keep the Warcraft, but log off and do something else every now and then.
W.O.W If you wrote the letter "W" on both of your arse cheeks you'd be able to spell W.O.W Just about sums it up nicely. I have to go and shag some birds now.

It's mind numbing.

Sitting for 8 hours a day in front of a computer pretending to be Zorag Master Elf and chatting to your dwarf pal Dingdong The Mighty is NOT normal.
Thats more than a billion us dollars every year, not including the actual selling of the game.
Were talking about a computer game worth
$15 billion!
And it just keeps growing.
I think if you defend this behaviour you either play this inane "game" yourself or are in need of a woman.
I'm going out to get laid now..hope you enjoy your online fantasy sex with an Elfin Princess who isn't real.
Clowns.
They are physically inept and are always ill because they spend most of their waking spare time in front of a computer pretending to fight dragons and hoards of orcs...BORING!

Instead I have 2 geeks to bore me.
Ultimately though Corbin you're right..I shouldn't really give a care in the world for this nerdy behaviour.
I shall start robbing their crap immediately.
They won't notice because they are too busy flying on unicorns and trying to get to level 70....BORING!

Yes...I am concerned but as they don't really give a sh1t then I shouldn't be bothered either really.
I just thought life was for living, not for playing a game for 90%% of your free time.
You dont play it, do you?
i HATE people who sit around all fucking day playing video games. shit's lame
:):):):):):)
WoW is a good game, you're just the lazy fuck.

i think world of warcraft is good but i can't handle those losers doin nothing else.
So, is it normal to play a lot of World or Warcraft? Yes. Is it normal to fail a class because of it? No. I would say keep the Warcraft, but log off and do something else every now and then.
For $15 a month you lose you're life, any social status, any respect from social people and gain the respect of losers and dorks.
Is it really worth $15??
If you wrote the letter "W" on both of your arse cheeks you'd be able to spell W.O.W
Just about sums it up nicely.
