    People who say stuff like that obviously have no self-control. ANYTHING can be addicting if you can't control yourself. It's a game and nothing more, so you gotta treat it like one. Enjoy stuff in moderation!

    EDIT: LOL at the youtube video, someone I knew was exactly like that guy ^^

    And I looked at that wow detox site. God some people...

    those guys who get addicted to wow are always the fucking sadcase raiders, they play a different game effectively. They cannot reach the goals blizzard sets without devoting insane hours.

    I never heard of an addicted wow pvp'er, probably because it gets annoying after 2 hours. Its more intense fun, but more stressful aswell i feel.

    But i suppose when you have 8million subscribers, you will be taking in a lot of people with addictive tendancies. If it wasn't wow, they would be hung up on internet poker or something.

    wow isnt really addictive like drugs, but ofc its like counterstrike for some ppl (or ko too ofc) they want to be the best, and to be the best you have to play it non stop..

    no more addictive than ko, if anything ko is more addictive plus takes more time to get good i.e items lvls etc. wow is so easy to lvl up aswell which makes it les adictive in my eyes. apart from the first 2-3month when i was totaly hooked i found the game boring in the end and even all the friends id made while playing wasnt enough for me to stay.

    WoW is boring as hell. I don't know why people are so addicted to it. Unless you have friends in real life or ingame to play with, you will be a very lonely person. This game is designed for players to not be dependent on parties when lvling. So most of the quest ppl usually do it on their own. Joining a good guild is impossible if you don't have contacts. Most of the great gear comes from bosses that require 40 ppl to kill. And only good guild are able to kill them. Even when you join a good guild, this is how your gaming life is gonna be: 3-4 hours a night helping them kill boss, and during your day you are pretty by yourself. And it sometimes it takes months for you get one piece of gear you want.

    yea, I know how you feel. I was given a lvl 60 char by my friends and even got into a decent guild. Quit after 2 months cause it was boring as hell...other than boss killing I'm pretty much alone all day long...lol--Even PvPing is tough cause fags comes in with gearout guild members and you get pwned every single game you play.
