No Pokah

I guess I started the boycott too early! I haven't played any online poker since last week. What have I been doing with all my spare time?

wow

Despite all the warnings from people who obviously know better and against my better judgment, I started playing World of Warcraft. It's not a horrible time to start as there is renewed interest in the game from longtime players because of the first expansion release in two years.

It does seem to be a huge time sucker of a game, although not as bad as the horror stories I have been hearing about EverQuest.

So far nothing from the government about trying to stop me from playing World of Warcraft, but I expect something in the near future.

Give it time. The further you get into to WoW the tougher it gets to leave. Once you get up into the higher levels some of the quests take several hours to complete and you cannot leave during the quest (well you can, but not if you want people to group with you regularly). The only way for it not to become Warcrack is to quit now;)

Or don't. It's a great game.

Let me know when you get to L30. That's when I stopped playing, and left a rather nice Rogue lying around.

Oh my God NoooO!! Uninstall WoW before it's too late! I've gone cold turkey on WoW since December. I was hooked on it big time and found myself getting into uber raiding guilds and spending every last minute on that game. Stop now. Take it from a level 60 Undead Mage and a level 60 Dwarf Rogue - stop now or you will lose your life to it! Oh the horror!!!

MMORPGs are the devil.

Do. Not. Get. Sucked. In.

Otherwise they are great fun.

Everytime you sell a weapon in that game, the money is used to fund terrorist organizations.

I played it for like four hours, and found it repetitive and boring. Not going to play it again.

No wonder I haven't seen you in the girlie chat! Ugh, another WoW victim.
