I'll start by stating the following:
-I'm 29
-I'm unemployed
-I'm a returning college student
-I love playing WoW

That's the situation. Deal with it.


With that said, I can honestly say that my PvP (player vs. player) skills increase exponentially with my alcohol consumption.

Case in point:
I decide, after a few NB Mighty Arrow's and some of my own Belgian Strong ales, that I'll just peruse the ol' WoW arena, and see what's happening. I decide to join Tol Barad (a PvP battleground) for ****s & giggles. With TB being the most mis-balanced battleground in the history of WoW, I find that my skills and reaction times in said battleground are above & beyond my average levels during sobriety. So much so, that we wind up winning said battleground, which is almost unheard of considering this battleground is undeniably mis-balanced in favor of the side who defends it.

Long story short: alcohol + mindless video games + mild insomnia = uncanny gaming skills. Take note, kids.
 
Nice! I dropped WoW a while back due to my complete and utter addiction. Now I just drink and talk sh!t online... just as addictive... :D
 
Geez...you really do need to be drunk to place this I guess. On the extremely lucky occasion I'm able to play video games (wife and 8 month baby), I play so that I DON'T have to be social.

I have lost many friends to WOW...it is unfortunate.
 
I'll have to remember to try that when Star Wars: The Old Republic comes out in September of this year. I played the first Star Wars MMO and enjoyed it, perhaps a bit too much.
 
Its the only way to play. I play a few hours a week. Never got too addicted to it. Its more like a channel on tv for me than a real video game. I'm just an AH whore mainly gotta make that dolla holla.
 
Could never get into it. I tried it for about 15 minutes, and they wanted me to pick flowers or some ****. I don't have that kind of patience.

If that's what you like man, have at it. Nothin wrong with it!

+1

BTW Warcraft is the vaginal cancer of the MMO genre . . . . May the person who developed it burn in hell for 2 eternities while being ass raped with the razor wire wraped c*ck of Ron Jeromy.

Yeah nothing like gettin home from work and logging into an online job. KNOCK yourself out. I will stick with 1st and 3rd killing.
 
When I was single that was my entire social life, my coworkers were online, and a few other friends and a roommate as well. I miss it sometimes but I think married life and WoW don't fit. Also it got super boring after the Burning Crusade came out. I did a trial run of the expansion after that but couldn't stick with it.
So my level 70 shadowcloth armor (can't remember the name of the set, but it returned health to you when you did shadow damage) affliction spec'ed Orc Warlock and kind of crappy 70 Troll Shaman, and 67 hunter, and 50-something warrior, and 30 something paladin, and 30 something mage all just sit waiting for me to come back.

Or ebay... not sure about now but people used to buy accounts who where too lazy to level them esp if they have PHAT lootz.

Meh. I think the leveling got to be so much easier that most of the people who are wanting to play end-game toons can get there in no time.

Plus, the Goblin starting area is da SHNIZITZ! We're having all kinds of fun with a little group of Goblins.

My interest in WoW waxes and wanes with the seasons. Right now I squeeze it in between work and hauling kids around their activities, and Red Wings Games. Come summer, I will have too many hobby things going on to really give it much time.

If I didn't have a Teamspeak server running with my friends on it all the time I couldn't care less about it, but getting on with them in the evening is better than 92.4% of what's on TV.
 
Yep. Wow was really fun. I played from 06-07. I had a fun time and pwned some noobs. Back in the day me and my friends would just smoke weed and play WoW all the time.
 
Yeah, WoW is way more fun when drinking. I don't even play much anymore without a homebrew beside me.
 
Fridays is drunken raid night...

Sadly my guild is comprised of a 14 year old guild master and several pre-20's. The few people my age not only understand why I pound a few while raiding, but they usually join in on their end as well.

Hence, we are one of the top progression guilds on our server. :rockin:
 
Try playing EVE online after a few beers. EVE dose not have the 14 year old anti-social jack offs like WoW has. We have the 40 Year old anti-social jack offs and there only goal in game is to make yours a living hell. 2000+ Players in 1 big fight. Soooo much fun after a few beers.

EvE online scamming is not a problem, Its a feature.
