Wow, people talk about WoW like they talk about cigarettes, WoW is not a good game, not a single MMORPG is, as for your age segments discussion Borealis7, I would NEVER let a kids under 10 years old play a game like WoW, they really have much better things to do (and much better games to play) at that age. Don't you guys get tired of needing to spend 200 hours just to get a level 70 character? Go play action RPGs instead, in Diablo II, for example, by the time you finish Nightmare (with minimal grinding, just beating the regular quests) you can have a level 60 character and you can play in parties with friends for the social aspect.
Why do people like RPGs with NO story, no INVOLVEMENT, PURE grinding and that requires endless amounts of time, I know I shouldn't be judging people's tastes in videogames but seriously this whole MMORPG thing is something that I just can't understand, the only explanation I can find is the addiction aspect.

That's WoW's biggest problem, there's very little to do at the level cap. That's the problem with Blizzard's philosophy of telling their players what to do and how to play the game, rather than having it be more openended. If you want a scripted entertainment experience, watch a movie...
The journey 1-70 is fantastic. Once there, WoW becomes a treadmill and I got sick of it.

I used to be an end game raider 2 years ago before I quit (the first time) and enjoyed that. Now, I pretty much only PvP (BGs and Arenas). I really enjoy playing different combos of arena teams. I think it's incredibly fun to have the gates open and then be forced to decide what the enemy team is, what their specs are, then who the target is, and attack all within a few seconds. Sure, after a bit you get pretty good/quick at it, but I still rather enjoy it.

Yeah, it was the PvP that kept me interested in the game long after I got tired of what little else it had to offer. I just wish you didn't have to suffer through PvE content to get fully geared for PvP. Gold for gems and enchants, rep for other various enchants, trade skill grinding for various BoP things, not to mention the BG grind you have to do every new arena season. It takes longer to gear a toon up for PvP than it does to get them to 70 in the first place.
Now I play my xbox if I want PvP. It's a lot less fun or involving, but at least it doesn't feel like a second job.
