Wow is not a game that just attracts kids living in their parent's basement. It has people from all walks of life. People whom you never imagine playing a game, much less use a computer... are playing this game.
The guild I'm in for example has a huge variety of people. A lot of married couples (My wife actually got me playing the game), a lot of military people (and I do mean a lot), guys and girls from all walks of life, retired people, and it's rumored we possibly have a syndicate cartoonist amongst our ranks (rather doubt it though). Surprisingly there's very few if any kids in the guild. I suspect the average age for members of the guild is in the 30's.
Look around you, you'd be surprised at who you find plays this game.
