Temptation, MMORPG and the real world

Well over christmas I played warcraft an increasingly ammount as i’m off college dont have a job and my christmas shopping was complete, so I got down to some heavy MMORPG play. I have played the game since 2005 and I have a 70 rogue and 66 mage and loads of random leveled characters ranging between 10- 50. As i have increased the ammount of time I have put in playing my other character silvermoon which i mentioned in my other blogg i have also been playing my level 70 rogue doing pvp. At the moment in real life i have college exams coming up and no job which i seriously need, and while pvping for my 5th hour of the day, I thought why am i spending all this time on the computer killing other players to get a purple item, which when i think about it will only get replaced due to the expansion, the time i could be using to revise and get better grades, as I have university coming up in september of 2008. So I was thinking what if I was to delete my account as temptation to come back on would be to great of a deal, and then I saw something where you could sell your account, which made sense as I dont know why you see all these people in video’s deleting there characters when they could sell it well I been thinking about it and decided not to even though I would be more focused on studies and getting a job plus I would get money from it, but I stuck to my decision, what ever I decided I think in the summer when I’m off for an insane holiday of 4 months I could pick back up on it with a new account or even a different game, well anyway thats my thoughts for now. read more

Start of things to come

After playing wow for nearly 2 years I have always believed its the players what make this game what it is today. Currently i’m playing the game with a level 27 blood elf paladin named sílvermoon on the server chrommagus, I have a level 70 rogue which is taking a holiday at the moment . After doing pvp for a while, i wanted a new class to play with, Paladin instantly sprung to mind, I have always wanted to play one and the fact that wow players who dont play paladin generally hate them, this giving me drive to level one even more. So after some deep thought, a pot noodle and a bottle of budweiser, i decided to do it, this added on to my already busy schedule of college, girlfriend, social, and work when i get a job, which should be soon. read more
