Shared on Tue, 11/23/2010 - 14:37So i've been a recovering WorldofWarcraft addict for almost three years now. It was just a passing memory. Then yesterday in the inbox of my e-mail I see "Noreplyblizzardentertainment" There it was, the reactivate your account buy more crack e-mail. I opened it, my fingers twitched, the sounds and images of Azeroth came flying back through my brain. I went to the Battlenet page, logged in and just sat infront of my monitor looking at the button to reactivate my account. I contemplated the thought of firing back up my account getting just one more taste , just one more . It wouldnt be like last time. There wouldnt be any rush for the level cap, no looking for the right gear to start raiding, not tolerating guild applications to get in with the cool kids to get the pretty purple gear.
Then right out of the sky reality smacked me in the face . Like a brick flying across the room. Steve, you moron, you'll do just what you said you'd never do. You'll role a Horde toon, build it to 80, 90, 100. Get the gear and blow your life trying to get into that L33t guld that'll get you the pretty purple sparkly things. You'll spend countless hours waiting for a raid spot to open up. Setting infront of your computer waiting inline with other mothers, fathers , sosn, and daughters to fight for the precious. I stopped, at that point , turned off my PC and sat down infront of my TV.
After about twenty minutes of thinking it finally hit my dumbass. It's the same Worldofcrap I left three years ago. It's just wrapped up in a new shiney package. I've finally can say i'm cured . The addiction is over. Azeroth is dead. Ha...Blizzard, you bastards I won the big raid....I didnt resubscribe. For all you people wondering what life is like after Worldofwarcrap. It's filled with nights hanging out with your friends , passing football with the kids, and gunning down Timmy with PPC. There is life after MMO's and I'm here to tell the story!
