Anyone experiance anything like removed link

Doesn't have to be warcraft related...


I'll admit I was somewhat addicted to this game, but I proved to my friends and family that I could stop playing, and I never let my playing affect my real life stuff....

As for that guy? The game is fun, but to ignore your child? and to play while your wife's in labour? that's f$#@ed up....

EDIT: Part 2 removed link

Lol, I bet he was thinking the whole time "ROFL n00b, you don't need the CD's to play"

Edited by Luvian: I decided to remove the links to the World of Warcraft addiction episode of the Tyra Banks show hosted on youtube, because that's piracy.

I knew a guy on another forum who dropped out of high school to play more WoW.

Whoa, that's scary.

I stopped playing for my exams, and if required I could stop playing again. But that fact is...it's fun, so I'm playing the expansion.

When it starts to feel like a chore, that's when I stop playing ;)

I'm level 66, BITCHES!!!

*stands up* Hi I'm Lord of alcohol and I'm.....level 66 [img]tongue.gif[/img] Grats TL, cant wait to start raiding again! Oh and the guy is on the Kael thes server.

Yeah I saw this on the main forums yesterday. God Tyra is retarded, lol. I can't stand to watch her show man - even when nothing else is on. And it airs on like two channels every day.

She 's says something like "Well some people go out and spend too much time with their friends but this isn't even real and it's a computer" (the 'doctor' in the background making encouraging faces). It is real. As real as a movie or a book is real. But this book is one that is being experienced by thousands at the same time; an MMO. So it is more social than a book and more interactive than a movie. Which leads to it being more immersive.

I bet he's still playing since you don't need the CD's to start the game. Even if he uninstalled it you can download it online using the trial client, lol. Yeah, I bet he was all "LOL nubz ftl!". The psychologist is so clueless also. I expected a hug sessison and "special time" next.

He began playing due to a fear of SIDS? Wtf? Getting kinda deep in the BS.

I'd have been like "Dude, she porked up." I mean I wouldn't go crawl in bed with her, either, so I sympathize with him. Of course, he's no prize or trophy either -- he's got a bit of that inbred look.

And yes Tyra is pretty stupid. I like ANTM a lot, but her other show is just all full of stupidity. Dumb girl shoulda stuck to modelling.

Aye, she should have stuck with what she knows - makeup and hair. I personally don't think she has the most attractive face either for a model...looks like a wild hill woman sometimes. I saw a picture of her somewhere (I think it was Entertainment Tonight) without makeup and her hair was all messed and she looked like she escaped from the zoo.

The level of stupidity there isn't worth even humoring. She knows nothing about hosting or even talking to "normal" people. I always get the impression she just watched alot of Oprah in the 90's and worked from there. At least Oprah (I hope) would ask some basic questions beforehand and done her research (or get it done for her either way).

I have no problem with tackling an addiction to a game as a segment for her show, but she needs to check beforehand if this is slightly different than alcohol or drugs and find out how CD's work nowadays before she starts "helping" people.

She did need to check it out. Her ignorance of her subject gave the whole thing zero credibility. For many people that fact that they ARE interracting with REAL PEOPLE is the hook. Her assertion that it was "just a computer" was farcical, and will probably result in a lack of help for people who need it.

This show is so boring, I had to force myself to watch more than the first 30 seconds. It took 3 tries before I could do it. How can people watch this voluntarily?
