Well, I was one of those people who criticized WoW players for being crack addicts... was. A friend of mine here got me a guest pass, and I got started Saturday. I cracked out like a som' bitch and two hobizzles. I got started at 9PM and quit at 9AM. Then I slept for three hours and away I went. My lvl 13 Nightelf Rogue is pretty nice. I'm in Drunken Superheroes with a few friends from my Uni. and Mercer Uni.
It's awesome to finally find a game that my school's network admins (I live in a dorm) haven't decided to neuter. They killed BF1942, UT2k4, and RtCW (amongst others, I'm sure) and bandwidth in general (also blocked most P2P somehow). They did so for several reasons. One being that people on the network had loads of viruses and crashed the network, even though their use policy states you MUST have an AV program and they offer you Norton for free. Second is that people felt it necessary to hook their personal servers up to the network and host online games. And last but not least, the P2P. There was a case where a student in 50 days managed to use a whopping 39 terabytes of bandwidth. Between folding@home, SETI, DC++, and Ares, he racked up some serious bandwidth. He ended up burning most of the stuff he got off DC++ to DVDs, but had several 100 DVD spindles in his room filled with movies, games, music, etc.
