I guess I still just have some pent up issues about this game and how it's seemingly stolen everything I held dear in my life from me, relationships, family, friendships, all of which were healthy, which quickly became deprioritized by people addicted to this game, instead of hanging out, movie nights, gettogethers, in person interaction, we're left as secondary objectives in their real life quest logs.

I just wish I could get my friends back sometimes.

the fact that this thread is 75 pages long should be very telling about how much of a priority it is to some people, that it's important enough to discuss in detail with your peers, because misery loves company.

Not trying to sound holier than thou, I'm sorry if I do. You all may have different perceptions on the value of your time and how that time is spent, but my priority is reality based activities and friendships. Because of that, I'm not raider material now. Thus the game lost it's appeal to me, because the end game is all about raiding and little else.
It's funny how I was obsessed with the game like you were and played it for 40 hours a week for years, yet I came away with good memories, not bad. Yeah I missed out on a lot during those years but when I was having fun in WoW, I was having fun in WoW, and I don't regret it at all. I still miss it actually. If I were single I would still be playing it without a doubt.
