Incoming /. Effect!

If your significant other complains that you play too much World of Warcraft, just show them this article about a user named "Prepared." He plays an amazing 36 World of Warcraft accounts on 11 different computers ('http://videogames.yahoo.com/feature/gamer-juggles-over-30-warcraft-characters/1255554') at the same time. He is his own raid group. "It costs me exactly $5711 in subscription costs per year with 36 accounts on the 6 month pay schedule," he writes. "Not bad considering I'm looking at it like it's a hobby and there are more expensive hobbies out there than World of Warcraft."

Typical of /. they linked to an article that links to another article that finally links here. Considering the typical /. mentality and the fact it was posted to idle, they will never get here in numbers to kill the site. I mean seriously, who on /. actually reads the articles before posting the 1000 comments on it.....

Uh oh, wowinsider may report this as another case of a multi-boxer bragging..

<parody>
they brag (under their breath in a crowded restaurant) that they actually read slashdot articles making them superior to the rest of us who post comments based entirely on a paragraph long snippet which is known to often be very misleading
</parody>
