So, I've been playing since launch and have raided every boss in the game except about half of Naxx in classic and half of Sunwell in BC. Starting in BC I started 5-boxing because I found that the game wasn't challenging enough as a single player. I worked myself up to 9-boxing in Wrath thinking that I'd raid, but decided against it and moved back to 5 pretty quickly. Now I've been 5-boxing in Cata and the heroic challenges were kind of fun, but I'm getting really tired of this game. At this point the only reason I'm still playing is because I don't want to let my raid guild down. Is it just me or do others think that this xpac isn't fun?

I have half a mind to post all my secrets and be done with the game forever.

hmm what secrets :)

As for me been playing since Vanilla few months before BC was released, I like the game still the same, loved BC, wasnt hyped about Wotlk but liked it, didnt think much of Ulduar, Loved ICC until 7 or so alts went through the place as well, by then was beyond drained from all the GDKP's lol.

Enjoyed it tho, loving cata, has good and bad like all expansions I think.

If i find something not interesting or not fun, then I move onto something else.

I think good company in the game makes a huge difference in having fun playing a pass the time pc game.

Dislike the realm I am stuck on, but enjoy the game for what it is.

Looking forward too battlefield 3 as an inbetween to play, as I really enjoyed battlefield 2.

I raid, I pvp some what, more bgs... chase after mounts when Im in the mood or fillling in time, make gold, spend gold, raid some more, curse the realm some more, and so forth.

I play with my fiance and my daughter and 2 real life friends, so that contributes to loads of fun in many different ways and cata looks good, I like how we arent stuck in shat or dalaran and back in our home cities too. Love how old areas revamped and can fly in Azeroth.

Everyone has different views, opinions and outlooks on things, I think you make your own fun... or join in on others. /shrug

I like the game just as much as when I first started yrs ago.

I go in phases for Warcraft.

I started the game, basically at release.
And was two-boxing, via two physical computers each with a keyboard and mouse (with no hardware/software boxing specific stuff) from the get go.

I saw Ellay's videos, and decided to box the game; this was fairly late Burning Crusade.
Picked up one account, RAF to one of my two.
Then three days later, picked up two more accounts.
Ended up with (A/B = Existing; C/D/E = New).... A > C > D // and // B > E...., RAF chains.
Finished RAF prior to WotLK.

Boxing was still relatively new, so WotLK was fun most of the way through.

Cata seems less fun than previous eras of the game.
But I've also played the game several years at this point, and honestly was close to quitting late BC when boxing made it fun again.

I regularly take 3-4 months off every summer.
That helps to keep the game fresh.

When Blizzard nerfed my previous composition into the ground.
I cancelled accounts and quit, but decided to continue the gold thing until my paid time ran out.

Another composition became fun in that time.
So haven't quit yet.
But my 3-4 month break is coming up in a couple of months.

I'm still having fun. I got a team to 85 and thought What Now?? so I started running three of them in bgs as healers. BGs are my favorite part of the game even though it can be painful running random bgs alone as a healer.

I moved on to my second highest team which is a different comp and the pve part became fun again. I also did different wotlk dungeons than i did on the first team, which helped too. They're parked at 80 because i ran out of rest bonus.

Right now i'm powerleveling lowbies through 60-70, burning up their rest bonus and trying to find the most efficient way to do it. I'm hoping to make a definitive post on here about it. I'm trying to give back to this site since I've gotten so much help from people on here.

WoW has nothing particular left of value for me, though largely it's a matter of my limited ability perform dynamic simultaneous tasks ( think shaped peg in hole toys that punish you for not immediately solving the puzzle, or doing it one peg at a time. Simple if you have multiple people focused on one task, hard to impossible if by yourself). It has me considering the merits of programs that shall not be named as a method of improving performance.

Of course even then, I could do that with any multiplayer game, not just WoW, so it's not like it has that much value, just seems like the funnest one to try it out on.
