I tired RL once, but the grafx suxored! Now if i could 5 box RL, then i might still play it! I could get a lot more done! I would send the other 4 out to work while I stay home and play games!

How would you know that you were the one who was playing, how do you know you wouldn't be one of the ones working! check under your eyelids!
also: i have shelved my accounts, too. I'm over WoW. They offer nothing interesting after a long wait for this expansion, and when only one of my teams works and the others are complete garbage, I can't stay interested sitting in game waiting for my 15 minute arena queue to pop only to find there's a frost mage, and he's going to solo my team. Or do rated BGs to find that the mage is now controlling my whole team while his druid buddy is capping my base..
on to bigger and better things.
Somehow I missed this thread until today and just read through the whole thing.
I'm very surprised. I'm still having a great time playing and am enjoying the PvE portion of the game. This expansion is definitely more challenging, figuring out all the new tradeskill upgrade paths cheaply is difficult, there is quite a bit to grind, rep takes a long time to get, heroics are probably too long, but these things make accomplishments that much more meaningful to me.
I think Blizzard has done a great job with this expansion. We were kind of like teenagers partying with the parents away during the last stages of WotLK, but they have added in so much depth with this expansion. Heck, I never even knew what half of my abilities were on all my different toons before, and I was soloing ICC! Now I have to actually CC, interrupt, dispel, purge, move with a purpose - it is like a whole new game. I'm not saying there weren't times of frustration, or that Blizz couldn't help us a bit by adding an epic to the final bosses in heroics, but the game does seem richer than it did before.
Tol Barad dailies, heroics, achieiving rep levels and the new gear that goes along with them, farming epics off mobs in BoT, figuring out how to down Argaloth in Baradin Hold - it all seems rather fun to me.
Anyway, I hope you guys find exciting things to pursue. And if not, that you find some of the fun in WoW I have when you come back!
Yeah, merc your PvE success is fantastic, and I know you work very hard at it, and I commend you!
I do not have any PvE aspirations, as we have talked about some in the past couple weeks, and for me, im not really skilled or motivated enough to start doing 10mans on my own again, or doing even heroics with any of my toons.
Although I'm far from it. I realy would want to be where Merc is now:) So I've got alot of work ahead of me!
Meh, I went ahead and canceled my accounts yesterday. I managed to make myself play twice since my last post, and even as I was making progress in heroics, actually completing several, I just can't be bothered with it anymore. I've got Dungeons coming out next week and LotRO is free to play. With any luck, things will become less sucktastick and WoW will draw me back in a few months, but there's no sense in paying for 5 accounts when all I do is list auctions.
Well add another multiboxer with canceled accounts.
heh, not that I was ready to though. This last winter storm, caused some severe Damage to my home, And even though, I had pipes insulated, they burst, including severe damage to my hot water heater.
So, I could tap into my Cow money, and then worry about debt in the spring, or I can cancel my wow accounts for a month or two, and take care of the problems now.
Being that I hate Debt with a passion (I'm the cheapest man alive, pay cash or do without kind of person), I choose to give up WoW for a few months.
Maybe the reports will be better come April, if not, than I'll have weened myself from the game anyways.
Best of luck to you all, and I'll still be here perusing the Hardware stuff, and cheering you all on for your accomplishments.
