OMG IMMA QUIT!

[Basilikos]

I've canceled my account(s) a few times, most often just due to boredom / frustration. (PuGs are the #1 killer of WoW players I'd bet.. lol).

I cancelled mine just today. I want to take a break before making an actual attempt at Northrend content.

I quit my 5x 3 months before wotlk.
is 1 pal + 4 shaman still "fun"?

I did mostly heroics, AV, but not really got into arena to win except for the minimal weekly points.

I felt I was grinding for upgrades every season, is it the same grind to get decent comparable top pvp gear / badge gear?

maybe he meant ....quit the official forums in utter disgust.

maybe he meant ....quit the official forums in utter disgust.

Now that's something I can agree with!



Although I made my first post in about 6 months on my realm forum this week. It was stickied when I checked back 4 hours later. I had a good laugh :).

All you have discovered is that he threatened to cancel his account, and that now a few months on the track he is still playing. Doesn't mean anything. What I am telling you is that a few months ago, I DID cancel my account yet a down the track I am still playing. For all we know, he DID cancel his account. I don't see him claiming to never renew it.

Yes, but the reason you quit was because server conditions had become intolerable, wasn't it? And you returned when that situation was remedied? That is understandable.

Edit: I see from your post that you canceled one day and renewed the next. I'm not sure how well that works, as the service was never interrupted. Posting in the threads that were provided for this might have been a better action. Otherwise it's like those "gas strikes" that people try to get others to join them on, by holding off on gas purchases for one day in order to hurt gas company profits. When they go to fill up the next day, the previous day's loss is remedied, and the companies are no longer concerned.

This fellow threatened to quit over something that had little effect on his gameplay, and possibly even none. And he is playing now, even though the situation that he considered to be unacceptable to his principles (which is the basis of his threat) has NOT changed. He was effectively claiming to make a stand on principle, and either never went through with it, or he gave in and returned and has leveled to 80 in spite of the fact that multiboxing is still allowed. Or, as someone suggested, he sold the account, which also undermines his attempt to make it a moral or ethical issue-- the game company offends his sensibilities by allowing multiboxing, but he has no qualms about violating the contract he agreed to in order to make some extra cash?

Any way you slice it, his actions show that he is either a faker or a hypocrite. Not because he may have left and returned (hell, I took a break from WoW late last year), but because of the circumstances involved. He either fell off of his high horse, or he wasn't sitting on one in the first place.

No, I never left, I cancelled then renewed the next day... not losing a single minute of play time. Aussie servers still have more lag than any other servers in the world.

Once again, I too have cancelled my account, but I'm level 80. I never stopped playing lol.
