Reality Thursday: How to tell you’re an addict
Written by Ithiel on Thursday, May 7th.
A little over 2 months ago, a friend of mine decided to quit WoW. In the heat of the moment, he went on a mad rampage through his account, vendoring all his items, giving away the gold, and deleting all the characters (a few 80s, few 70s, and a 60 or two all in total - a lot of toons, and the nub didn’t even Fraps it)..
Upon realising that there was a rather healthy market for.. how should I put it.. ‘pre-loved’ WoW accounts, he petitioned a GM, said ‘zOMGHAX - My Stuff is gone!’ (aka. QQ Moar, bs bs, etc etc), and in a gigantic puff of smoke - everything was back as it should be. Said-friend then offloaded his account for a semi-healthy sum (although if you devided the amount he got by the total /played time, it suddenly makes China’s labor rates look all cute and fluffy, but anyway).
So, at this point - life was good. He had moved on, even started to venture outside from time to time (little steps people, little steps) - we were all very proud of him.
Unfortunatly for him, but much to Blizzards benifit, his [Grip on Reality] didn’t provide enough resistance to defende against [Shadow Word: Addiction], which crit him for $20/Month, and.. well… He has another 80 now >.<
OK… too many lame WoW puns there, so I’ll just move right onto this comic which sums things up all pretty-like:
