WoW addiction - June 11th 2009, 12:51 PM

Of the 12million players of World of Warcraft, estimated 40% or so are addicted. Most are raiders, who are sucked in by the social aspect of the game.

Imagine, would you rather be a sad, lonely, socially introverted, shy individual in the real world or a leader, a mighty dragon slayer who, in the case of raiding especially, 24 other people or more look up to like a god?

Real life freinds and relationships fade. WoW ones strengthen, making it a vicious cycle. I was depressed, and used to be hooked, but fortunatly I managed to battle the addiction.

Anyone suffers from this or used to?
