"A thirteen years old boy (Zhang) in Tianjin jumped off from the 24th floor and committed suicide after playing the game - World of Warcraft for 36 hours straight in a Chinese Cyber Cafe"

"According to the Chinese reporters (NetEase), Zhang left 4 pages long death will where he wrote how he worships the hero in the World of Warcraft and will miss his co-players from the game. His only wish is to give the "virtual equipment (weapons, books etc.)" to his classmates and hope his spirit will follow the legends in the game into the virtual world."

talk about obsession

thats some crazy shit

I've also read stories about people neglecting children and pets to the point of death because they were playing similar online games, as well as people literally dehydrating or starving to death.

I'm definately not THAT addicted to it, but I am at the point that I'll blow off going out with friends to stay home and play WoW.

As for Darque, I tried LoTRO but it didn't really drawn me in like WoW has, suppose I should give it another shot though, I always was a big fan of LoTR.

I play on Malfurion, Rivendare, and Scarlet Crusade

I used to play a lot but haven't for about nine months. I started on stonemaul alliance as a priest then later as a warrior first alliance then horde. I moved around a bit but eventually settled on Tichondrius and joined the guild Notorious on my rogue.
