Heaven forbid people should spend 5 hours at a time enjoying themselves. Crazier things have been known to happen.

I had a really long post here, but it's not worth it.
The moment a game makes me spend more than an hour to get to the real content, I stop playing.
And you people wonder why I don't play MMOGs anymore.
I'll tell you why - they're a goddamn waste of my time. My 3 hour Lumines II session tonight was more fun than I've ever had with designer created content in an MMOG.
And Lumines II sucks.

For some reason, I seem to be getting more patient as I get older, not less.
That's the only reason I can credit as to why I still like WoW after having played it for so long.

BUT I COULD QUIT ANY TIME!!!!? Seek help, you are trying to justify spending countless hours on a repetitive task just to get to something fun. |

Sure I do like raiding with my alliance mates and shooting the shit. If you hate the people you raid with, you hate your job in the raid, and you are just there for loot, boy it's going to suck ass. |

It wasn't even that good, but between the techno remix of Loituma's song and More Dots I was cracking up. Thanks.

The funny part of this situation to me is I grew up with the GM of Overrated.
Overrated was basically the hardcore guys that broke off from my WoW guild (I was guild master, and we werent about to raid 6 nights a week). One of the last straws was they secretly did a pull of Broodlord that was considered an exploit (basically putting any acct on that raid ID at risk) and soon after they broke off. In the end they merged with the Elite guild of the server, Bloodsworn, and they transferred off Shadow Moon to Black Dragonflight due to our horrible hardware.
Here is my understanding of the events. They were the first and only Horde guild to down Kel. Some members decided to try a dumb hack, the GM (my friend) basically looked the other way, and after 2 raids like this they were banned. There was no grand scheme to make a big statement or to go out with a bang (maybe there was but only by a very limited number of people, not all of Overrated). Anyone that had that raid ID or the one from the raid before was banned. Even those that did not hack their clients were banned (and I basically agree with it).
There was prolly 10k worth of accounts in that guild. Whoops!
Anyways, its a small Virtual World of 7.5 million people. I knew like 3/4 of the guild, and a handful of them in RL.

Also, the thing that got them caught was their MT told his E-girlfriend about them hacking it (she happened to be a heavy raider elsewhere) who in turn reported them. The moral of the story:
Don't hack. If you do hack, don't tell people.

North American Horde, yes. A Euro Horde guild actually got the world first. (Pedantic I know, but just wanted to clear that up :P.) Also, the thing that got them caught was their MT told his E-girlfriend about them hacking it (she happened to be a heavy raider elsewhere) who in turn reported them.
