I quitted wow for good at march 08. Never regretted it ever since! It was wasting away my 2.5years with wow. After which I realised how much I have gained without staring at my 22' lcd screen 3hrs a day, 30hrs a week! It was a fantastic game, the BEST pc game I have ever played, arguably the best pc game in the world.
It was extremely tough to quit. Probably one of the hardest thing I have ever done. The urge kept coming back. Why? Because I had put so much time and effort in it. I was the amazing druid in my guild, with the very best and latest gears. Everyone is admiring me. It served as the only inspirational purpose for me; I truely belonged to this world, I was so comfortable and in my comfort zone, away from the stresses, hassle and uncertainties of life. I escaped from the unhappiness of my life and what's going around me. The joy and fun and freedom to be in the game is priceless. I learned more to dwell longer each day into the game, wasting more of my precious time where I could spend quality time with my family and friends. No, I was too afraid to let go! Letting go seems like impossible. Its too damn hard to quit! Until I realised what damaged had it caused. I lost it completely and entirely. This game had consumed me. I needed to find a resolution before I'm truely sucked into this world of isolation and neglect.
I quitted and deleted my account once and for all for good, for me! It was once again the toughest thing but the best thing I have done for myself. I saved my own life. I was back on course in living normally like everyone else. My true account was still vivid till this moment. Why is wow so fantastic? It is a computer game where everyone can mingle with each other to play together, raid together and bond together in a virtual world. You never meet those players whom you have play with. It creates a sense of belonging. What ever you do you can always do it again. If you failed a quest or failed to obtain your dream tiers, or your failed in raids in killing the next toughest boss, you logged out and logged back in and try again the very next day! There is no consequences in wow. But in life, whatever choices you made, whatever you do will have an impact or consequence in your life. People find it extremely hard to quit and blamed it on the game.
Utimately blizzard is only trying to make money. The only person to blame is yourself! Not blizzard! You choose what life you would want and bear the consequence. To those fellow of thinking of quitting wow, I strongly encourage you. You would never have understood the joy once you step outside of this circle and truely enjoy life thereafter. Its the best thing you can do for yourself. Do yourself a favour, quit wow!!
Quit wow for good
