Apparently you don't understand what happens with MMORGS.
No doubt, you WILL get addicted if you are a serious gamer. Shit is like the history of my life.
Since Ultima Online, ever single mmporg I've played has taken ahold of me. My only excuse is, that I can sell my shit on ebay (made over $500 on UO alone) once I've had enough. When I was addicted to UO I was in high school had basketball practice, girlfriend, and school but still found ways to play minimum 4 hours a day(was sleeping like 3 hours a night) it was the most enjoying time of my day for over 2 years (besides sex). Dark Age of Camelot was close, but not near as bad as UO.
As a freshmen in college I blew off classes daily to smoke the sweet herb

and play my game (DAOC). My GPA was pathetic. That's why I take caution. (actually, my willpower just gives out) Only reason I plan on getting WoW is cuz I'm in my college town (with near everyone home for the summer) for something to do besides work and train. Though the evil wacky tobacky was partially at fault (but I can't blame my sweet cheeba)
I just hope it doesn't effect my life as much as my other games did.....that's pathetic, someone bitchslap me.
