I have a long discussion of the nature of raids and reptition in WoW that I’m not ready to post. However, I would just like to quote one post from WoW Detox that kinda stuck with me and gives some insight into the article I’m currently composing:
Realized I could better _myself_ rather than a character if I invested the same amount of time.

Alan Henry I know, isn’t it wonderful? :D
Foxfier ….I think that title may trip adult entertainment filters.
Hey now…that’s blasphemy ’round these parts, mister.
This blog is getting lame fast. I personally liked it better when it wasn’t a log of you personally getting tired of the game.
“Realized I could better _myself_ rather than a character if I invested the same amount of time.”
Is alot like saying if I read textbooks all the time I will learn more than if I read fiction.
Art and entertainment have a place in everyone’s life. This is the entertianment I choose.
I have met GREAT people through this game that no chat room or local pub would ever have allowed me to contact. No; WoW should not dominate your life anymore than watching TV or movies… but if your personality does not allow you to create a comfortable line between entertainment and the other aspects of your life. That’s a lot bigger problem than whether or not you have a subscription to WoW.
All entertainments become dull. Even gladiatorial combat. That’s why we are constantly driven to find something new. Welcome to the human condition.
8/8 Bloodfang, i know repetition. raiding isnt for everyone.
we3bus, if you don’t like what we’re posting, go submit some news to WoWbreak.
Frankly, I wish there was some interesting stuff going on in WoW that needed several posts to fully explore it, but both the expansion and the trading card game are a bit like a rainbow that gets further away as you move closer.
