So I went back last night and installed The Burning Crusade. The Sickness (what I call addicted to WoW) had started to slip again. We had some that night and I could not play, but I showed the guy the expansion and he sounded interested. That night, I created my shaman. Over the next few months, I played with my roommate who I bought the game and the friends I made within the guild, Spartans. At least, until I realized that it was taking over and decided to take a break. I have not canceled my account, but simply stopped playing for a while.The most frustrating thing I realize now WoW is that when you do not play, you think all the people that you could potentially be dropped ... people you do not even know in all reality. Of course, you may see them as friends and people you like to play with, but they do not miss you. At least I did not miss ... never ... I get to come back online after having disappeared for a few days and say: "Sorry, I was out a little." Nobody has ever responded to something closer to "Oh, man, we missed you" or "The n was not the same without you around."Yeah ... So, why the hell have I been so worried about what they thought, even when I left and returned to find it was not all serious. But I beat him. Some people will say "Well yes, because you were not a regular raider." But this is not true. I mean each person who signs up to raid a few weeks at a time is necessary to submit ... but if you do not, what is the worst that can happen? You can not kill a boss? You can not spend 4 hours to waste your life?I mean, really, there is no consequence whatsoever if you put the game and never come back. Gah! It's frustrating to talk!
Anyway ... I decided it was time to return so I do for a few more months I lost my life away and made a descent here and there. I remember one night I raided we almost killed this boss called Voidreaver, and if the next night, my wife let me play (I know) and we ended up killing him. It was the first time about 2.5 years I had never been present for the "First Kill" from the boss in the game.So I played and played and played, and soon it is time for graduation and does not need to live 45 minutes from the city. So my wife and I moved, but I canceled my account in April 2008 with the intention to reactivate once we could afford the internet. Well, I also decided for other reasons not to activate the internet in my house. My wife and I were in trouble and we agree that it was the worst summer of our lives ... we try to have a child at the time and thank you God, we do not see, otherwise we would have probably lost the baby.But we did not and we've finally been able to offer the internet, my wife wanted, so I too reactivated my account at the beginning of August, without the intention (but want) to get the second expansion, Rise of the Lich King. So I played a little more stabilized and actually some of my other Toons (characters) and finally left with 3 level 70 (which was the level cap at the time)....
