Okay, this is pretty serious - any shit-tacular or immature/sarcastic replies will be banned.


Honestly. This has been pissing me off from day one and it's pretty sad. I've endured this shit ever since it came out.
What game? WoW of course - no doubt, who? Older brother - I swear he's the most annoying piece of shit ever, during the day and during night.
Yesterday night pissed the shit outta me, as I was trying to sleep (it's already fuckin 2 in the morning - and he does this every fucking night). He's playing WoW and watching some stupid ass video with his online girlfriend that he met in some shitty kiddy game long fucking time ago (what was it, maplestory? LOL?) and she's fuckin Puerto Rican.

So finally I can't take it anymore, get out of my bed and goto his room to tell him to shut the fuck up 'cause people are trying to sleep (parent's and me) and he's all "Yeah well, stop talking to your girlfriend whos just bitching at you"

LOL??????????
Just because a call came from my g/f (who lives in vancouver for the summer - 3 hours back) doesn't mean shes bitching at me, nor does he know that me and my g/f are on VERY good terms and we hardly fight or bitch at each other - and now he's just making shit up in front of his online fucktard who is on cam with him.
I was outside his room door when I heard this, he was telling his online bitch that he'll just tell parents that I was talking to my bitchy girlfriend LOL.
And you know what? BOTH OF THEM PLAYS WoW TOGETHER. ALL FUCKING DAY AND NIGHT - ON THE FUCKING MIC, also 'timing' their movie at the same time to watch it together. LOL.

But all this shit I've had enough of - honestly to the point where I would NOT care if he was my brother or not. I wouldn't give a shit in the world if he fucked up on anything and got fucked over in reality - as long as he's alive (death is a little overboard)

I seriously want him to fucking attend korean military just to learn fucking manners and respect (we're korean family). He's fucking 22, not having moved out once of the house, not knowing shit about reality because the only times he goes out are when he goes to hang out with his one friend that he's had for his whole HS/Uni life. The only good thing he has going for himself is the fact that he never has to study for anything in school. He just automatically gets an A somehow.

Parent's have pretty much given up on him with the whole late nighter (he goes till like 4AM) and another thing that makes him a stupid fucker is that he and I know that our family is in a tad financial thing and shit he's doing is buying meals from the mall food court every fucking day, wasting gas GETTING his mother fucking ass to the mall (gas is fucking 1.28), buying a brand new laptop (1.5 grand) to run his WoW even smoother when it was running just fine on the desktop, and just wasting shit + $20 per month for his shitty World of ShitCraft.

How would you stop a fucking moron like this?
Honestly, it's becoming a fucking annoyance. He doesn't exercise, has fucking bad hygeine (sp) and he's getting even more fucking fat.
I can't talk him out of it (or involve any talking) because all he says is "meh", "I don't care", etc.
ignorant responses that I notice a lot of WoW fuckers I've seen.
He's pretty fucking white-washed as shit too.

You accidentally delete it from his desktop, and his laptop. Then accidentally throw his CD's away.

I'm surprised he hasn't bored himself to death on that game yet, cause the gameplay itself is pretty shit boring. Here is a suggestion though >:-)

If you can catch him away from his computer, go to his graphics card settings and turn them way down and hope he doesn't know how to turn them back up. WoW on sup-bar graphics is unbearable, cause then all you have going is gameplay, and WoW gameplay blows (I quit after one month of raiding lols). Granted it could be a bit harder if he plays with this online gf of his....meh...

Brake his computer completely/Hack his account/delete all the shit. He'll have big anger of you but he'll be thankful later.

the "timing their movies together" is kinda cute honestly. i did that with my gf for a while when she was at stanford... but we ended breaking up cause long distance relationships really suck. she used to play WOW but i got her to quit because WOW and college do not mix.

looks like ur bro is a lost cause. he probably knows that he's a loser, but he doesn't want to admit it because admitting it would mean he'll have to stop his loser hedonistic life. your parents are the only people who can kick him out of the house and force him to get a job. not much you can do, sorry. but if your parents don't kick him out, the problem wont get any better. your bro's 22 now. if your parents procrastinate 5 years, they'll just have a 27 year old dude in the house. and chances are, by then, he'll be much more belligerent, angry at himself and everyone else, and hard to deal with. i hear it happening all the time. you really need to get your parents to force him to give out on his own. stupid spoiled brat.

at 22, it's possible to kick him out. he wont like it but inside he knows they're right. at 27, it's going to be pretty much impossible.
can't making a relationship last longer than 2 weeks, since 1984 :thumbs:

Lol? I don't give a shit if he's older - he has the mind of a fucking 12 year old
Normally I wouldn't approach it like this if it was some other korean older person that I knew - but he's brother by blood and I've been fucking enduring this ever since WoW came out.
Try fucking with that.

Dont just chunk the thing. Read the following. The part of minding his own business can be quoted alone tho.

That's a good answer too. If you ask kindly, he won't do anything and play that game, you need to force him do to something, well you need to kick out of the house to force him doing something. (Cutting internet, not paying any bills, whatever)

I love when people feel "forced" to save others, or prevent them from doing something they believe will harm an individual. Who the fuck gave you that right ?

By doing so and acting this way you just prove you're much more stupid than him.

I quit 2 weeks after hitting 70 lol. Was supposed to be doing TK the night I quit :-D. Did down some bosses in mount hyjal too, but didn't get any loot :-/

If nothing else, sooner or later the brother in mention is gonna screw up a grade or two if he doesn't pre-emptively quit WoW. Maybe when that happens, it will provide him with more incentive to quit. Another option is to get him interested in some philosophical shit or something that requires actual thinking, and hope his online gf is the pure gaming type :-P

If he gives you some looks / talks shit etc, ignore him and keep dancing~~

ok a serious reply for a change.

It sounds hard b/c obviously he doesnt value when you have to say, or what opnions you have etc. I + my friends basically coerced a good friend out of playing wow, but that was b/c we were on very good terms and we respect each other's opinions etc, + the guy himself knew wow was bad but it was like a fucking drug, etcetc.

Then again there's another friend who wont stop smoking when all of are telling him to fucking stop, so -_-.

He'll quit on his own. You think it's fun to do nothing every single day? It wears on you and I bet at that age it makes him feel like crap. Given enough time he'll get out of it. You need to chill out and stop being a pussy for noise at 2am (it's not even that late).

It sounds like he's at an uni that is lower standard than what he is capable of (and is thus unchallenging / uninspiring), or simply isn't pushing himself hard enough there so he's just taking the EZEZ classes and getting his marks.

True - it's doable, but seeing as how he only has one friend, I doubt it is very possible and because I doubt his also lazy friend will do anything about it.
I've thought of sending a video or something about what I just typed (OP first post) to his girlfriend (although with less fucktacular hate), seeing as how she's his girlfriend - she must have SOME power of influence on him.

One idea is to have the parents kick him out, plug him into a college dorm and have HIM be responsible for paying the fees to the dorm. ie get a fucking job. $10/hour jobs are not hard to find, and if he is actually somewhat intelligient then he can go tutor some JH/HS kids for upwards of $50/hour.

From what you've described, I really can't figure out even a reasonably plausible solution, other than the latest one where the parents force action upon him. He's fucking 22 ffs, has a decent brain (potentially), and is doing well in uni apparently. Go talk to you parents in earnest, kick him the fuck out, move him into a dorm, and force him to work. Work will force him to interact with pple, and who knows, maybe he'll get a RL GF at the local taco bell for all we know.

Yeah he did this for like a month or two.
He got a warehouse job @ canadian tire, and tutored two HS friends I know (from another school tho) like 2 years ago, 'cause my parents told him to.
After 2 months, he quit because he "had enough money" - adding to the 2 grand that he got for selling his shitty maplestory account.

True, listen to this man.


Your brother is probably well aware of his situation and probably doesn't like it as much as you think he does, no 22 year old person wants to sit at home doing nothing but play WoW all days knowing that most people are out living their lives, you'll feel like shit. People like that usually have low self-esteem or something like that which hinders them from taking the step to move out, find a job or whatever.

btw rowing is like the perfect sport for fatasses to get into b/c you dont have to carry your weight around lololol. But it's like impossible to get introduced to it unless you're somehow affiliated to a club or you join it in college.

I know that wow and drugs are not same thing but seriously wow is a kind of drug and he is addicted to it, you got the point imo.

By doing so and acting this way you just prove you're much more stupid than him.

That's complete bullshit. Most of the time, you can't save a person from themselves, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try. Who gives you that right? That's the right you get when you care for another human being, like a friend or lover or relative. If you hardcore game all day and enjoy it, you probably don't know what that experience is like.

To think that you shouldn't try to change someone who's harming themselves is absolutely absurd. When it fails, as it likely will, then you can abandon them, but don't try and play indifference from the start and call yourself a decent human being.

To the OP, really your parents have to deal with it. I doubt there's much you can do as a younger brother.

And you just without knowing it, showed a large chunk of that human behaviour that brings disasters upon others.

Why do you care ?

Just for the very feeling of satisfaction any human beeing can feel upon acting on someone else's life.

This is obnoxious.

Again you have no fucking right to do so. Go and plant fucking trees, might prove to be much more useful.

Why do I care about other people? Honestly, I don't even believe what you said about hardcore gaming. You're trying hard to project yourself as a waste of life, but I doubt you're really that apathetic.

what means "a waste of life" ? That has no meaning ? o_O Can you quantify life ? Is it something?
A material ? You can touch concepts with your hands ?

Let's just say "waste", then again, like every single person in this thread, you make a fucking judgement over someone wich is stupid.

Upon seeing the dead body of his greatest friend, the wise shall answer to the persons asking him why he isn't moved by such a death and doesn't cry :

"This is not my friend, this is a dead body."

You're right, we should live in anarchic relativism where no one shall cast a judgment on another person. Should I ask how much human contact you get when you game all day for months at a time while enjoying it, or would that leave everyone here to make a ghastly judgment about your personal life.

Hell, rights themselves are a man made relativist concept. How do you have the right to tell other people that they don't have the right to affect other people? Your point of view is essentially non-Humanism.

Why does it matter that he's getting good grades in college? What if he were failing out of college? From everything you've posted so far, it's consistent that he and his parents should still leave the brother alone.

I think my last word is...

If you care about someone's wellbeing, I think you have a shot at convincing them to quit.

But if you are on bad terms and you dont really give a shit about one another (even if you're siblings) then your message likely won't come through. Esp if the reason for you wanting him to quit isn't so he'll make something of himself / doesnt go into a shithole, but rather b/c you're ticked off at him and his behavior.

JLIG, ignore him, get into a decent college yourself w/ hopefully financial aid, and get the hell away from him.

If we could, invaraibaly, control the behavior of others, life itself would be much simpler, yes? Unfortunately for you, I think the problem is more that you think you ahve the right or duty to interfere with your brothers lifestyle and choices.

The problem here is not WoW--it's that your brother is addicted. The problem is addiction--not what a given person is addicted to (exception: nicotine and other substances purposely designed to be addictive). So, until your brother wakes the fuck up and realizes there's more to life than his Puerto Rican girlfriend (read: obese white lonely man from Minnesota) and WoW, you can't really do much.

Sorry, I'm sure you wanted an easy way to control your brother's behavior.

sigh
I really feel for you man I really do -_-
my brother is also obese, gives no shit about hygiene, is apathetic, refuses to engage in conversation with logic, burns his life away playing wow all day.
he already wasted 4 years of his life playing lineage2 while he was supposed to be studying away from home. my father cut him off, so he's back to my hometown (he then stopped L2 and started WoW) and he's now attending some shit school from which he's supposed to be graduating in a few months (it requires literally no studying at all so I suppose he's going to graduate from that one). he's 25 (i'm 22)

luckily i'm not staying home. i'm away at a different town studying so I don't have to be bearing with this shit every day. but i do go back for a few days every now and then and i'm fully aware of his situation. what people defending them fail to realise is the toll this whole situation brings to the family. i mean if you're living on your own with your own money somewhere then fine. do what u fucking want with your life. i'm only going to be bothered for a while to practically losing a potential brother and then go on with my life. but when you're living with your family you can't act as if you're on your own. refusing to live a somewhat normal life. refusing to take a bath at least every fucking 2 or even 3 days. refusing to participate in anything. refusing to be a son, or a brother. for the few days i get to spend with my family i have to spend them in an environment of sorrow and bitterness all stemming from this fucking situation. from all the various incidents that cause these feelings. feelings of emptiness and desperation. you can't give up on your son. you can't give up and not care about your brother. plus he's being an everyday burden. he gets food, shelter, money, "education" and gives nothing back. i can now realise the bad effect he has had in my life. even unconsciously, when you have an older brother he's being kind of a role model of you. but i've been having a wholy different life and mindset from him since about the age of 12. he's deprived me of the older brother i had before he gets into this bad self of his. and what's worse i can't enjoy my time in my fucking home cause it's a sad place because of him. and this is a big fucking deal.

I've seen my parents trying to deal with it with so many ways. good and bad. calm and angry. thoughtful and desperate. they all fail cause there's no cooperation. it's like talking to a wall. if you're spending all day doing one single thing, your mind starts failing to progress. he can't see beyond his miserable pathetic self. i've tried to talk to him too but as i said before, that's not an easy thing to do when u fail to discuss with logic. he's like "i know this is white but fuck it. it's black". my parents won't kick him out because they're afraid of him getting into trouble. he has "stolen" money before from them and from me and he's been a liar since he was a kid. a kid... that's what he fucking is. he's refusing to grow up. be a man and get a life.

i don't know if there's a way out. but seriously if anyone finds it i'd be thankful if you let me know -_-


p.s.: hmm.. the post sucks and maybe it's not really coherent but I hope i get through what i want to say

I have to study every night and when I go to sleep I always hear my brother talking to his dumbass wow buddies it gets really annoying, though he's not as bad as what you describe and he's actually going to med school in a few months.

How do you stop someone like that? You don't, you can only do it for yourself not for someone else. You can't convince people like that why the game sucks, why it's a waste of time etc, they don't listen to logic.

edit:

also 'timing' their movie at the same time to watch it together.


hahahahaha sorry man but that's just fucking hilarious :D

Fuck, Dawn I know how you feel -_-

I don't want to derail this thread but, instead of my brother playing WoW he instead is an audiophile and is a total faggot because of it. He complains that I don't make enough money (I work as a TA at this Korean academy) when he doesn't even have a fucking job and spends thousands of dollars on one fucking pair of headphones realizing a couple of days later that he doesn't like it. The guy trashes my room (I have to share my room with him wtf), leaves paper bags and leftover food and shit everywhere and whenever I tell him to clean his shit up he talks about how I'm a whiner.

He turns 21 today and he still is a fucking retard.

Fuck that is actually a good idea. First I laughed because I thought it was a joke but then I realize it's practical too. Just sneak into his room when he goes to the bathroom and pull this shit on him.

I love Starcraft because nobody can take skill away from you :D

The problem is that he has pretty much his whole social life on WoW

Telling him to stop playing WoW is like telling you to never meet any of your friends ever again.

In wow you can actually request your stuff back. (at least once) after losing it because of whatever reason. They do anything to keep someone playing.
