Last time I checked you had to be max level to raid and trust me..leveling to 60...70...80 didn't exactly take effort. A retarded monkey could do it. Raiding used to be a challenge, so much so that you actually had to think about how to kill a boss. You know that when Naxx at level 60 came out it actually took guilds around 3 months to beat everything in there? Yeah , they must have had complaints from people that play once a month that their couldn't compete in pvp because the hardcore guys had better gear or something Last i heard WoW subscription numbers were delcining but i don't think there has been a numbers release for quite a while.Certainly alot of the newer content is pissing some of the long time players off. | ||

Those PvP ones are no joke, and one would need a really good 5 man group for some of the heroic achievements... which means one needs good gear, which means raiding successfully... Woah, i'm amazed how much you know about WoW :$. ..Eventhough the PvP ones are the easiest ones for me. | ||

Haha back when I was playing in original wow, was a new server and was about the 3rd time kazzak had been attempted and we (an alliance guild) fought with another alliance guild and a horde guild to kill kazzak for 40~ hours all up. Fun times. | ||

There are more people (amateurs, courage participants, B teamers) than there are uber crazy WoW addicts like this guy. Logging in to raid a few hours, or grind a few levels, play a little PVP... is the same as playing a few games of SC, finishing a campaign. People always think that all WoW players are all addicts... Female logic at its best. Both are sitting in front of a computer!! It's the same thing!!! Starcraft is a lot more challenging and demanding. You learn about your weaknesses and strengths and other things you can transfer to your life. WoW just makes you dumb. It's a mindless grind. If someone plays chess 10 hours a day or grinds 10 hours a day in some mmo I won't judge you but if you can't see the difference... | ||

I'm dying to know Without Starcraft I wouldn't have made so much money at Poker. It taught me discipline and the need to analyse and reflect, not to let emotions take over and many more things. Chess and Starcraft are the only two games that gave me trouble sleeping because I couldn't stop thinking about different constellations and strategies. I don't play either anymore but Starcraft showed me that with dedication and focus you can achieve A LOT. And that's the main reason I love this game so much. | ||

Sorry, but you're insanly ignorant. You can argue all day long on how "rewarding" something is vs something else, but it's all gonna come down to what you do, and how you use it. Bringing up a example of SC and how YOU have used it, vs how YOU would've used (or used it?) WoW (Two diffrent cases) could be done in the EXACT same fashion Pro WoW vs con SC. Sitting and working as a team to beat difficult bosses, creating social networks vs playing UMS SC all day. I wonder which is more rewarding and challenging? | ||

If someone plays chess 10 hours a day or grinds 10 hours a day in some mmo I won't judge you but if you can't see the difference... I'm glad that SC taught you something you could transfer over to poker. However, there are tons of SC players in Korea who probably played more than you who are shit at poker. (I have my sources) When you raid in WoW you learn teamwork, you learn how to take orders from a leader or even to be a leader. You learn to find different strategies for a group where in SC you might do it individually. In PvP, getting to know each class and their weakness/strengths is a feat on it's own - makes you more perseptive and it's definitely help me have faster reflexes for certain things. Socially, you need to keep a certain reputation so it can even possibly help someone home social skills if they are in a guild or a raiding group. You can go on and argue your point, saying that this is "female logic" (YAY COMPUTERS! TEEHEE!) but what you are arguing is purely subjective. You hone different skill sets as they are different games, different TYPES of games. The whole point was that people as bashing on this guy for obtaining his goal of having all the acheivements because he's "wasting time in front of a computer". What I'm saying is yes, a lot of SC players do the same. A lot of WoW players do the same. But as you wouldn't call JD a loser for winning an OSL - stop judging a guy for winning something that could be of a similar calibur in his world. | ||

So are you saying that without starcraft you wouldn't be so good at Poker and wouldn't have made so much money? I find it strange that you have learned discipline, analyzing and how to reflect via starcraft, because that's what people actually learn in life when they grow up. Also not letting emotions take over do you really think it's not a good thing? Keeping emotions to yourself only make's people apathetic. I'm sorry if this is too personal or something I just find this very interesting because i am actually making study of how people grow to their "feelings" and never thought one could achieve it via game . | ||
