I actually quit WoW about 3 years ago and traded it for real life. And now I think I'll be trading in real life for SC2. Blast you, Blizzard!! :D

Pretty sure I was the first troll priest to 60 on Detheroc. <Valen> had server firsts in Molten Core and Onyxia before server transfers basically ruined the server... you've been on Detheroc forever? O_o

I quit WoW at level 19 and never thought of ever in my life trying it again lol...

Reason I came to starcraft 2 is because age of empires II: age of kings is dead and SC2 is new and is similar to it.. + got tired of playing team games like HoN where I would have bad team mates when not playing with friends so now when I lose I know its cuz of me since I play 1 vs 1..

I agree with kzn, the first 2 or 3 seasons had the most competative potential.

As for getting my life back, thanks ;D
SC2 is also less addictive (imo) as I stated earlier.

WoW is like smoking, when you do it, you think that you want it and need it, but when you quit, you realize what mistake you did earlier.

I dont have to rely on 10+ people to actually play the game.


My god... when I still played wow you had to do 25 mans to get the best shit... I absolutely hated relying on the 3-5 idiots out of the 25 man raid who would stand in the fire and fucking ruin it for everyone. I think thats why I love SC so much. I'm basically controlling those idiots as well as myself now.

I quitted WoW exactly 1 year ago. WotLK doesnt didnt do it for me. Blizzard turned a brilliant game into shit with that expansion. Btw if you started wow in december 2005 then how can you have played for 6 years?,,doesnt really compute.
Anyway I also like the fact that if you lose its because your opponent played better. Just like in chess. No outside factors come into play.

25 mans were fucking easy compared to the 40 mans.

Although if you managed to get a good 40 man it was ridiculously fun.

DKo, it does feel really good ;D

I do remember the guild Valen. I was in the guild <Murder Inc> then I was in <S E V E N> for a while. Then when BC came out I got into the PvP aspect of the game more.

My brother who was SUPER addicted to WoW (2500 rated in arena) has decided after 6 years to give it up, and come play SC2. My jaw hit the floor when I heard that, as he has 4 subscriptions with various characters.

I quit WoW, not for SC2 but because it was boring. I haven't gone back to WoW despite multiple offers from people to raid with them because of SC2. Not surprisingly I haven't went back for the same reasons, skill cap, monthly fees, and the lack of true uniqueness that WoW offers.

Ive quit WoW about 2 years ago for sc1. Im still insanely into SC and i havent missed WoW at all. My friends quite WoW and go back playing it again saying its impossible to quite WoW forever but SC purified me :D

Also i hated the WoW community. Especially WorldofMing. TL is the best gaming community i have ever been in and Im honored that Im a part of it

Not really, I mean sure as a raid they were harder... because you had 15 more retards who can fuck it up and waste hours of your time.

The worst is when its a simple fight where there is a huge emote, like the Thadius charge... which can be tracked by 100's of mods, so that you can have giant flashing warnings on your screen that the fucking polarity changed... and you still get idiots blowing up.

That game was a major fucking source of anxiety for me. I'm so glad I don't play it anymore lol.
