    Star Wars verus Star Trek

    For those who don't get outside this forum much....

    I'm always amused/mystified by those dedicated fans who tell us that Captain Kirk would kick Luke Skywalker's butt. Or that Lord Vader would pwn the Borg.

    We now have a silly thread with a similar silly challenge: WoW versus PR

    That's why I ran away from those forums (to here) like my shirt was on fire.

    I think I'm going to hell. I actually responded. -.-

    Fat sweaty nerds indeed. Harumph. I'm tempted to -rep some of those peeps for disrespect to their fellow TGers.
    My sanity is not in question...
    It was a confirmed casualty some time ago.


    Light, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I had to kill because they ticked me off.

    Nah. I thought it was more fun to quote it back at them. I recall how addicted I was to other games like TFC and Tribes 2, and then the Battlefield series. WoW addiction isn't anything new, but the FPS'ers like to think it is.

    QQ more scratch don't you think your taking this a bit too far :P.

    Wow is addictive plain and simple because the goal that blizzard have at your disposal are almost unattainable. I don't think all players in wow are like that , but quite a few of them strife for a goal that is far beyond their reach putting in many hours for the slakers. It was like getting futher the twins when i was still playing i guess, clearing blackwing was possible for a casual guild , but aq was mostly impossible when you got to the twins so was naxx.

    There are game for every type of players , if you frustrated and you feel you need to defend the whole wow community don't you think you have become addicted yourself, i'm pretty happy that i sold my account personnally and quite amazed that someone paid 500$ for it.

    Wow, thanks Talara and to the OP for the honor!

    I have no idea where the OP fit into the other forum's discussion, but if someone's looking for an example to prove their mettle by showing how a WOW TG'er can be defeated in BG's and had to choose a screenshot where they managed to kill me (in my off-spec at that) and I'm still there kickin' out heals post-mortem to spite them, I guess I can deal with that :P

    I played for 2 and half years, I started on a pvp horde server took me like a year to get to 60 then we rerolled alliance on malfurion , we were a casual raiding (2-3 evening a week) guild but we were quite effective so we started the guild in november, we were rolling in mc in march then we go trough it maybe in june , then blackwing lair came around we got trough it pretty fast , maybe 1 month or so. Then we started aq got stuck around the tiwns , then the expension came out, i stopped playing. I had a mage with full tier 1 and 2 and a 60 rogue. I came back with less time the guild kersploded because of the expension :P.

    I went with a part of them did a bit of pvp and kara , so i guess when i sold it it was mostly in pvp gear and kara stuff. that was 6 month ago
