Hey, I quit this game about a year ago, but now that the expansion is coming out and I know people who play it and they talk about it all the time and sometimes I get glimpses on the tv and stuff and it really makes me wanna go back and play it again but I know that probably isn't a good idea but wow I have this incredible urge for some weird reason.

any help in not going back to that game?

well for me, i realized that WoW was just a work simulator where you do the same meaningless things over and over, only to have your work not matter once the new expansion comes out. and yet you still pay for it every month. i got out of it after a year.

another thing that worked for me(although it probably doesn't work as well for others) was the fact that i'm more into leveling up rather than caring about gear. once i reach max level on a character, i get bored quickly. raids that last hours for getting gear are not my idea of fun.

at least it's not a never-ending game.

Fill your gaming computer up so it has no more free space.
This way you can't play even if you wanted to since it won't fit d:
I guarantee you this expansion is going to take up a sh-tload of gigs
I heard its going to be on a DVD instead of the several normal CDs

and think about all that money you'd be saving
and time you can spend doing something way better
