Show us your /age command!

You have playd this char 131 hours over the past 5 montsh. Across all chars you have played 257 hours! ive got the ubar pwn RL! not realy, those hours where spent the 2/3 first weeks.. just started playing again

Having just started WoW recently, I can tell you one easy difference. I feel like I HAVE to play WoW a certain amount each week to justify the fee. Whereas with GW, I don't feel bad about not playing it for a few days, or even weeks at a time.

i only played for like 180 hours so far lol

I'm at 180ish total, and i can't imagine playing for over a thousand hours. I feel that ive played a lot, and to play something crazy like ten times that is insane.

For the OP's questions:

Yes, I feel GW is MUCH better than WoW or SWG (never played Evercrack). I agree with Aracos' idea that, since there is no monthly fee and the game world is not changing constantly, I can leave for a week or two and come back to my characters and be in the same position as I was when I left (no maintenance, no fame lost). Nothing happened in the game world significantly while I was gone. And since we're capped on levels at 20 and it's so easy to get to that level, I feel GW wins out again in ease of play/grind/leveling.

For the last week, I've played about 2-3 hours a night, since I've been trying to cap some monk skills. But on average, I will play 2-3 hours about 3 nights out of the week, with about 2-4 additional hours on the weekend. I do not think I play for too much time, BUT like Mister Overhill alluded to, I still feel guilt every now and then that "Maybe I could be doing something better with my life..." Then the apathy sets in again and I'm happy.

Absolutely not. I am against the buying and selling of items out-of-game.

Great idea, I'll definately be asking my Guildies for (rare max) items at Christmas

I won't, however, be asking Father Christmas to send 500k GW gold down the chimney...

im a pretty addicted gamer, ive spent around 200+ hours all together, i average aorund 2-3 hours a day, though if something is good on the telly, id rather that over GW

I've done over 700+ hours over the past 6 months, but i cant calculate each character (i keep deleting them). I do think GW is addictive to a level, its just like smoking some can go cold turky others can never quit, the addiction levels vary from people to other people, i heard it has somthing to do with the front part of your brain and a doppelmen or something like that.

My stroy is....Once i get home, i turn the computer on play GW, go off and read the forums, have dinner (all that stuff) then play till 11pm. I can stop when ever i want it's just, if i did stop then i would be watching TV, and i already watch TV while playing GW.

I think the only time that you are playing too much is when you play nonstop like the girl in china (i think she is from there) who played WoW for 3 days nonstop and died.

holy!!! do u have a job or u go to school??? 14 hours a day :O

rofl nice one (posted on my locked thread) I watched the intervention show on AnE with the gamer guy (trust me im not gay like him or a douchebag like that), heh maybe I do need an intervention =p, my mom gets uber pissed when I play to like 2 in the morning ^_^, but hey I still have a 3.6 gpa in school in my second semester of college so I tell her to suck it. I dunno I been like this for 7 or 8 years or so whenever sega or super nintendo came out im 17 now, I get so much fkn fun out of video games its like the best high to me over sex and all , lol I know you guys wont believe me which I dont blame ya, but I do have friends and even had a gf in high school I just rather play video games,probably discussed too much of my personal life but hey I don't care =O
