World of Warcraft Seems Like Kind of a Silly Hobby

[wraggster]

World of Warcraft player/dorkmaster supreme Prepared has caved to his smack addiction-like dependence on WoW and created 36 separate accounts that he plays simultaneously on an epically ridiculous rig. He claims to spend over $5700 per year just on the game, and plans to pick up 36 copies of the new expansion pack Wrath of the Lich King when it's released.

It's no different than owning like 36 cars each with separate insurances and shit. Rich people do that all the time...owning more than one house is pointless too...yet people do that too.

Let the guy be, if he can pay for it who are we to judge him and tell him he needs help.

That's a little different.
At least you're getting outside, etc.
In my opinion, playing 36 World of Warcraft accounts simultaneously is just a waste of life.
Still, if it's what he wants to do, let him be.
