I've been contemplating it for a long time now, and I'm kinda glad that I've done it. I made myself a blog.
I'm not sure how often I plan on updating this - and it may not be as interesting as others (loljade/jago), but it's somewhere for me to vent my anger and let people know how I'm feeling.
Okay. So right now, I'm chilling with Boney in shatt, just talking about the game and stuff. He's cancelled his account now. That's another friend of mine that's decided to leave, the numbers are dwindling and it saddens me. Right now, it is my mid-year exam week. I'm really unhappy with myself, as tommorow, I have two exams. One of which is incredibly important - but I havn't studied for either of them. Why? Simply because I've been too busy playing an online game. This to me, defines addiction. I'm more worried about how much defense my toon has than my marks at school.
If I ever was contemplating quitting, now is the time which is pushing me the most.
So anyway, I'm sure none of you really care about what's going on in my real life, so I'll tell you more about my in-game agendas. MY (yeah that's right Majinn) warrior, is getting geared to tank raids (eventually). I need 8 more defense and I'm just about set to start. There are alot of slots in my gear that can still be improved, but this will give me a very solid base. However I'm having alot of trouble coming into this last 8 defense. All I need is one more piece of armour (LOL U) and I am un-critable in raids. Mech hates me. Shadow labs hate me. Every goddamn instance that could drop it for me, hates me.
If I was to start tanking raids, this would theoretically mean that I have taken part in every aspect of the game. Currently I've healed, ranged DPS'd and melee dps'd, so tanking is the only thing left I havn't tried. So far in 5 mans instances and such I'm enjoying it alot and I feel like I'm doing fairly well at it too. There's still quite a bit that I can improve on, but I'm doing okay.
Majinn, Zurosk and I killed two 5 man bosses for quests yesterday, which was great fun, especially running around avoiding the three giant elite demons and praying he wont spawn another. There's soo many things that I have done in this game that I enjoy and wont ever forget, that's one of them. I really think that the thing that keeps me playing this game is the people. Not just my friends and guildies and such, but also the people I don't like that keep me entertained and laughing at their futile attempts at insults and starting drama.
Well this is the first of possibly many more to come, so I hope you stick around to read them, and that I didn't bore you too much!

Bore me more, pls. Glad you started one, Jez. It's actually a really nice outlet when you need one.
As for quitting, I went through the same thing weeks ago. I felt like I needed to give my RL more attention (which I did need to do), and decided WoW wasn't a priority. I sent everything in my bags to the guild, including my gold, and canceled my subscription.
After a few days of adjusting my priorities, I found that I still had an amazing amount of free time (even while at work). So, I picked the game back up again, but now, it's not a priority. I leave when I have to, or even when I don't have to, and it's kinda nice that way.
I hope you find that balance too, cause I don't know what I'd do without my "what the hell was that sound?" game on vent. :)
Jezza.. I wuv you.
Don't let the game get the best of you. Even I, as a GM, have to make balance. And that is a very hard thing to do considering I LOVE taking care of my guild and I don't mind farming for them.
WTF @ jezza playing horde.
It seems we'll never be the same faction at the same time. ):
TLDR
Summary please.
