Video Games and Mind Control - Word of Warcraft More Addictive than Crack

three words RPG. its not real....

RPG, It is NOT Real, But it FEELS Real.

The Same Endorphins are released every time you accomplish a GOAL, KILL something, Farm Something, Collect some Treasure.

IT IS a steady state of feel good, for Hours on end.

IT PROGRAMS you to want to keep doing it, to reach out in the Virtual World for the NEXT BIG Score, Level, Magic Item, Ability gained to make the game more fun.

He's right. I played for almost 8 years before I realized ...

Will I be telling my kids or grandkids one day about all the years I spent playing a video game?

For no real accomplishment other than the rush of playing ...

If the power goes out in America EMP or Solar Flare, Millions of people will be in horrible withdrawl for weeks and months.

Not to mention all those that are on Antidepressant, SSRI type drugs and sleep aids that will snap, when they no longer have their mind altering chemical bath everyday to make them into good little zombies.

God save anyone around them. All the School shootings, and People killing their kids will go through the roof.

I used to play, quit 3 different times.

I still had dreams about World of Warcraft.

I lost touch with all my friends that did not play the game, After I quit the last time I lost touch with my one friend I had left, He stayed in the game.

I think about how much good, I could have done for myself, my family and the World if I had never started to play the game.

How much better of a person I could have been.

Pin this, Virtually of course.

So is GLP OP but of course We all live in denial...

....m...mmo.....its a reminder of a cool perma....can beat it tough with a patch that has battlefield and dirt and

..........wow.

I really liked lvl 1 to 80 .....solo heroics after and pug loots and well all the bosses suck and interaction in a raid sucks and blahblah best

The moon lo .... Was or could be goldshire.

I like wow alot, and I can say it's much safer than drugs or crack :p

Is this the WoWanon meeting?

.

I finally quit but I lost much of my 20's. I want my 20's back. I wish I could go back in time when I was in college and tell myself not to start.

lol it's not more addictive than crack

Thanks for exposing this, did you listen to the first half of radio show?

As bad as Crashing off of World of Warcraft, and if the EBT Food Stamps are shut off, those believe it or not are not the biggest problem or threat, It is Crashing off SSRI, Antidepressants. (This single reason alone explains why US Military are NOT allowed to carry Loaded weapons on Military Bases.70-80% of Active Duty Veterans are now on Antidepressants and Mind Altering Drugs. Under Stress or sudden withdrawal from the SSRI Drugs and people Snap and Start Killing Others, their families, selves, strangers.

5000+ of stories, the Drug company controlled media won't tell you about.

You can't single out WoW.

I experienced the same thing in the 90's with "Magic: The Gathering" which is nothing more than a card game.

I got in early, and enjoyed the game and it brought a lot of fun to our social circle (Nerds, yes) but gradually I watched friend after friend start spending hundreds and hundreds of dollars on individual cards, cases of cards, to the exclusion of all else.

When I began to see this I sold all of my cards and got out. Most of those guys still play to this day, but they managed to reign it in a great deal. (The game is stupid now, complicated boring cards, less addictive.)

All the games with Windows XP cannot be played now.

I done 5 years playing EVE ON LINE. Very addictive.
Managed to quit this year.
The company who runs it is called Crowd Control Productions.

Running Away from Reality - (World of Warcraft)

Living in a matrix of lies, that makes one feel Strong, successful and in control (you can die, and be back to life fighting for your next adrenalin kick in less than one short break, or just slightly longer if the graveyard is far from your point of last death.

I know one thing, you never see kids or young adults outside anymore. They are glued to a screen.

I like to play 1 player games like Last of Us or Uncharted, etc. They are like a virtual movie, great experience but then it ends and you move on. In fact I enjoy these kinds of games more than movies lately (most new movies are so fkin bad)

Taren mill pvp warlord title. . .some of you know what it means. . . With burning crusade I realised. . . Theres is only one chalenge. . . $15 a month. . .
Now i club seals in warthunder. . .when time permits. .and its free.

WoW and MMORPGs in general are pretty much dead now. The new thing is MOBAs like LoL and DOTA2.
MOBAs are basically just the fighting part of MMORPGs mix with a sport type gameplay that is similar to Baseball.

The attraction is that there are many characters to play as and you level them up during the duration of a game which lasts less than an hour.
So yes, its MMORPGs for people with short attention spans.

I'm not really into them. I play once in a while but I'm still into FPS games.

The average player's age is 28 - 35, and female players tend to be a few years older than male players. So our youth is saved from World of warcraft! Their players are already ruined!

Umm you don't have unlimited anything, but anyways..

It's metaphorically addictive I guess, I use to put in retarded hours for it, but unlike substance abuse, your still able to prioritize your life. I've also had an opiate addiction, so i can tell you.

You will goto work after a night of warcraft.

You won't goto work the next day without opiate.

It's a fun GAME, fucking overrated on so many levels.
