It’s not that I don’t believe a person can become addicted to World of Warcraft. I’ve lived a long life as a gamer, and know full well how they can suck you in. It’s just that this is so, well…here. Let me show you:
Find out what has caused your addiction. What makes World of Warcraft (WoW for short) so appealing to you? Is it the fact that it has different continents that you will never go to? Is it the fighting? Is it your unique role as a tank or a mage? Is it the happiness of ‘pwning noobs’? Whatever it is, try to minimize this happiness in WoW, and make it a pleasure that you could also get in every day life.
Unfortunately they fail to give advice for how to ‘pwn noobs’ in real life, although I’m sure there are ways. All I know is that I want to see someone actually yell out “PWNED!!!!” to a stranger in the supermarket or at Bed, Bath and Beyond.
Just Another Pretty Farce 
Well, I yell “PWNED” to my husband all the time in public for various odd things (often related to street dogs playing in the park), but somehow I feel it is lost on Greek ears.
Good advice, it wasn’t until I started arm wrestling my children that I was able to break the habit of pwning noobs in WoW.
And what is the correct pronounciation of “PWNED?”
