As a Horde player, I'm going to have to disagree with number 10.

I also can't believe that "annoying kids and gold sellers" weren't on the list. Then again, it's probably hard to limit it at 10 things when you've been playing the game since launch. Awesome game, but it has its problems just like any other.

Why? Because my mature 13-year-old sister would be thoroughly insulted by even more anti-youth sentiment in online gaming.

3 - Blizzard have alot to answer for
Some people have devoted their lives to wow thus having no social life and do very little else other than play it. Will these people look back in ten years and say why o why? or what a waste of ten years and 2k plus paying for subscriptions and other things look wow is good but very flawed i found myself being able to do very little at 80 cause i was guildless and they would have wanted me online certain times , no way , The game is so flawed you can buy awesome gear if you have the money without lifting a finger or have your character leveled which alot do because the levelling is repetitive and very boring.Look if you can find the willpower i suggest selling your wow account and buy some ps3/xbox games because the game is evil and i got €250 for mine bye bye wow happy days im saved.

That's not Blizzard's fault, that's the gamer's fault. And I'm damn proud of the family circle that I belong to in this game. It's strong enough to have brought us together in real life.

5 - wow is wow...
WoW was at its best when it was new, vanilla wow had a depth to it. The story was great, the raids pretty awesome, the classes even balanced. World pvp was fun and a guild weekly activity. With each expansion things go more to the gray. Wow is losing the vibrancy it used to have. I still play it, do my dailies daily to support my raiding addiction..damn u ulduar. There is always games coming out suppose to be wow killers, wow is wow, it's fan base is huge and it will continue to be a force in the mmo world for a while to come. Personally I am looking to play aion and leave wow, it bothers me that i'm playing a social game and all chat channels are turned off to avoid the high lvl's of douche baggery that floats around in chat. Wow is the popular game at the moment and (at least in my realm) there are more obnoxious asshats then ever, wow won't be taken over by another mmo, blizzard will kill it all on their own.

I think that Star Wars TOR will be the next amazing MMO. It will be the first that I really get into. Cant wait.

They just better have the same depth of character customization as Star Wars Galaxies.

8 - WoW will die....eventually
I agree with Panthers and may i add something extra.

Star Wars TOR will be the definitive MMO which will remove a hefty number of players from the WOW because lets face it, the game has lost its way over the years and frankly i will be more than happy to return to the PC-MMO scene just because the game is made by bethesda who to me are one of the most innovative companies in this decade.

Im not saying that Blizzard is bad in making games or anything but as a gamer (First), story-lover (Second) and consumer (Third) im glad that Star Wars TOR will try to mess with Blizzard's monopoly over the MMO scene because money has obviously rotted their brain cells.

9 - That's still a stupid complaint
"In a medieval fantasy MMORPG full of Mages, Paladins who call upon the Light to aid them in battle, and brutal plate-wearing Warriors, an alien race called the "Draenei" crash-landed their spaceship on an island located far off the Western coast of Kalimdor."

They're no more an alien race than little green men called Orcs and it's not a space ship for goodness sakes. Opening a portal to another world and letting the Orcs in is all fine and dandy but using a ship to cross that same barrier for lack of any other method is just "wrong"?

The Draenei were desperate. Essentially on the verge of being wiped out by the Burning Legions or agents of it they saw getting across to Azeroth and working with one of the factions that had actually beat the Burning Legion twice as their best and probably only option.

Besides, Draenei are awesome.

10 - One thing i hated about WoW: Cant transfere chars between servers =(
That really bumed me out...i joined a server...then my friends joined another server...and there i was alone...

Then my server was so ahead of me (lack of balance) tht i had to do most of it alone, until it became possible. Got boring fast....havent touched it in a year, and never will

My friend however flunked the last year of school and had to stay behind for a year to re-do it...
