I think if you played WoW for 6 months it's hard to say that you got bored 'quickly', I mean how long do you play most games for, a month, maybe two? Everyone gets bored of the same game after a while, it just seems that with WoW they often come back.

As of today they claim 10mil active users. Phttttht! Not even close to being a truth. I played WoW for almost six months and quickly got bored with it. I know of several dozen people who have quit playing for the same reason. MMORPG's are old news. We want some thing new. Blizzard is lying. As of today they claim 10mil active users. Phttttht!

I've played WoW for 30 months. I've left it this very month too. Reasons were the same of the post above. I got almost 30 years old, i could afford other 30 years of paying WoW but blizzard just havent keep up with promises: Burning Crusade was again a game for rich kids with loads of time. And endless, since soon The Wrath of Lich King. Casuals are out. Personally, I'we switched to EVE online. Way more relaxing... I am from Italy. I’ve played WoW for 30 months.
