Title: WoW !@#$% Has 36 Accounts, Raids by Himself

In what is perhaps the most shining example of obsession and geekiness I have ever seen, a fella by the name of Bradster has 36 World of WarCraft accounts that he plays on 11 computers simultaneously. He mainly seems to be doing it because he doesnâ€™t like to rely on so many other people to get a raid going, which includes attacking the Alliance capital cities, and on that front I can totally see where heâ€™s coming from.

I hate those Alliance douchebags too, but Iâ€™m not about to drop $5711 per year like Bradster is. The best way to get to them is to just live well, right? Well, Bradster doesnâ€™t appear to be letting the Alliance off the hook so easily, as he plans on picking up 36 copies of Wrath of the Lich King on day one, spending around $1500, just so he can have a raid group of level 80 Shamans terrorizing Stormwind as soon as possible.

LOL I really wonder where he gets his business.

Post by: TheDarkJay on October 12, 2008, 05:48:36 pm: Clearly he repeats business practices as I understand them in WoW, and stands on a street corner shouting "WILL DANCE 4 GOLD!!!"

I doubt it. If he has that much cash, I can bet you he's already used a bit on some hookers.

Post by: Krynn on October 13, 2008, 06:07:38 pm: Haha, I play WoW but I only have one level 70 Warlock with full t6, if you know what that is it means its pretty good. But I only play like 4-5 hours a day on monday, wednesday, and sunday. The rest of the time im out with friends or doing something useful.

Post by: Pyru on October 13, 2008, 08:56:47 pm: 15 hours a week? Wow.

Even when I played WoW I didn't have that much patience.

... to be honest, the game is a lot more fun at the beginning, and later on it dissatisfied me so much. I got on the WotLK beta, and the Death Knight quests are fun, but once you're done with those, you go straight into ordinary late-level-50 questing. Which is sooooo dull.

Post by: bertfallen on October 13, 2008, 09:16:48 pm: WoW Is alright. but I dunno how people get so addicted to it. I enjoyed it, but found no obsessive gameplay feature to it.

I stuck it till about level 14 and now its at the point where I'll play it maybe once a month?

Post by: Lindgren on October 13, 2008, 11:00:34 pm: WoW always bored me.
But this is just retarded. Playing one account was too much of a commitment for me. I don't know how I'd ever play 36.

Post by: Hammer Bro. Mike on October 14, 2008, 08:32:59 pm: I don't give a crap about WoW but I have to say that's just ridiculous and lame. 36 accounts? This is what WoW is doing to people and maybe it will kill off a few people so less homes have to be built over forests and crap and.... lost my train of thought. :-\

Post by: Krynn on October 14, 2008, 11:48:35 pm: Well once you actually get to level 70 (on the way there is a bit daunting at times), and you get a good guild and start raiding end game content its reaaaallly fun. I'm also looking forward to wotlk I think it will be awesome. You tell me you don't spend at least 15 hours a week on some type of hobby that you have :P
