Did someone from here try to contact me on my Yahoo address?
If so, they didn't identify themselves as being from here...
Heh, I did some Googling and it's most likely a solicitation from a spam harvester. It was just weird enough, and I have this address on a couple of forums, that I had to double-check.
Too bad, because the woman in the photos is quite attractive...

Gnomeregan. Level 80 gnome wizard and a fairly fresh level 80 shaman as well.
Actually, it was hitting 80 on my second character that caused me to realize how much time I was wasting playing the game. That was my first 180 -- I canceled my subscription and I haven't looked back.
I still keep in touch with a couple of guildmates, but not about the game. One of them is in a similar situation to me, actually...

I play too, and I'm considering canceling. Not sure if I should give my gold to a guildie or just let it be. I only have one 80. A hunter that I didn't even bother gearing out. I haven't played in several weeks though. I burned out.

My characters are exactly as I left them, gear and all. I figure that if the worst happens and we split up, it might be a cheap form of entertainment as I put my life back together.

I have no idea what happened to my reply??? Anyway, I agree WOW might be a waste of time, but so is pining away after our batshit crazy spouses.
At least gaming is fun. lol
No, they're quite different. Although I may have good memories of the game (and it is possible to build friendships around the game) ultimately the game is a collection of pixels and data. At some point, Blizzard will pull the plug on their servers and my gnome mage and draenei shaman will cease to exist. (And my blood elf paladin, and human rogue, and all the other characters I started but never really did anything with.)
The reason I stopped playing (besides having a bomb dropped on me) was that I found myself saying "I don't want to play anymore" and log out of my gnome mage, only to log in to my shaman and play for another hour or so. It was one thing to keep one character geared; now I was about to start building up a second one. It also meant that I had more options then just being a DPS class -- I was gearing my shaman as a healer, which meant I would have little problem finding a group.
What we're doing here has value. We either end up rescuing a relationship and making it better, or making ourselves better to find someone we deserve to be with if the relationship cannot be saved.

I didn't presume to think you were making light of it.
And gallows humor can be appropriate from time to time. No worries.
