So sad. Money is being wasted on a poor excuse for a game.

How bout playing the darn game before trashing it.

You can't say that once you play it. Opinion isn't even an issue here.

If you hated it after a couple of hours, you seriously lack an attention span.

Or you're just hating it because you're joining the WoW sucks bandwagon.

No.

It was boring, and all you do is grind. It's just not a fun experience.

I had major connection problems, and I didn't like the setup for spells & stuff, but other than that, I liked it.  It's just when I tried to cross continents (started as a elf dude), it didn't work because it lagged out and I could never log back in. :|

Why would they play runescape?

WoW=generally older kids and adults w/ their own money

WoW=good

Runescape=terrible game little kids play because they have no money

RS=bad

unless you're saying how many of those made the transition from runescape, i guess not many, though they are all pathetic. (exWoW player with the ability to QUIT even before his time ran out)

Exactly. The same as any other MMO game I could get for FREE. Plus, remember the number one rule of gaming!

"THOU SHALT NOT PAY MONTHLY FOR ONLINE GAMES. IT IS NOT WORTH IT."
