WoW.. I’m not reffering to the usual gesture of expressing amazement. It’s an acronym for the multiplayer online game-World of Warcraft.

World of Warcraft

I personally don’t know much of the game, don’t intend to know, don’t want to try. Why? Because I’ve seen enough victims out there. Go try Google and YouTube WoW, there’s plenty of news regarding addicted players.

I’m now one of the victims of WoW, indirectly a victim. My newly met assignment group member is a WoW addict. He literally play it 24/7, he confessed.

Every time I meet him when there’s an assignment due, he will tell me he hasn’t finished it and there’s lot to be done. I totally regret of getting into a group with him.

Luckily enough that this assignment that I’m suppose to work with him is managable, for now. What should I do? I’m suppose to ditch him and report it to the lecturer, but I’m not bad enough to tell him off.

I pity these addicts, they are slowly disconnecting themselves from the reality. This groupmate of mine shows me THIS when we were discussing about our assignment in the lab. It seems that prostitution in MMORPGs are very common now. Should we be concern about the younger generations getting their hands dirty when farming for virtual gold?
