Before you say troll/hater I have played WoW for 2 years and have two toons that were 2k+ and 6k+ PvE GS.
Ploppytheman/Revploppy on Cho' gall are my toons, armory if u care.
MMO's are the worst thing on the planet (gaming wise) because they are not based on fun they are based on doing a bunch of menial tasks for hours so you can do a "fun" task for a few minutes. The only reason I played WoW was for arena but I quit 2 months ago and got a SC2 Beta key one month ago.
The only good part about MMO's, and the only one that I know of is Arena in WoW. Arena is extremely fun, competitive, and just awesome (although buggy, Imba set ups vs imba classes vs imba effort). Finding good partners who are the right class, spec, gear, skill, time zone, attitude/ego, and not retards is extremely hard. I spent more time LF Teams than playing arena BY FAR. Everytime I played I was always limited by other people because they are idiots/lazy/bad. Also the server division and social aspects suck because unless you have RL friends who play Arena (none of my friends even play games at all) your basically screwed b/c RL > wow. 90% of the time I played Arena, and for two years, I was playing with slacking idiots. In fact I sold rating for gold because so many bads begged me to play. I realized I wasn't having fun, you have to spend way too much time grinding for crap just to PLAY, but there were no other games available that filled my "arena" desire. I should have quit and started playing SC1 but I felt why bother when SC2 will be here soon. Trolling wow and serious arena were the only things that kept me playing. I was a notorious troll and top PvPer and the trolling was just so fun, made wow worth playing, almost.
The point is MMO's suck, they are for people with no lives who are pleased by mundane tasks, they are work, they are not hard they just require memory (PvE), PvP is imba (in WoW). I have done PvE and its boring and EZ, battlegrounds are boring grinds that you can't really play with your friends, Q's, just... I can't even express my disgust with MMO's in full.

R Gaming is about fun. MMO's aren't. MMO's are like wandering in the desert for 40 years LF the promised land only to find more desert.
Playing SC2 I haven't even thought of playing wow except to tell my friends to quit wow and just play SC2. SC2 is highly competitive, balanced, no skill cap, few few bugs (esp compared to wow), and fun. I am already high plat and loving it. I don't have to spend 100hrs grinding my pvp offset and spend time doing PvE (which I hate) to get gear for PvP and then LF reliable people to play
MMO's are a waste of time and always will be because they are designed to waste time in large proportions. Gaming is already a waste of time, but at least its FUN. I think a lot of people use MMO's b/c they have no social life or think the game matters. I play games for competition or story/gameplay. I mean if you want to drink or smoke its worse than gaming, but MMO's are just like drinknig IMO. I'm not trying to say gaming is bad but you need to balance it with exercise and all the other stuff, MMO's don't allow that. If I can play maybe 6-8hrs of Starcraft 2 a week and maybe get a title or two every few months thats fine, but the face that DAILY QUESTS exist... I'm just gonna stop.
I hate MMO's so much I can't express it without a 20pg essay on it.

R MMO's make me go FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
