Where Politics And Video Games Collide

"Do people get pissed off if their electricity goes out on a night they are going to raid and call their electric company to complain that they can not get on WoW??"

Actually, I don't take any offense to that... however I do call them because I pay for their service and want it to work as intended. Now, I pay Blizz to support their server, when people log on and disrupt the server, it is akin to Nat'l Lampoon's Christmas Carol when Chevy Chase turns on the lights and blacks out the town. But not to such an extreme degree.

Long story short, if Blizz caused the lag I would be upset with them. However, under normal conditions, the servers work fine. This RP demonstration was not normal conditions, hence it was the problem. So I have sympathy for those who are upset at the problems caused.

@Mr. X

Didn't mean to insult, but it seems a lot of RP's supporters are not 28 year old law students. And to someone young, a couple years seems like a lifetime.

@ EZK

$15 a month, so think going to see two movies a month in the theater. However, for that $15 in the theater you get 3-4 hours. So roughly $4-5 an hour. Now, in WoW Say you put one hour a day, so 30 hours... $0.50 an hour. It is probably the cheapest form of "entertainment" outside of reading a book, cheaper still if you play to obsession like I used to. 6 hours a day, give or take. Now with that RL thing, that job thing, all that jazz, I am at less than an hour a week day.
