so how long do u guys typically play daily? Im usually too busy doing chores, sports, chillaxin, etc. to play WoW for very long, im only level 8. I really want to get to 60 tho cuz i imagine end gameplay is pretty fun.

I usually play 3-4 hours in the evening on weekdays from about 19.00-22/23.00 and then as much as possible in weekends which sometimes are a couple of hours, and other times are an entier saturday.
But Real Life does set its limits for it - luckily - otherwise WoW would get boring faster for me then many other MMOGs I think.

I used to play all of my free time. That's an average of about 4-5h per weekday and many more during the weekend. Lately I haven't been able to play anything though as I don't have an internet connection any more

That was me during the first week of the european beta. School hadn't started yet and I was just sitting about at home. I was one of the first on the server to reach level 40 and get my mount. Ahh those were the days. When the actual game was realeased though I was stuck, but not nearly as stuck as I was in BETA.

Jesus... that's the dark side of WoW, one can eaisly get addicted.
I had the last week off, I played soooooo much I can't even look at WoW now.. (I'm sure this disgust won't last for long, though

Well - it is hard for me to dedicate time to play on weekdays, and seeing as weekends are all about raiding the harder instances (Molten Core) I have a hard time equipping my character with items (rare you can get an instance group going before 21.00 CET, which leaves me about 2 hours before I'll log off due to work in the morning).
Although I do very well in MC with the guild, it does take something from the game, when you can't join in on weekdays, so I am thinking of stopping with WoW fully, and returning to single player games, and then keeping my eye on Dark n' Light to see what time I have when that is finished.

I've been forced to take a break over the summer (play an average of about 1h per week). This has really gotten me to see how much fun the game is, and it also gave me the time to distance my self from it and to get the urge back to play (as I was getting abit bored with trying to get to revered with argent dawn all day). So taking a break might be a good idea if you don't like gaming any more, or moving on to another game. The thing about wow for me is that most of my friends IRL play it as well, so it has become kinda like hanging out after school which makes it so much more fun and addictive

i know what you mean it can get very boring and slow but the thing is i dont want to make myself sound like an amazing gamer but i can complete most games i get in like two days there are just some which i cant and it annoys me so i play WoW knowing that im far off from completeing it but then trying to get level 60 after a while seems a bit repedative going out killing things come back do a quest go out slashy slash slash do another quest its the same stuff over and over sometimes

Well - if I had more time, then I'd no doubt still be playing. (But then again - I'd might have stayed with DAoC instead)
I still like raiding the high level instances but I dont' have the time to dedicate to this, so it leaves me little to do in the game, which then in turns get boring.
I like MMOGs, but the timespend is the biggest ressource needed, and it is one I don't have that much of anymore.
