Please go into your bathroom. Go in front of the mirror. Take a good long look into your own eyes. Tell yourself that there is more to this life than getting badges from a game. Now, go to the beach, read a book, get coffee with your mom. Anything! Just please, log out.

an elitist is anyone who plays more than you? believe it or not, people can spend less OR MORE time than you playing and still have a life outside the game. your standards are not the measuring stick to which we must all base our own schedules.

"Now, go to the beach, read a book, get coffee with your mom. Anything! Just please, log out."

At the beach, you'll be taking hits from UV way radiation above recommended level this time of year. Not to mention algal bloom, tsunami, poisonous jellyfish, shark attacks... And coffee has never been good for you.

Why would spending said time in WOW be any less healthy than these options?

Okay, I'm done them all now, ~6 hours. Now I'm going down to the gym, which I doubt you've ever done JS.
