I can't wait until this film comes out. It will be nice to have something to show my family to explain why I find a joy in raiding. That I'm not talking to imaginary friends on the internet =S

There are some people, my ex was one of them, to whom anyone on the internet is always an imaginary friend. Somehow, they are worth less and care about them less simply due to how they met and communicate. He never understood why I went to RL meetups or talked to these people on Vent even if I wasn't in-game. They were never "real" friends because they were on the internet.

Yeah, one of the myriad of reasons why he's my "ex".

I should also mention, he played WoW too and in fact was the one who got me into WoW. So it's not like he didn't understand what raiding was or why I connected with these people. He simply saw them differently than I did.
