[QUOTE="PC360Wii"]

[QUOTE="Shan15"]cause she was leveling a character for one of my friends, and stuff, and i was pissed cause i wanted to talk to her and she was just playing to level his stupid character up. But i dont know the name of the toon, i jsut know its an ally rogue i think, night elf. But thats all i know. Thats why i was getting pissed off, she was just completely ignoring me for a stupid game -_-. Im a hardcore gamer, and even i dont do that. Shan15

You know what youve done is basically steal from her right? .... you have no choice in what she does. The girl im currently dating right this minute is playing Final Fantasy 11... I'm not obsessing becayse she said "I'l talk later Evasion tanking @_@" ....

How possesive can you get? You have no right.

well i can understand if she would be into some good games, or soemthing.

But WoW? how lame can you get?

my cousin actually broke up with ehr bf cause he played it wayyy to much.

TRoll confirmed. People have different tastes. This story is fake.

We should al buy graphic whore games hat last 5 hours and have the most linear online ever ( Gears ) instead should we? :roll:

Things I find funny about this topic:

You posted from an alternate account

You pretend this isn't a trolling topic, until people start proving it is, then you begind admitting it

Your "girlfriend" stopped playing almost 2 weeks ago yet you started an argument (apparently) over this game just yesterday

You played 30 levels of the game you hate

You called it linear.

-Unreal-

well i was a member here a GS before, actually twice, but both those accoutns got banned from the forums xD

and it isnt a trolling topic, ill admit i hate wow, but i just want to know what i should do about this stupid situation im in.

i started teh arguemnt of the account she was leveling ans stuff.

the only reason i played was because she wanted me to, so i gave it a shot...and hated it.

and it is linear...no question about it.

For a start, you need to look up the meaning of linear and figure out the relation of the word to games.

As for your comment on "i started teh arguemnt of the account she was leveling ans stuff", I don't even know what you're trying to say there.

She stopped playing the game a while ago and you started an argument (or so you say) about the game just yesterday.

And yeah, this is definately a trolling topic, you admit it, then you deny it, make up your mind what you want to stick with, but we all know what your intentions were when you started the topic.

Give her the account back, just tell her that you want her to spend time with you too.

[QUOTE="bedram793"]Well, how did you cancel her account if you weren't paying for it?musclesforcier

He probably has easy access to her account information.

Canceling her account which she pays for is a bad idea and will most likely make her mad. That is not the way to fix this problem. There is nothing wrong with her liking WoW, you should be glad she is into video games. You just need to explain to her that she needs to limit the amount that she plays, humans > games.

First thing though, reactivate her account. That was a very immature thing to do.

delete her character or you will never get laid only way

I somehow doubt this is true... if it is...

Seek help, medical help. It sounds like some completely immature, controlling and vendictive behavior (see paychopath for referance)

If I was her, and someone did that to me, I'd dropkick the sucker into next week!

but honestly I think this is a joke...

So i need your guys help.

You see my girlfriend is an avid WoW player and has been playing for 2 years i think?

And yesterday we got over a fight about it -_-

a fight over WoW...amazing huh?

but anyways she thinks its this wonderful game and its like the greatest thing ever since sliced bread.

and she was raving about the new expansion coming out.

but i told her it was complete garbage and that it was boring and repetitive, and had no depth to it.

So she gets all butt hurt about it.

And mind you, i've played WoW just to please her, and stopped at lvl 33ish cause i got sick of it.

So anyways yesterday, i ended up cancelling her wow account, and set up come parental controls on it so it wont ever let her play, and changed her password and email to my own.

i was just wondering what i should do now?

should i just give it back to her and let her play?

or wait it out and see what happens?

Shan15

Ok...hears what it sounds like.

It doesnt sound like she's addicted to WoW and wont do anything else, but rather, you hate the game, and she loves it, so you argue about it all the time.

You have a problem if your so pissed that she enjoys WoW. And you take it to the point where you canceled her account, did some crap with parental controls, and changed her password and her email to yours.

Your being a jerk. Let her play, you have no right to take away something she enjoys just because you dont enjoy it.

I hope she breaks up with you. :roll:

What I'd do for a GF that plays video games.. and yet here, you try and stop her.. Tsk Tsk TC! :P

If it was my GF, I'd let her play as long as it doesn't affect her responsibilities like working! If it's affecting the relationship where all she wants to do is play WOW and not go out, then you guys might have to sit down and talk to each other, in a civilized fashion. No need to argue like little children. That get's you no where. You're better off walking away and cooling off.

I would give back her account. What you did is controlling, and you're basically babying her. The last thing anyone wants in a relationship is someone who is a dictator and control freak that tells the other person what to do. Do that more, and she won't be around any longer. Unless she likes that sorta thing? Which I highly doubt..

The tiny shred of faith I have in humanity prevents me from believing this story. You're treating your girlfriend like she's your child, and she hasn't broken up with you?

If this is true, there isn't any way out of this situation, you're just incapable of comprehending a romantic relationship. You need serious help, and the Gamespot PC forum isn't where you're going to find it.

If it's not true, work on your form. Tone down the sheer ridiculousness of your story and try again another time.

All I can say is the whole cancelling account and stuff, was wayyyyyyyy outta the spectrum of take-able action. I'm not so sure she's gonna take to that very kindly. So I'd try and fix that, right quick. Really though, you should let her play, now, mind you. If she's like playing ungodly amounts so she doens't even like spend time with you, talk to her about that, but don't attack her, and insult the game, that'll just upset her more.

You're both 17?

Get back to us when you've both aged about ten years, can vote, drink legally, and have fully developed brains.

To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if she just left you for being a closeminded controlling **** If you did that to her after a fight, she's probably wondering what else you could do.

Assuming she doesn't leave you/vows you'll never get laid again, just give her the game back and let her have her fun.

Mosedeke1

no kidding.... if he did that after a fight, he is a very vindictive person.... you dont just DO that to someone you care about, you sit down and talk, and try to work it out. if you cant work it out, then you guys just arent right for eachother and you should move on. either way, if she seems "addicted" you should ask her to seek help. if she refuses, then you have done all that you can, and again, you should move on.... 55% of the worlds population is female... im sure there is someone else out there for you.

This couple is at the ripe old age of....17.

Teenie love melodrama = yawn.

Nothing to see here for another ten years, when both of them have brains and won't even remember each other's names.

Move along, move along.....

A. by doing that you just basically ended the relationship ... going behind a partners back and doing something they dont want you to do IS SELFISH ... i dont care what you think about her habits ... that was selfish and immature.

B. "but i told her it was complete garbage and that it was boring and repetitive, and had no depth to it." Dont ever say something like that anyway ... its not true and its so freaken biased i can see how she got upset ... so what its not the game for you ... if thats all you have in common im sorry ... From what you wrote i see nothing about her "addiction" other than the fact that she likes it a lot ... seems like you have a control problem and or are so opinionated your never gonna get her to see your side anyway.

Long story short ... your a friggen #($#$(# for cancelling her account because A it was immature and B its against the law to mess with someone elses creditcard transactions anyway .... GROW UP

I would say your trolling just to bash WoW. But if not.... good luck doing that in a few years time.... a more mature woman would eat you alive.

That being said, Halo and Gears are boring compared to WOW, GTFO :P





hell no, gears and halo 3 kill WoW. Wow is so linear and repetitive that its sad people pay just to play that pathetic game.



and this topic is partially about WoW bashing, but also the whole situtation is true.



Its funny, you say WoW as no depth, yet you name the 2 most noob friendly basic mainstream/casual orientated shooters on the market :lol: bravo.





think what you want, but WoW is the most casual freaking game ever.

And its highly overrated in every way and form. Blizzard just milks people for money...look at Diablo 3 (i was very excited about the game until the "microtransactions" and autostat BS) and also Starcraft II, a trilogy? wtf?make us pay 3 times for 1 game?



but anyways yea, im gonna see what happens when she wakes up :P





Welcome to halo and Gears of war ... talk about OVER rate and casual .... THESE TWO GAMES (not including Guitar Hero) Single handedly got 99% of college frat boys and gamer wannabes to think they are the gaming pwnstars .... these games alone have wrecked my gaming career as everyone thinks halo is the epitomy of FPS ... (rofl). "linear and repetitive" i think that describes halo3 online pretty well (oh and glhf paying 30$ [1/2 original game price] for 9 maps .... R O T F F L ... )

Umm, yeah. why not let her play, its something she likes doing. and just because you think its a stupid game, doesnt mean she can't play it. You seem very controlling. Tisk Tisk. If i were a girl and you did that to me, id think about dumping your ass. : P

Ooh my man, doing that and cancelling her account is NOT the way to go. If a boyfriend were to do that I think I may just punch him ( even though that wasnt a problem for me, my x and I played WoW together actually). Talk to her about it, I know it sounds gay but trust me, all of that dose work for the most part with women, like a one to one convo about it.

And voila, suck it up or get a pissed gf your choice

First and foremost, this has nothing to do with WoW.

Your girlfriend really likes something so you take it away from her? You fail, period. If you can't see this you REALLY need help and if she's still with you then she REALLY needs help.

Wait so you are angry at a game that has kept your girlfriend busy, which has most likely lead to her hardly ever bothering you? I am quite sure many many guys wish they had this kind of problem.

If I was as dumb as you are when I was 17 I would of been ashamed, though thats assuming your intelligent enough to know how dumb you are.

Assuming this isn't a joke topic, then get a new girlfriend. If she wants to play WoW rather than be with you there is something wrong with the relationship.

Maybe she just has the uncontrollable hots for the horde?
