Oh dear no... I can't stand fishing in real life!

I'm one of the folk who jump around leaving totems all over the place to give people free light shows.

That be me.

I'm #58 on the list of People in Your Raid.

Almost certainly bound to a convenient mouse button, this person will spend every possible moment jumping for no particular reason other than his own amusement. Often using the markings on the floor to see how far he jumps, he finds the tiled floor outside Ironforge bank, or the series of steps in the centre of Undercity especially temping. Most commonly afflicted by this condition are bored healers who are just grateful for a reason to look up from their raid bars for a moment. Related to the Bouncer.

Derivative

I used to play the likes of DOOM at age 8 and I think I've come out alright. That said, I wouldn't be too comfortable with my own kids playing CoD at such a young age (or indeed spending any considerable length of time on videogames).

Probably best waiting until 13-14, when he can easily differentiate fiction and real life.

Comments about Warcraft - I really do think these sort of games can have a good role in childrens development. Just a personal opinion though. A child can't really comprehend how their exam results will affect them in 20 years time, but a quicker paced game that still rewards hard work is a good thing IMO. Just have to be careful you don't spend 18 hours a day on it and drop out of sixth form.... oops, might want to stick those parental settings on

Can i recommend the achievement Bounce, you'll find it in Hyjal (can't spell it properly) next to the bears in the trees.


On a more serious note, yes i am a wow player too, and was in a dungeon, 4 guildies, we had a slot free so did the random player you can get from any server, and had the most obnoxious player ever, who claimed to be only 10, the fowl language ever, claimed he lived in sweden and his parents allowed him to play, he got kicked from the group, 1 for his language 2 if he was 10 he was very much unsupervised.

The guild are made up of family people, most have children who have grown up with this game, even met most of them in real life and made some good freinds. But the spamming in the cities gets really bad at half term, *sigh i wish more parents were more concerned of what their kids were up to.
