WoW is completely based around time spent playing. This is an unhealthy concept because the countless hours spent on the game by people who play the end game is time completely wasted. I don't consider normal games to be a waste of time. Everyone needs time to nothing and have fun, thats why we play games in the first place. But when I hear people say, 'I raid 50-60 hours' per week, I often also see a complete lack of social life, and an exercise which has no product in the real world being given job-like hours.
Aside from the fact that I dislike the concept in general, the game is easy. You play huge amounts of time in repetitive situations, for aquisition of advancement/items. It's at the bottom of the food chain in terms of intellectual activity and has never improved anybody.

jesus christ guys... READ THE OP damnit...
i didn't ask what you think about wow. i don't give a CRAP, specially if u didn't even play it but only relay on 3rd party information.
i didn't ask about why you stopped playing it, or why u keep playing it.
i asked: as eve players, how does world of warcraft affect you in a way that makes you HATE wow or it's community. if you don't have any personal experience that makes you "hate wow" or you are a "wow hater" but don't actually have any argument to back up that hate... don't even post here. everything else can be posted in one of the gazillion of "wow vs eve" posts out there.
Well this is stupid. I suppose as a regular forum user and eve player, WoW hasn't effected me at all. What do you even want here? WoW came into my house naked and beat me up?

try reading the OP next time:
what i want? i want to PROOF that all this nonsense and stupid WOW HATE in the eve-community is ABSOLUTELY and TOTALLY without argument.
i dare to say that all this "wow haters" are as bad as white racists who hate black people "just because they are different"
as for now, this post is proving me right.
Most people complaining about WoW here are people who have enough basic internet experience to know what it's about. And Eve holding a contrasting basic philosophy results in there being a general distaste for WoW in the community.

so, let me translate this (this is just an example):
some of the 300K eve players have seen (or heard elsewhere) about the wow forums, where 8.5M players go and whine. (ergo, the whines are much more than in eve)
thus, their conclusion is that wow = bad, and they know this without even spending a couple of month in wow. they know this because "the internetz sais so"... not only they form their opinion based on this, but they also form a HATE against anything related to wow...
and i ask: how stupid is that?
i am yet to see ONE... ONE wow player, saying anything against or about the eve community, the eve forums, or the game itself... but it's the eve players who call them "kids, immature, carebears" and whatelse...
It dosn't matter what we say here does it? You've already labeled eveyrone as irrational WOW haters, and you said earlier that you're just looking for proof of this.

You should also bear in mind that WoW is used as an example of games which are less harsh than eve because it represents the paradigm of the philosophies common to the fantasy mmo genre.
You posted this thread asking why eve players demonstrated such a dislike for wow, and have complained consistantly about people drawing comparisons. You sir, are an irreprievable moron.
