There are two types of players. The first type is the casual player (which most players start off playing as), while the second type is the hardcore "7hours a day--literally" type.
Casual players really don't get all that much out of the game play, as they are excluded from huge ass guild raids.
The effort it takes to get up to superb raiding par is fun, but it sucks up your entire life. Getting up to 60 is the easy part.
And you really have to stay for entire raids, or you won't find yourself in an endgame guild.
Once you get into that awesome guild and spend that raiding time (if you choose to do so), there comes a point when, you honestly get sick of the game. There's nothing left to do, except waste more time trying to build up rep w/ other races so you can ride another type of mount (it has the exact same stats, but it's just a different type of animal).
When I think of WoW, I get pissed at myself for playing. Yeah, for me, it's that bad.
Of course, there's going to be a zillion people who are like "no way, wow is great." And they're entitled to their opinion. Sure.
The wow population is dwindling. It'll spike up insanely once BC comes out, but it'll die again. It's just so boring, hunting for gear; and once u get that gear, not much changes. you'll be helping guildies hunt for their gear.
