Now I know why cynical gamers refer to World of Warcraft as ‘World of Warcrack.’

Apparently, some players are willing to do anything to achieve success in it, even if it means sacrificing precious commodities such as sleep, as reported here by Yahoo News.

Sadly, this long journey ended up with players becoming fatigued and sick as a result of their efforts, the leaders of the guild wanted to stop the suffering before it became a big deal. Sadly, I don’t think that they succeeded in that regard.

In fact, I think that they may have given ammunition to the guy that wrote this book. Gamepolitics referenced the author’s interview with Canada.com here. Gamepolitics’s excerpt can be found here.

So as not to sound like a broken record, I have already given my thoughts on his book in this post, suffice to say it, I think that he blows a lot of hot air.
