    Personally, I think WoW is a bit like coffee... there's no such thing as too much. If I'm shaking, it means I've let my tolerance slip, and probably need more.

    How stupid! You don't need climb markers to go up stairs. Every time you play the climb card you gain one step.

    Hi Blue Baroni. I can see that I am just a beginner when it comes to playing too much.However, I am starting to hallucinate, I thought that there was a woman in front of your aircraft spoiling the view, but when I looked again all I could see was the plane, so I guess I am O.K. after all.

    You Know You Play Too Much WoW When... You cancel a WoW Match because of a cloud of vulcano ash...

    unserious: Is it reasonable to play WoW at times like this? My two cents: Yes it is! Prop-planes are not effected by the ash! Good night to all...

    Hi Bruno.
    We had no choice here in England. All our aircraft were grounded by order of the Government. They would not know an air screw from their.... jet engine.

    Hell, I've been here 9+ years and never saw this thread.

    You know you play too much (not possible) Wings when you put your car into a stall while pulling into the driveway.
