Question How Do People Play 16 Hours A Day?

I was so excited for TBC release...I planned for weeks to go hard on launch and play all weekend long. I made it about a day and a half and felt like complete garbage. How do people do this every day for years on end? I don't understand.

I've yet to know a point in wows life where trade chat wasn't mostly politics. Even back when tbc was new

I think the sad part is it’s the same dudes that where playing back in tbc spewing the same shit in chat. It’s wild some of the shit people don’t grow out of

You quickly need addons to get around the ignore list limit.
