Two of my best friends have come from that game, I have never met either face to face, but it doesn't matter. <BR/><BR/>Later this year at Blizcon we will meet for the first time. I know by talking to them if things are going right or wrong in RL ... they know the same. <BR/><BR/>The Social skills learned through the game can, and I am going to assume are for the younger people playing carried out into the world ... the effects go both ways, and possibly in a bigger fashion than any of us ever expected.Knurdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14445754400253403255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3021331397590246947.post-10763066840178813442008-07-23T10:22:00.000-04:002008-07-23T10:22:00.000-04:00A wonderful post, where you're catching the amazin...A wonderful post, where you're catching the amazing feeling you get of the game. After playing it for a year and a half, it's still sort of growing in my mind. I've found new sides of myself I'd never ever have imagined were there. I've made friends with the most unlikely kind of people.<BR/>We all wander different paths and sometimes they unite for a while, sometimes we split. And it's ok actually! We've all got to find our roles as you say, our place in the WoW-world.<BR/><BR/>Sadly enough it's quite hard to explain this experience to the people outside of the community. So in that aspect I think it's kind of hard to mix the two worlds I live in. Yes, real life sneaks into Azeroth, but it doesn't quite go as easily the other way.Larísahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05769822260333419777noreply@blogger.com
