Long enough that my /played time relative to the number of years has become a much healthier number ratio.

I probably had 200 days in my first 4 years and in the last 14 I doubt that has doubled

I was definitely playing before Burning Crusade. I just don’t know which patch it was, can’t remember.

I was in Highschool when Vanilla came out and only could ever play the 2 week trial over and over on burner accounts until my mom caved and bought my brothers and I a real account (we did chores to earn the monthly sub). I didnt actually know how to play my shaman until Wrath tho, just thought whatever gear had the most “armor” was best lol

Been here since late vanilla start of BC myself. I’ve taken maybe two breaks from the game but still been here ever since. Still rather funny how crazy and mad people getting about delayed maintenance after all this time, one person i think threatened to sue for not being able to play the game for a day which is insanely entitled lol.

On and off since March 2005. I played all through vanilla, then quit a few weeks into TBC (life fell apart). Came back for 3.3. Quit again a couple of months into MoP (guild fell apart). Came back sometime during WOD, but never did any organized raiding again. Thank goodness for M+.
