I got a free 2 week trial cd when I bought the warcraft 3 battleset (cause I got busted using my cousins CD key online).
I've heard some really nasty addiction stories about this game, should I play it, or burn the cd? (in a fire, not copy it)

I was addicted to this game for a year or so.... it's a lot of fun.. but takes a lot of time away from poker.. and friends, and girls, and family, and eating, and showering... and... yeah pretty much your whole life.
But I voted yes.

http://stillserious.ytmnd.com/ this one is very good too. WoW is a serious business.... and uh, I guess NSFW due to loud swear words being spoken by a crazy azn.

I gave it up, way too addictive for me personally. Would rather spend my time on a hobby like poker that produces money instead of spending it =P
Great game though.

That's why you put it up for as short as you can, at a very good price with buy it now and use different e-mail addresses for your ebay and WoW accounts. Some people don't think things through, but I'm what they call el genio.

I can explain it to you from a perspective of somebody who knows RPG's, but hasn't played WoW.
Leeroy is a part of this guild, who's about to go on some super serious mission and kill these things so they can get some badass equipment. In the video, you see people standing around and Leeroy's character just sitting idly by the side for a long time, while the WoW clan talks some uberly nerdy stuff about Devout Shoulders and whatnot.
Anyhow, the mission is a delicate thing, and they have to carefully plan out what to do so they all don't end up killing majorly owned by these enemies. After a minute or two of chat you see Leeroy stand up and yell "LEEEEEEEEEEEEROOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYYY JENKINS!!!!!!" over the mic and just dash headfirst into the room with all the enemies, not giving a shit about anybody in his clan.
The clan runs in to "save" him, and all die in the matter of a minute or so. They're all screaming "Leeroy you're so fucking stupid!" "GOD Leeroy!" and saying some other ill shit to him.

you forgot to mention that only Leeroy needed the awesome items from those enemies, and that he messed it up for them
