Since the release of The Burning Crusade in China last month, the Chinese have been launching an all-out assault. Accounts and play time has risen, and on Oct. 4th the all time Chinese record was set with 800,000 players online simultaneously! China already accounts for more than half of the worldwide WoW population, with no end to the growth in sight. That's not all that has been growing... numerous deaths have been linked to gaming binges that last from 72 hours to 15 days straight! And I thought I was bad. The addiction is getting so out of hand that boot camps have been set up for online addicts in which families pay up to $1200 dollars to 'cure' sufferers of their addiction. Damn, I don't know which servers these people are on, but I sure don't want to tangle with them anytime soon. Remember, gang - it's only a game - take a break and get outside once in a while... but level up quickly and get some rare gear because... The Chinese Are Coming!
