Hmm, all these wonderful teamwork things in WoW, can't we do them in real life and gain more realistic experience from it? Aside from that, WoW is a competition to see who can spend more time playing, and uses a standard variable-ratio schedule of reinforcement (meaning you randomly get cool stuff if you keep playing, so you keep playing to see what you get) to keep you hooked. A variable-interval reinforcement schedule is a really simple psychological tactic, and it saddens me how well it works... by the way it's the exact same tactic used to keep you hooked in casinos.
heres a random site I googled which explains it better...

Whatever you can learn in WoW, you can learn much better in real life.
EQ is where its been, at, and will stay. You like cartoons play WOW 
, you like realistic looks play EQ baby! YEAH!
