Today, I had to explain to my son that his dad was too busy in a raid on World of Warcraft to be at his award ceremony. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, my boyfriend forgot to pick our son up from daycare. His excuse? Fighting in a battle in World of Warcraft was far more important and he had to stay absolutely focused. Our son had to wait for two hours. FML
Today, I realized that I'll have to explain to my child that mommy and daddy met on World of Warcraft. FML
Today, I asked my dad to pick me up from school, he said he couldn't. Why? he was busy playing world of warcraft for the night. I got to walk the 3 hours home while my 49 year old dad played computer games. FML
Today, I went into labor and got my husband drive me to the hospital. Instead of staying by my side, he rushed back home for a World of Warcraft raid. His excuse? His friends were counting on him and they'd be pissed if he let them down. FML
Gamers gonna game
Today, I had to delay the Father's Day dinner that I had to cook, so it wouldn't conflict with my wife and kids' gaming schedules. FML
Today, I went into labor with my first child, and as much as I pleaded, I had to wait for my husband to finish his raid in World of Warcraft before he'd take me to the hospital. FML
Today, my fiancé nervously sat me down for a "serious chat". The chat wound up with him asking if we could postpone our wedding, because his World of Warcraft guild had a raid scheduled for the same day. FML
Today, I was feeling proud of myself because I finally quit World Of Warcraft. I later found out about the gift my dad's family gave me. It was a 12-month subscription to World Of Warcraft. FML
Today, I walked in on my son teabagging his sister over a video game. FML
Tidy
Today, my boyfriend taught my son to do his chores. Not real chores, but "Runescape chores" on my boyfriend's account. My son won't pick up his toys or put his shoes away, but he'll jump on the computer to grow plants or cut trees or some other stupid shit. FML

YDI for marrying a jackass like that and not forcing him to get treatment for his addiction if he has one, or making him just grow the f up and stop being selfish, or just leaving him. Men are only as evil and selfish and childish as women keep letting them be.

I don't understand how people get addicted to it. I played it and thought it was the shittiest game ever made. I burned the disc later that day (it was a free gift). YDI for marrying a moron who get addicted to a half-ass video game. now, if it were modern warfare 2, I would understand why, but not agree

if you think wow sucks you probably were on a guest account and got to level 2. people do have issues getting stuck in raids in which they can't leave because they would be hated for life by their guild or group. I know it's a video game but alot of ppl treat it too much like one and don't take it seriously. world of Warcraft has over 12-13 million people who play worldwide. your gonna come across a few who think WoW > life

Your son's father takes shit way too far, obviously. People may generalize about world of Warcraft as much as they want, but it is a fun game, if it weren't so time consuming I'd probably still be playing. the game does not get fun until you reach the expansions.

FU 5 yr old alliance players. 4 The Horde. And nowdays you can do the raids at other times or even get it extended. If the guild won't allow it they fail to realize Life>WoW
Mirequetz 6
I play WoW, so does my boyfriend (we live together) and we have never missed anything in real life for a raid. We are in a raiding guild and would gladly leave if they pressured us to stay for a raid rather than do something outside of the game. I'm going to say YDI for not telling your significant other to grow balls and tell your son himself. As well as you for not just pulling the plug. LOK' TAR FOR THE HORDE.

OP this happened to my youngest brother (14) except he missed his OWN awars ceremony. I logged onto his computer went the website and there is a parental control section where you can limit gameplay time and i think with a seperate password. I gave him two hours a day 1 in the morning and 1 in the evening. good luck and peace out x

obviously all these people saying ydi don't find the same pleasure in wow that most of us do... also, with people farming togc/icc its hard to take more than an hour on naxx -_- fail pug if it takes that long imo. also since wotlk came out raids have gotten rediculously easy, it shouldn't take so long that he misses his child's ceremony unless he started the raid soon before the ceremony started, in which case i can completely understand. fyl either way.

you should divorce him or talk some sense in to him. If a father is too busy playing WoW that he can't go to his own son's award ceremony is pretty sad. FYL
Flutist 3
Oh wow, Op, how could you demand your husband/boyfriend/baby daddy get off his ass to come see his son's award. I mean those raids are HARD. I mean, a whole bunch of people you don't know playing in their boxers and jacking off to the Elf Hunter in the skimpy skirt. Nope, you couldn't possibly have any reason to be pissed! Kick his ass. I hate when people think kids just get over it. They don't. He is going to remember his dad not being there and it is going to hurt worse than a guild getting pissed. Cause its not like they can't replace the guy with the next generic lever 50. And your poor kid, hell, its not like he's offering your man fake, internet gold. Priorities. Does he offer to pay child support in gold and the parts of animals he has harvested?
