Hey all -

Been reading and chatting with many of you over the years, and thought 
I'd let you know that I cancelled my sub yesterday after non-stop 
subscription since 10/09.

I don't know exactly when it happened, but I started to get "meh" with 
the game out of nowhere.  I think it was soon after finishing the final 
raid on my main.  All of a sudden I think I was feeling like not wanting 
to do it again.  I tried over the next few days to run my healer 
through, and just got frustrated and bored, esp with the quality of 
players in LFR, which is what my schedule permitted.    Timeless Island 
really did it for me as well.  The rep grind finally got to me on that 
one, as well as personally I felt like with the instant gearing, nothing 
was hard, well earned, or felt special anymore.   The legendary quest 
line really irritated me in that they were nerfing it continuously as 
the ex-pac released patches.  For example, why am I busting my ass to 
get 6K valor, and then you drop it to 3K the day the patch with the next 
chapter comes out?

I found myself doing something I could never before understand how 
anyone could do, which was stand around in SW waiting 1 hr for a 
queue...Pet battles?...meh...rep grind some more?  nah....Run a 
scenario?  eh - don't feel like it...Go catch up on the "walking dead" 
episode? Oh yea - forgot about that, and I left queue and logged.  I 
actually was having more fun playing "Skylanders" with my kids.  lmao

I gave it 4 weeks to see if I felt differently.  I sometimes got to the 
top of the stairs looking down to my office where the PC is and said - 
"Nah"... I even got as far as sitting at my PC finishing up something 
else and the WoW icon was staring at me...I stared back.  I just didn't 
feel like it.  The drive up and went cold turkey on me, seemingly out of 
nowhere.  So after 3 weeks, 4 days of not logging , I logged yesterday 
to grab the expired AH items out of the mailbox, ironically go the 
anniversary achieve, then logged.  Went to Battle.net and answered their 
questions, and cancelled...

Ironically, my birthday was 2 weeks ago and my mother gave me.......a 60 
day card.   lmao.   Didn't have the heart to tell her I was thinking of 
quitting.

I also figured I'd hold onto it in case I decided to return....maybe 
after I hear some good things a few months after the release on the next 
ex-pac next year....

Anyway, as for now,  I thank you all for any help I may have gotten over 
the years, and it was an honor if I helped anyone in return.  I will 
still drop in from time to time to see if anything is going on....

But right now, it's time to enjoy the holidays with the family...  :)

Hope you have fun and thanks again!
