Go away. You’re dead!
For AoC, the performance should explain the need to shut up X-Fire while playing ;)
only about 10,0000 players in Everques tthat should tell you the numbers are screwed right there . WOW is primarily asian p[layers . Its fort hose that love anime type things and a lot of gold farmers that are employed playing WOW . Not really a hard core Raiding game like EQ.
