What do you do when there is no WoW?



I am starting to get bored with WoW. I feel that it's like a relationship that is beginning to go stale. Last night our 25 man raid for either Gruul or Mag did not happened again due to the lack of people/interest. When someone offered to go do Kara instead, I declined. There is only so many times you can do Kara before it becomes a bore. This is especially since I'm fully in my T4 set with Moramor, and there are only two things that I actually could use as and upgrade from that dungeon, the bracers from Maden and the dagger from Prince.

So, here comes the challenge. What do you do with your time if you stop playing WoW. I was mulling over to pre-ordering Warhammer Online and trying the open Beta. Besides that, there are not many other things that can be as wholesome and entertaining as WoW for the low price. At least none that come to my mind right now. What to do?

What do you do with all the free time in your life if you eliminate WoW completely. WoW took up a lot of that free time in the past. If I would eliminate WoW form my life, I would either have to find anouther hobby that would require as much time and commitment, or I would have to come up with multple smaller hobbies or activities.

One of the challenges I had with multiple hobbies/activities, is that I take on too many and get burned out. With wow, you can scale back or intensify your time or effort commitment. With smaller hobbies/activities you would have to drop one or two. The drama that sometimes entales leaving something is never pleasant. I guess this is a new era, and an interesting turning point.
