new games, for me? I promise I wont quit them this time!
dude you you read a lot into a few words there.
Aggressive language aside, frankly I don't give a crap who plays what, it's your money. Stop clogging wow centric sites with your personal drama with the game. Chances are nobody gives a shit you are leaving. The only people who care are the people with the game you bought that you are advertising for.
What you should do is stop assuming that if someone posts something against rift they must be FOR WOW. In fact I have no issue about the game. I dislike the player base that is forming, its like crack feinds that have one buddy that is sober. Come on man one hit .. you will like it. Folks don't realise thats how you end up nude behind taco bell with 15 naked mexicans.
I don't work for blizzard its not my job to tell them anything. MY JOB is to get the most I can out of the 15 bucks I'm blowing a month to play that game. OH and trust me I am.

It's no mystery why people keep talking about Rift. It simply comes down to these facts:
1) Rift is new and fresh
2) Some people aren't currently happy with WoW, therefore are attracted to Rift
3) The visuals in Rift are naturally better than WoW (cos WoW is intentionally "cartooney")
4) Rift, even if you hate to admit it, is actually quite a well polished MMO.
These are the simple reasons why so many people are talking about Rift.
I am sure these sites are better suited to pro rift propaganda. Try them.

Hey newbie (Oct 2010), some of us have been following MMO champion for a long time. I've been playing WoW for 6+ years. Its getting a bit stale. I didn't register at MMOchamp before 2009 since i didn't need/want to post before that even.
I agree in principle, that rift commentary should be limited to the handful of threads already started; if nothing else it consolidates the conversation into one easy place to follow. That said, Rift is nearing launch and this sub-forum is for OTHER video games. You can read any of the other forums for your WoW stuff.
I hope that, at some point in time, MMO-Champ opens some sub-forums for other MMOs -- namely rift in this case. I think the game is worthy of at least a dedicated area to discuss... it really is that good.
You complain about Rift threads here, yet you make one about Rift yourself? You're doing the same thing you accuse people of, advertising Rift.
Now stfu, lock this thread, and i'll see everyone in 3 weeks time in Rift.
I already said this on another thread about Rift, but these people remind me of music hipsters. The ones who hunt for obscure bands that no one has ever heard of, and try and be the first to jump on what they believe will be the bandwagon.Its not that you guys are leaving, i can understand that and its fine. Its just that your group wont shut the hell up... you want to move onto a new game? That's fine, move on, more power to you. The point OP is making with such a small statement is that we (in general) do not care.
The hope, I assume, is that they will appear cool once it goes mainstream because they'll be able to say "I knew this was cool before everyone else".
All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players.
And there is an off-topic video game section on here. Which need I remind you that you are posting in. World of Warcraft information/talk doesn't belong here this is for other games - move along.
I agree people make too many new threads. However I don't think their posts are wrong I just wish they would consolidate them to one thread.
I question why anyone bothers to do the markeing for these people, not that rift threads exist themselves.
can you show me on any rift centric sties where people are busting in with pro wow drama?
If I was on rift like i am wow, I would ask the same question. Are you being paid to advertise wow on a rift centric site?
You can flame that and me all you want but the thing is, why are you bothering, and why are you so hateful over it?

Trion is giving away in-game items for every 10 posts about rift you make in any WoW related forum.
You heard it here first.
Hi
In this thread; fanboys defend "their" game.
I still don't know why people argue over such pathetic things, do you really care of Bob over there thinks WoW is better than Rift? Did you help develop Rift? Do you have some sort of financial stake in its future?
I think a lot of it comes down to there are many people who have a lot of time invested in WoW and are not satisfied with its current state. These people are also probably excited and hopeful for a change, so it’s not so unreasonable for them to post a thread about the topic on a site dedicated to a similar video game.
I am bored to tears with WoW at the moment. I would love to be optimistic about a viable replacement for WoW. Unfortunately, I don’t think Rift will have any staying power. So I sit here and wait…
I have no intentions of playing Rift. People just need to understand that this is the off topic video game section and other games do get talked about. Its not a sin.
