    That guy is a terrible image of a gamer. And Tyra has no idea what WoW is, first, you pay for it so he kind of has to play it so he doesn’t waste money, two you play with other people in game.
    “What does this game mean to you?”
    “Nothing now”
    After installation it does mean NOTHING!
    I hate it how people claim that video games ruin relationships. You can get addicted, yes, but you can uninstall the game turn off the computer, LEAVE the person for gods sake. The people aren’t taking the initiative to change, either one of them. It casts a shadow saying that all video games are bad. It annoys me SO MUCH. And if you looked at the screen when the baby “cried” he was in a town standing there, I think the sound was edited in. Games aren’t that bad people, it’s the person playing them and, in this case, the significant other who needs to shape up!
    Gah sorry about the rant, but it annoys me

    I agree with u Phaladone, its all about how you manage your life and not blame it on something else when you can’t manage it.

    What a total load of CRAP! Tyra doesn’t know a damn thing about WoW and never will….I mean, look at her! Super model turned talk show host and a terrible one at that!

    That guy on the show was an awful example of what a gamer is. And did they even ask him or bring his computer onto the show to erase WoW from the hard drive? NO! So shredding those discs didn’t mean diddly!

    Tyra is such an air head. Are we sure she wasn’t a blonde in a past life?

    That guy had a serious addiction, but there’s so much wrong with this story.

    For instance:
    Different people have different ideas of a social life. There’s 8 million people playing the game, there’s always someone to talk to online, it’s not just a “video game”. Some people like going out places, some are comfortable to sit at home and chat online.

    There’s definately exceptions though, being on the computer too much can be physically unhealthy. My point is, they’re pointing out flaws of people based on their own standards.

    HAHA That was hilarious I could just imagine what the guy was thinking, “n00bs, i dont need the cd to play” LOL LOL This is a classic. Though i think Tyra Banks should stick to her own “real world” (If that’s what you call her world) and keep out of places she doesnt belong. My solution would be to get another computer and account and get his fiance to play! When the daughter gets old enough, you already have 3/5 of a party!

    You can play WoW without having a CD inserted. A better move would be cancelling his account together.

    And while he is a terrible image of a video gamer, he’s certainly not a rare one. Hundreds of thousands of WoW players (out of the 8 million subscribers) paralel him in the amount of time they waste per week on WoW.

    Haha, nice “When the daughter gets old enough, you already have 3/5 of a party!” yeah he just found the wrong person to spend the rest of his life with, he should’ve dated someone on WoW instead of in real life, then they could socialize together online.

    Tyra I think that you gave tye on the bad girl show too much time to talk. She is not very smart in fact she is ignorant obviously she does not know how to act when confronted that is clear to me that she should hush and listen and maybe learn about being content within. Acting out on a show and trying to be a educated women is contrary to how she acts. If you praise young women, as you did then you let them belief that they don’t need to shut up and learn from their mistakes as Miss Tye does. The show is called bad GIRLs that explains it right there. You have to be able to address your behavior and Tyes behavior was acting as if she was a adolscent, but instead she says, that is her way. I don’t think that is smart at all. And if tye got into a debate with a women for her sake she should hush and listen and again she might learn how to act right. Just a thought. KK

    well im in no way addicted (i only play on weekends and even so its just a 2-3 hours) but it seems i bit undermining for tyra to keep calling it “some video game” and stuff like that. we could call her make up “some powdery shit” or her face “this random thing” but we try and respect these things. though the 30 year old guy playing it should be mocked, the game that he is playing should not as there are some 12 years olds (like me) that still like them. the truth is that she has no idea what WoW is. in her soap-opera-need-nothing-but-love little world video games are probably never mentioned. this was a real insult and a pathetic attempt to send some public message to the world that video games are bad and shit like that. thank god she didnt do a very good job at it, any gamer who saw that would have laughed their asses off. i know i did.
