Today I started thinking... who plays Warcraft? Do doctor's play wow? Do teachers? What's the age range? I've seen kids in like junior high to people who are old enough to be my mother. I've heard people say that it is mostly men... and yet there are so many (supposedly) female players.

I'm a 25 year old mom who works as a security coordinator for a biotech firm.

Older than dirt female IT project manager.

According to an article in newsweek a couple weeks ago....college professers play wow among docters, nurses, teachers etc.

I think everybody from all aspects of life plays this.]

I know people who play that are in their 60s that play this.

I also know people who play that haven't had their voice drop or hair grow in funny places yet either.

Myself? College kid.

I'm 19 and work in retail at my local Wal-Mart. :P

But I read an interesting article on Newsweek's website a few months back, that was titled something like "WOW is the new golf". It was talking about how Managers, CEOs, and other important people now get together in Warcraft, get on Vent, and make deals and contracts while questing. What used to be a "male business bonding time" on the golf courses has moved to Azeroth. It was quite interesting and strange.
