Anyone who dares even hint that a MMO like WoW could be addictive on hardcore raiding guild's website is like going into the lion's den and expecting not to get mauled. It would be akin to Nancy Reagan visiting a crack house and shouting "Just say NO to drugs!" and expecting the addicts to wake up from their narcotic euphoria and reform their behavior.

It's pointless trying to convince an addict in denial that he is addicted or that addicition to a "game" is even possible. That is true especially on these forums where thoughtful ideas and intelligent posts even on a good day are routinely flamed and smeared with the typical excrement that comes from the mouths of the average forum poster these days. Dare to disagree or hold a slightly unpopular opinion and the know-it-all groupthink squad (the same handful of people) starts to pile on with their unfunny one liners. Debate about a serious issue such as addiction on forums like these is entirely pointless. We have more important things to debate here like hunter DPS, purple epics and if warriors are getting shafted in the BCE.
