Kasal, I play the way you play. Instances do take too long for me. I have a family, and other time committments, and can't devote several uninterupted hours to playing. I have done a few instances recently, but I have dealt with a few people who I really wanted to cuss out, which makes it less fun. If my guild grows enough that we can do instances with just people we know, I could see doing it. But not with strangers. I only do group quests if someone is posting in general chat for a quest I currently need. I never look for help. I have actually had good luck with finding nice players this way. Frequently we only form a party for a few minutes, complete the quest, then go our separate ways. The great thing about WoW is that you have so many options on how to enjoy the game. There are so many different ways to go about it that it has appeal to a wide variety of players. I've never tried BGs or Arenas, simply because the PvP holds no appeal to me. I rolled a toon on a PvP server, and he has been parked at lvl 36 for about a year. I couldn't stand world PvP.
