power leveling yay or nay?

I have recently been tempted to pay someone to level a char for me, as it would be my 6th 70 the grind outside of northrend is not appealing at all.

After doing a good amount of research (based on $ instead of time) i have found that: (american prices through paypal)
(below 60) you would be paying 1$ / lvl on average.
(60-70) approx. 23.99$
(70+) 12$/lvl

when you compare this to the earnings of min. wage (8.75 /hr CAN) / (approx 7.1 /hr US) you notice that the time you would be playing is FAR less than the time you would spend at work eg 1hr of work could get you 7 lvls compared to 1hr of play which could get you 7 bars :P

this is just my two cents as wow is increasingly growing pwr lvling will never go away so whats your opinon yay or nay?

why do we really play mmorpgs?

after playing an mmorpg and reading / being told mmorpgs are only for those who are socially unfit, or in their parents basement im left to wonder why do many of us play mmorpgs, i personally play because i beat other games to fast or lose interest in them in a matter of days , also i love char customization , stats and basically improving your toon.

so how bout you fellow bloggers what compells you to play mmorpgs? the need to socialize or the need to pwn?
