are you genuinely concerned for your friend or is this a cockblock?

It's all part of the plan....
Stage 1) Cultivate distrust of wow in this 'friend'
Stage 2) Be the helpful friend with no ulterior motives
Stage 3) The break up
Stage 4) FHUTA

This is not a plan to get anyone in trouble.
My friend said that if she does find out he plays a lot it wouldn't matter. If anything it'd be cute that he didn't tell her because he didn't want her to think he's a loser.
She is just curious. There would be nothing wrong if he plays more than he says he does.

This thread gets much more interesting if it's confirmed this is an attempted cockblock :lol

No dude, all of that is girlspeak for "I need to find out if he's a loser so I know whether to start lining up a new boyfriend sooner rather than later." By "it wouldn't matter" she means "it completely matters."

Grow a pair and ask the girl out or accept you are stuck on the friend ladder forever. Pretty lame that you would stalk another guy because she asked you to. Only reason I could see someone agreeing to stalk another guy, is because they are interested in said female that asked them to do the stalking. Stalking and spying on someone is a great way to start a relationship. If she doesnt believe him when he answered the question, it is time for her to find someone else. If she doesnt believe him because you are filling her heads with self doubts due to his gaming rig and playing WoW, that is even more lame. It sounds like you are doing your best to sabotage her relationship for whatever reasons. Step up and take a chance or back off and let her make up her own mind without you playing cockblock to every guy she meets. Sorry to sound harsh, but it sounds like you have feelings for the girl, but havent come to grips with it.

Wha?
You could install a trojan on his computer and monitor his usage and such. After doing that you can get his credit card info from the previous method and have all usage blocked so you can observe how he acts when he is unable to play WoW.
You could also monitor what girls he's talking to as well. I use this method to keep tabs on all my ex girlfriends.

This thread is nicely filled with conspiracy theorists and the illiterate. At least it's fun to read, in a sad way :lol.

I have. Basically, all they talk about is WoW.
Find someone to ask the dude about something like CoD4 or whatever. If he starts talking about WoW you know he's addicted.

But why would she go through that, if she can find out now? You propose that she wastes a few weeks instead trying to find out if this guy is an addict the "natural" way?
You can absolutely have a GREAT window into someone's WoW playing habits based on their armory.
A) You can see their skill levels. If they have 300 in like... Fishing, and Cooking, and Alchemy and whatever else, that's a pretty strong indicator.
B) You can see their FACTION reputation levels. Are they Exalted with no one? They're probably a casual player. Are they exalted with like, Shattered Sun Offensive and Cenarian Expedition? Maybe semi-hardcore. Exalted with Sporeggar and Kurunai? Alarm bells should be going off.
C) You can see WHERE their gear came from. If it's Arena point gear, or quest rewards, they're pretty casual. If it's from Heroic 5-mans & Kara, they're semi-hardcore. If it's from any 25 man raids, especially anything from SSC or higher, they're hardcore.
You still won't be able to tell whether they have 200 days /played or 10 days /played, but it'll still be a great window into how big a part of their life WoW is.

I am reaching some, but I bet I am not that far off. Most guys are lazy and I dont know many guys who would give up their free time to spy on another guy, unless they had some invested interest in the girl. If she doesnt care about his playtime, why bring it up in the first place and if he doesnt care much about the girl, why bother posting the question here.DeathNote said:
If she doesn't care than she's psycho and doesn't know how to communicate. "I'm gonna spend days discussing something with someone, and then spy on the guy I'm dating when I could tell/ask him something simple to his face"

I guess the assumption is that WoW addicts make poor boyfriends. Given the amount of time they spend in-game and the number of relationships, both casual and serious, that I saw fall apart due to the game in my EQ and WoW playtime(both in heavy raiding, high-end guilds), I can only say that I feel the assumption is warranted.
In my experience, there is not enough time in the day to work(either in school or in the office), farm collectables/cash/whatever, raid, and devote a decent amount of time to a significant other. One of them has to give. Furthermore, "I need to attend raid x tonight because loot x might drop and I have the highest DKP in the guild" is a poor excuse against... well, anything.

Wow @ the folks responding in this thread. He just asked a simple question.
Yeah, Falkor, if you can get his char's name, you can look him up on the Armory, and based on his gear, we can give you a general idea of how much he plays.

That's bullshit. I don't need someone to judge why I'm choosing to do a particular activity in the evening.
P.S. Don't play WoW (though I did).

Dating a serious mmo addict is not fun at all.
There are two kinds, the ones that talk about their MMO constantly and will discuss how much they play openly (and will bore most people to death with stories of their characters), and the ones who hide their excessive playing and get really irritated and depressed when they have to do something that isn't playing the mmo.
The second kind tends to downplay their involvement in the game. Well worth it to find out if this guy is like this.
