WTFPwned by my 5yr oldFollow

This is short clip of my 5yr old son playing World of Warcraft in Warsong Gultch with his lvl 23 dwarf hunter. As an avid WoW player, I admit that he is THE %@!* for being 5yrs old! It's nothing fancy, but shows how talented my 5yr old is. The best part is that he is probably more mature than some of the other players! He can't read so he completely ignores the qq'ers and plays to HAVE FUN!

You can also view some of my other vids from my girlgam3r website as well.

Just thought I'd share to the community, my son loves playing with everyone! Please pass it on!

Congrats, but..this also shows how little it takes to PvP..which is kinda sad ;>.

haha, that's sweet. i had a similar situation when one of my campers (last summer i was the instructor at a day camp/sailing camp on the harbor) who was 6 informed me that he also played WoW. i asked what level he was, incredulously, and he told me he was a 26 gnome mage.

then i asked how he was able to complete quests and whatnot since he can't read, and he answered that he "figures it out eventually."

i got a kick out of it.

Where the fuck are these 5 and 6 year old kids from that can't read?

Where I'm from, Inu, you don't start elementary school until age 5-7.

I just died inside.

When you grow up kid, come back and tell me which got you farther in life; reading or a video game.

My 6 year old son has a level 44 hunter. He would make me stop playing every few minutes to read the quests and tell him what he needed to do. I ran him trough all the instances up to RFD. He even ground out the money for his own mount. There are somethings he doesn't understand but all in all he has fun.


5 and 6 year olds reading? Most of them are still in kindergarten. I don't know too many kids that can read at that age but can you think of a better motivator to learn then playing a game. I mean I learned how to type just to chat.

reading > Then Videogames... If you dont think so you have never read a good book. nough said

QFT. In fact, if more kids read a few good books once in a while, we wouldn't have any more of these, "ZOMG, U Jtsu ownde em!! I Haet yuo!!" or any more spelling errors and the such in forums like ours.

so all in all, Reading >(x10) Video Games

You don't need to read aslong as you know what each symbol means. I assume that's how you taught them to play?

Awww, that video was adorable! I have a five year old and a three year old both boys and that vid reminds me of when I let my own five year old play. He hasn't played in a BG yet but he's alright grinding out mobs and such. Not quite as talented as your guy yet but he'll get there. ;) He reads a bit but some of the words are a little "big" for him still. I help him out a little. He's not allowed to have the chat pane up at all so he's safe there.

He likes to play as a tauren more than anything else so we have a 30 tauren shaman that he plays now. (My fiance lets him play it now, since he plays his human warlock more. ^^) He levelled it from 15 to 30 so he's pretty decent at it. It's interesting to see other parents that have children the same age as mine letting them play. It's always fun to see families enjoying things like this together.

That was cute. He did a great job, were you his healer though? Looked like he had a shield most of the time, but still he was pretty damn good.

My 6 year old, if he would play his hunter would be a higher lvl. Right now he's lvl 34, and has a druid that is lvl 20. Most of his lvl'ing comes from grinding, and I help him out with quests when he asks.

He also likes to help out people with deadmine runs. I think he got that from me when I ran him through the DM so he could get all the defias gear when he needed it.

As far as reading, he can make out some of what is said. WoW has also helped him with his typing and spelling. I don't know to many 6 y/o's that can spell chicken, train, whistle and most of the other emotes.

He also likes to PVP a lot. He's been spending more time in BG and arenas goofing around then anything.



EDIT: I noticed in the vid he use's the arrow keys to. I tried to get my son to use the wasd keys, but he's so used to arrows that he won't change. BTW I got a zboard keyboard with the LE BC keyset....asked my son if he wanted one, and he said no. I take it home and now he wants it for the keyset with the big arrows onthe side.

BTW Great Vid.

I lol'ed, love the jammies.....Play's just like my son. Gotta get him to send that pet in!!!
