1. Yes
2. Almost a year I started in February
3. WoW (I bought WoD got my toon to lvl100 and realized that the game wasn't for me and that I just wasted money, I also came back in a few months after I quit to try to convince my friends I made on WoW to play FF14 and saw that they added game time tokens which you can sell in the auction house, just by seeing that I can tell that game is now being desperate for more people to play. I hope FF14 never ends up like that)
