World Of Warcraft Usage Declined In September
by Darren
October 10, 2007 – 6:48 amFrom August to September, World of Warcraft saw an 18% decline in hours played. The reasons for the decline are probably obvious.
Average hours spent by Xfire users daily playing World of Warcraft have dropped by nearly 18 per cent from August numbers, according to data from the community and data application for the month of September.
It sets a pattern which is mirrored across many of the other top ten MMOs, with second-placed Guild Wars showing a 13 per cent drop and third-placed Silkroad Online falling over 27 per cent.
One of the likely main reasons for the drop is the end of the summer holidays for schools and colleges across Europe and the US.
Of course that’s the reason. So no need to be alarmed just yet if you’re Blizzard.

Well it’s quite normal that the kids go back to school and have less time over to play wow. I think it’s good that it’s this way and not the oher way around…
