Not true for this Studies as shown that Online gaming promotes Leadership, social skills and Teamwork.
Most players online who create a alter ego for themselves will soon learn that they need to drop that and team up in co-operation quest,
How is that so? Well that is because when comes to doing dungeons a.k.a co-operation questing.
And also when comes to dungeons a team of 5 players have to do their role in order to successfully complete a dungeon.
- Tank - Draw attention away from the team and absorbing damage keeping team away from danger
- DPS or Damage Dealing - Their job to deal as much damage as possible within a short time
- Healer - Keeping the team alive during during the quest.
- Crowd Control(a hidden role) - Can be any of the 3 above or all the above 3, this role is the control the enemies from overrunning the team or prevent them from using abilities or cause a event that could wipe out the team.
Players are require to do some research to optimize the players style and Players require to do some decision.
From personal unlike Facebook or internet forums, cyber-bulling, bad behavior or trolling is discourage because it affects the player chances or getting into any of the team/raids thus effect the enjoyment experiences for individual person. Players would just better results with good attitude.
Below it's a rough ideal how player should behave while on World of Warcraft also on other online games

I got admit I myself I was also into WOW and I spend a lot of time in that game because of the monthly subscription, I feel that I'm obliged to play to make my money worth that feels like I got addicted.
How overcoming the addiction?
To be honest I don't ready get addicted to any games but I'm addicted to new games and new technology, But I have Family and friends also addicted some ways may seem unorthodox
but it works for them while still able to play online games.
- 1st of all you got to admit you are addicted.
- For those who dun have a GF, get one! Yes having a GF divert you attention to her and getting into her pants instead.
- Always put your family and Friends 1st when comes hanging out. (seriously with my cousin and friends is way more fun then gaming)
- Look at the mirror and compare yourself with Tom Cruise, Vin diesel, Bill gates or even that handsome dude across you house, office or in school that have a hot girl friend that you are so jealous/envy of and ask yourself what they have, what you don't have and start working on that.
- Look up on the internet and see the other addicts on you tube trust me after you see it all you don't be one of them.
- Get a new hobbies
