You obviously found playing MMORPGs fun or interesting, even if you grew tired of it. On top of that, you were voluntarily opening yourself up to these requests. Random mobile-game Facebook spam is different, because it's unwelcome and they're asking you to do something you never wanted to do. If these people had instead been constantly coming by your house uninvited asking you to contort yourself into painful positions for their amusement, you'd probably have been less welcoming towards it.
