How Do I Get Into Computer Gaming Industry?

My dream job is to play MMORPG games like WoW all day long. How do I get into such industry? I ain’t interested in computer programming but I have knowledge in HTML/JavaScript/CSS/SEO and the likes.
I’m into web development, but I don’t fancy computer programming i.e. C++, Java, .Net.

If you are into JavaScript and web development, I would advise you starting with J2ME (Java for Mobile Devices) and developing small games for mobile devices, www.nokia.com/forum and get the SDK and start learning and gradually moving to other platforms such as PC, XBOX and PlayStation. C++ is widely recognised as the core language for gaming.

    win a LOT of tournies, go to the home office of your favorite compnay, show them a resume of your accomplishments, and ask if they have a testing spot open for a game in development.
    BTW- game testers dont get paid very much, and its harder to test than u think. you have to write pages of notes, and summarize them into reports, and you have to be very observant.
