WARNING:

if you

1) skipped a day of work to attend NTOV raid

2) do not have a job and attended NTOV raid

it's time to SEEK HELP

Otherwise, you'll wake up morbidly obese at age 40 living off your parents and/or the State.

oh wait ;)

Still room to squeeze you in if anyone wants to come, should be here about 12 more hours or so

The average value of an hour of your life is about $50. This is factoring in higher pay later on in your life (also known as deferred wages), which is achievable only if you are a diligent worker who grows skills earlier on in life (20s->30s).

How many people are in that screenshot? 100? 200?

Let's say 150. And let's say the NTOV crawl goes on for 5 hours.

150 people x 5 hours = 750 man hours spent in NTOV crawl during US working hours

750 man hours at a rate of $50 per hour = $37,500

No joke guys. The NTOV crawl has cost the raid force almost $40,000 collectively. Perhaps more if you factor in the impact of being a degenerate raider during normal business hours*

If the value estimate of $50/h lifetime average seems high, it means that you have probably wasted so much time that you're average $/h is below the median of an American.

Next time you spend your hour staring at a screen, ask yourself: "was that really worth $50?"

The cost of that hour is even higher if it is during normal business hours.

Praying for yawl

(this post cost me about $5 to make.)

*Stipulations, of course, must be made for Euros and other foreign time zones. However this is a small minority of the server.

getting a report that the current pop of this raid is 240, which makes my former estimate dramatically low.

Really concerned about this population of adult individuals.

Why do people do this shit and let guild forums lapse? It costs like $50/year to keep a forum going for elf-pal camaraderie.

You nerds literally only have to RMT one AoN to pay for the forum for like 25 years.

We didn't use it much tbh. The guild survives in Discord and is incubating to chest burst AM some day.

Best thread on the site was "The Daily Rustle"

I was just checking the forum to try and dig up the Jarn app or meltdown or whatever related to your story above. Was going to post here to memorialize

was fun started falling asleep so I dipped out. Left a few corpses in vyemm pit, good luck with the rest of them merbs!

read: spending a day engaged in this activity is unbearable. I abused pharmaceutical opiates in order to cope with the bleak reality. after snorting the fourth pill, I cuold no longer keep my eyes open.

If the value estimate of $50/h lifetime average seems high, it means that you have probably wasted so much time that you're average $/h is below the median of an American.

$50 per hour x 40 hours per week x 52 weeks per year = $104,000

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the median wage for workers in the United States in the fourth quarter of 2017 was $857 per week or $44,564 per year for a 40-hour workweek.

You're a little off in your assumption that $50 per hour is the median of an American.

You'd need a doctorate and 20 years tenure in my field to be making $100k/year.

Yeah I'm including the higher pay you get in forties and fifties and maybe sixties to draw that high average.this is called deferred wages.

Irulan

Apparently if you're classically trained n can afford your own lawyers u can bill at $500/hr. Something to ponder.

Would it be rmt if guilds charged tickets for event slots?

I mean they wouldn't be trading for pixels. They'd be paying a 3rd party fee for tracking their attendance really.

guess that's something. I'd argue the 200+ fight AM led is more impressive. SO much harder to manage that many people, most of them green and not paying much attention.

I don't think "led" is the right term I would use for that ToV.....death spree.

It was early on in the daily rustle. He hates Catt and myself because we left the BDA cult half a decade ago and made some whiny post about not wanting to play with us before he quit, to which Slydexx replies with something like "Now that's how you fucking rustle someone! 5 years later and he's still pissed."

Felt nice.

That is a flat out lie, You're overestimating your importance.. If Cuc has relevant thread, he has my permission to post it. I left Rustle because i killed everything in the game and was bored as fuck, just went to some other endeavors.

Must feel nice to think that tho, agreed.
