I honestly find these situations the most interesting for me personally.

Someone one time had this grand explanation on the forums of different personality types and how they play EQ.

One of the types didn't level much, didn't really accomplish so much in the game instead preferred to socialize and chat with other players.

I am a mixture of that type with someone that does level up etc. I find more satisfaction out of meeting the players behind the toons. It's far more rewarding for me than leveling the toon or killing dragons.

You mean Bartle taxonomy of player types? That was me actually.

They are compatible with just about everyone; even Killers will often get along with the more respectable Socializers (or simply know better than to pick a fight that the Socializer's friends will get involved in), and the more dramatic Socializers thrive symbiotically on the chaos created by some Killers. Eventually, they will most likely be a well-known name on their particular server, either for the services they provide, or for the drama they are involved in.

Yeah I think it's safe to call you a Socializer [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
