Don't bump the thread, and don't abuse the IP exemption once you've got it (ie logging in your "flatmate"'s account to buff you)

Yeah, I've read some stories a few years ago about players getting banned for that kind of stuff.

I'm just wondering how long it will take since I (we) have no intention to start seriously playing until we get the exemption, so I was wondering how long I'd have to wait.

Hopefully it will take months, so that we would start after the hybrid exp penalty was removed. Eh, we'll see.

I'd ditch her, she's no good.

It was pretty rough. I got her setup with some gear and we made Iksars together. After three hours she had a hard time walking and was constantly getting lost/stuck in objects. She also really hated how you don't have much in terms of skill progression and she was just whacking things for several hours.

The dream was over. I remember back when everquest dropped thinking " Wow, if I could find a girl to grind orcs with me, I would be set for life! "

I blame her parents mostly, they never got her into any 3d engine games so she has horrible spatial awareness. Great with Titan's quest/Diablo clones. Though anything first person or even 3rd person 3d gives her motion sickness.

On the bright side, she let me quit my job to play more often and she is working 60 hours weeks. I just need to get over this re-roll curse so I can really start to neckbeard it up.

I find this slightly funny since EQ, to me, is just a text game with graphics. I can't really think of any other game, especially an MMORPG, where it was completely okay to have min clip plane and stare at the floor during a raid for the entire fight because computers sucked and Voodoo graphic cards still existed.

Spatial awareness. EQ. Lol. You're funny, man.

You think actually she's working those extra 20 hours a week? LOL.
