Any roll for loot guilds on Green?

IMO If you are scheduling your life around a video game you are no longer casual.

Nah, you're just shortsighted and see things in black and white while ignoring the greys. Not that my post even says I schedule to play very often as I usually just play when it's convenient for me, but don't most people schedule their hobbies?

Sports fans schedule hours to watch games, hikers schedule days for hiking trips, people plan drinks with friends sometimes at a moment's notice (batphoned!), FPS players schedule times to FPS with their boys, basketweavers schedule time to basketweave, etc... At the end of the day EQ is a hobby for most players so giving people shit for scheduling time for their hobby is just strange and out of touch.

The truest neckbeards on blue are maybe a total of 20-25 people between the top two guilds that seem to have an unusually high amount of time to play, but hey, to each their own if that's your bag. I'm physically fit/active and have a great RL while still managing to kill some dragons and hang out with my internet friends a couple times a week. If that's copium then I'm coping hard! It's honestly never been better to be a casual player on P99. I've never once been pressured by my guild to play more than I do, and they are always happy when I show up to help out.

I agree with you generally, but if you're cancelling other plans on a weekend for example because things are in window then I would say you're not a casual. Sometimes choosing to not make plans on like a Friday night because your guild raids X zone each week that night does not make you a neckbeard like the other guy claims though.
