Since people seem interested here's a quick story about my life:

Played poker for a living during law school on FTP, Black Friday happened April 2011. Got bored with nothing to do while wife @ work during day, played lots of EQ, culminating with making Red Dawn.

Graduate, make my own tax resolution company, have kids, work 12 hours a day, little time to play EQ anymore.

Tried to get immersed in Velious but quickly got burnt out by there being no challenge, the intensive raid schedule and pressure to be 100% or close to it with RA. In Nihilum, having 70% RA + meant you were a neckbeard, in Empire, 70% was the equivalent of being inactive status. I've heard/seen the raid schedule has been severely compacted over the last several weeks though to only a few days a week, but I just couldn't get immersed anymore, game wasn't fun.

I play EQ2 for 30-45 minutes a day on avg, and about 0 on weekends. Probably less.

The sad truth is, I have little to no time for video games anymore, and even when I do, I've gotten to the point of life where having people shout at you in TS isn't fun anymore. I enjoy playing Mario Kart on the Wii with my kid more than MMO's now. Actually wait, that doesn't sound sad at all.

I hope this was a very informative autobiography of my life and I encourage you to give it a five star review on Amazon.

The End.

Damn I also played pokerstars and full tilt for a living until April and headset hair never a good thing. Good luck in future endeavors
