I don't suffer so I can boast to the likes of you that's for sure. That would be a dumb reason for working hard. You're here today gone tomorrow so you're a dead end. Greatness to you is a pair of boots which let you run quicker in a universe that lacks taste, smell, touch and can disappear overnight.

If you love existing in that virtual universe so much you wouldn't be trying to speed it up you would be trying to slow it down to savor every moment.

Instead, you're trying to reach 60 ASAP. You want to be 'great' as quick as possible with minimal effort and the rewards reflect that.

On a side note a Barb Shaman told me that beauty is subjective so there's not just 'conventional' beauty. But I don't see anybody spending their time camping things that make themselves weak do you?

Me: "What you doing today Shaman?"
Shaman: "I'm gonna go camp 40 hours for an item that gives me -50 STR and -50 WIS"
Me: "You're supposed to be strong not weak"
Shaman: "Society taught you that there is only one type of strength but there isn't"
Me: "You're going to be weak though"
Shaman: "I won't have conventional strength but I will still be strong"
Me: "You will be a burden on others"
Shaman: "dat's racist"
[some time later]
Shaman tells you, "Can I loot your corpses because I can't kill anything and can you powerlevel me for free?"

"Waste of time, waste of time" Ah, I am fascinated to wonder what important, boastworthy things OP is spending his time on. He must be playing some truly challenging, hardcore video games in between tilling the soil and working on hydroelectric projects.

Not exactly "real subtle" about how bitter you are about how much precious time in your life you have wasted on trivial BS LoL [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

PS this subforum is quiclly devolving into forum AIDS even worse than off-topic. Obviously none of the "writers" around here and getting paid for their creative writing skills - ever... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Why does off-topic have wayy more actual ranting and flaming these days than the "Rants and flames?" LoL

Im asking for a friend

Based on the previous raid scene disparity, I'd say there's more to it than you all realized?

Here are some ideas to make the game more challenging,

• Remove multi-questing.
• Remove trading.
• Remove floor transfers.
• Remove racial perks.
• Remove lowbie buffing/ports.
• Remove pre-nerf loot.
• Remove Bard swarming.
• Remove fungi tunic.
• Remove level 1 weapon procs.
• Remove epic weapons.
• Remove Torpor spell.
• Remove SoW.
• Remove Clarity.
• Remove Lich.
• Remove Cannibalize.
• Remove instant invis items.
• Make charm more unreliable.
• Increase mana cost of spells.
• Increase mob damage.
• Increase mob health.
• Make mobs smart instead of dumb.
• Increase faction requirements.
• Hardcore mode only.
  

I'm not sure how you can fix EQ being an evironment in which you waste your life working for nothing of value.

You don't have to do any of that...just compete. Literally all you have to do to make it challenging and fun.
