My typing skills changed alot once I started playing this around age 15.

I became more aggressive and intolerant of people invading my camp.

I've been playing EQ for about 17 months. For 15 months now I haven't been able to procure an erection.

I learned the meanings of "amiable" and "lupine".

It taught me how to communicate exactly, and concisely what I need to get across to people. I gained the ability to type 100+ words per min. and remember being better than my teachers.

Everquest actually has given me several extremely close friendships that I have maintained over the past 10 years outside of MMO's. Gave me the ability to handle leadership positions (Since I used to lead raids back in the day...taught me a lot about planning and how to give concise instructions etc)

Ever quest has given me an intense hatred of halflings.

[Akame]

I got a job through a guildmate because of my work as an officer of my guild on live.
I was a bridesmaid for another guildmate.
I can type 76+ WPM because of being a raid leader before Vent's existence.
I went from failing English to nearly acing every writing and reading comprehension test I've run across.
I am a better leader now because of my experiences with large scale guilds.
I still probably wasted a solid year of my life in front of a computer.

The leadership skills learned in the Army where only a precursor to the leadership skills i learned in EQ. Interpersonal relationship skills and how to deal with people of varying backgrounds and differences.

EQ taught me how to grow up while still being a kid at heart.
