I'll probably stop when Rogean and company decide to shut down the server.

I might stop or play less if they ever decide to wipe the server clean and start over.

I'm in the opposite boat. I would undoubtedly start again once they shut down and pass the code to someone else.

I really would like to vote, but with no Bsh/Twr option my hands are tied =(

References to Jet Fuel and/or Steel Beams Melting are adequate substitutions for Bush Towers as well.

You could push forum decorum to the limits and go some sort of ZOG/Flat Earth route and we may let it pass, but its not guaranteed

idk I haven't played eq in a while.

and I haven't gammed at all in a couple of months outside a bit of Legion....I think not gaming is a sign of mental problem if you aren't replacing that activity with something better.

I got a lot of overhead im dealing with the next 1-2 weeks (shit keeps piling up and Im surrounded by un-woke sleepy devious motherfuckers and negativity) so my creativity is shot as you have to get pretty violent (or vitriolic) to push back on negative people so I don't care to expound upon the above very much at the moment. I got nothing in the tank.

But basically I determined that when friends stop gaming completely, its usually a bad sign among vaccinated people. I have never seen it be a good sign.

Just my experience and observations.

hmm I did have one friend get married, but hes really unstable with weird depressive episodes (cant have any alcohol or he literally crawls under a bush face down on his belly and cries ( streaming tears) on his cell phone to whoever his current girlfriend was, even if they had only got together recently)

whenever he quit gaming for months at a time it was generally assumed he was in a very dark place.

Interesting take... When I have stopped gaming I found myself "wasting" the same amount of time on other things like imgur.com user-sub, bad TV (not enough good shit out there to meet my needs).

So basically now I have embraced gaming as a much needed catharsis, relaxation, social engagement as a person who moves around the globe multiple times every year. You'd be surprised how well gaming with the same elf pals can help fill that social need.

As long as I'm not binging on weed, my game habit Is quite healthy. But when I start smoking kush early, my brain function goes so bad that the only thing I can manage is grinding hrs of games that would be unappealing sober.

Right. EQ only ever appealed to me because its low APM.

High APM without enhancement (caffeine/Adderall) is actually pretty stressful for an adult male.

We aren't 20 anymore and I think that's why a lot of us hang around EQ a bit. Most will readily admit they don't do high APM.

this is accurate. no games is a big problem. I even mentioned it when some guy was going vyrenoth. I was like "yea...um...he hasn't gamed at all in like......a year"

I knew it meant real bad stuff was going on. And sure enough bad stuff happened.

I don't really see a reason to stop. I enjoy it ^^ I will not have children and it fits within my relationships, so I don't see a point in abandoning it. There so much to do and with the amount of time I have to invest, I don't think I will run out of things to do before I die ^^ Newer games are less like worlds and more like games and are far too busy and less social.
