I have tried to keep this "world" as a time filler always, sometimes it can become so addictive that a friend might invite me out for a good night of boozin and croozin that i might actually tell him im busy... Thats not coo.
Much as i love all the folks ive met on this mud or about 95% of them, in reality unless this game is going to make you money or get you laid it should never overcome real life priorities. Not only for this game but for all games.
I will play arctic as long as it is running, never fully walk away unless a group of careless trolls decides theyd rather hunt me without cause than group with me each time i log.
I have enjoyed all my time spent in this alternate world learning and helping others learn. Its seen me through many rough times and good ones. It is as i said a good "time filler" but it should never be "all the time".
If you decide to entirely find a new hobby kaffe my old buddeh.. make sure to drop by and say hello now and then : )
But a new hobby yes. if you are the type to get 4 legendary chars, it is absolutely time to get a new hobby : ) cut it down to one and pick up an instrument, sexy lady or dude w.e your preference : p, or go work out or something, its unhealthy to invest that much time into anything.
Too much of ANYTHING, is too much.
