I bet IGE or whoever was waiting in the midst.... stalking you.... waiting for the right moment to tell SE of your underhanded dealings
"As soon as they release PUP AF, we strike!" they said.
Im getting kinda sick and tired of people trashing on online games simply because they are online... its a fucking hobby!! ok?
You do it to pass time, you do it for some mild entertainment, you do it because YOU LIKE FUCKING DOING IT
Sure its addictive, but hell you like doing it, thats why its addictive. I bowl on Thursday nights (yeah lolbowling) When Im done do i get anything out of it? no! I do it because I like it, and just like this game I work at it. I dont go up there, throw the ball in the gutter, mutter "this sucks" to myself and take my seat, I TRY.
So does it matter that I choose to spend my free time at a computer from time to time, no.... One could argue that I should be more physically active, and usually the people that tell me that have no hobby in their life than going clubbing 3 nights a week.
Some people widdle (sp?) wood, some people build ships in bottles, some jog or run, work out, bowl, shoot darts, hang out, play games, build models, go clubbing, smoke pot.
They do it because they enjoy it and if they enjoy it enough they sink alot of time into it, its not anyones job or right to criticize someone else, or tell me what I SHOULD be doing with my time, I hate that too, other hobbies are not more noble. I have 4 75 jobs and im proud of it, it took alot of time and i spent extra time trying to gear them decently, I enjoyed it.
But fuck you Mr. Holier than thou for being amazed and worshiping some guy because he jogs 5 miles every day. I look at the track in the park and I see a giant hamster wheel, with idiots running just fast enough so they can leave their farts behind and pretend they dont stink. I used to go to the gym, and I used to enjoy it, but I never acted like my decision on how to spend my free time was better than someone else's.
Ryujin, if you truly felt that this game was hurting you, that it was hindering your life, that it was a trap and you couldn't say no... Then you sir, have poor impulse control, poor will power. And because this game was taken from you, instead of you making the decision to leave, you haven't learned anything, and the next hobby or temptation or whatever you find to fill the void left from FFXI.... That will become your new captor, your new prison.
