I dont know how you guys can stand the grind in EQ. I leveled one character, but Im unable to level more, it feels so tedious and unhealthy. Now Im only doing fun dungeon crawls with small groups, solo challenge targets, things like that. Unable to do serious quests like epics. Unable to raid due to the detestable atmosphere. Im not addicted cause I never touched pixels and thats probably key.
very good post. it a bit glum, but message is good: priorities define addiction. if you lust for pixels, then you gonna chase them and when you struggle to secure you pixels, you gonna be a nasty person because you be mad without you pixels.

DONT CHASE PIXELS!!!

I want to add something, cause this is of course a serious issue. I guess EQ addiction has something to do with how we think the game... lets talk about the core base of EQ mechanics : XP. how can you guys stand leveling grind, even in a group ? 99% of the time groups are static, we sit in boring ass zones like Karnor wait for the puller to single, rince repeat and no one is even talking. I know what people do, they stare at their XP bar as if its the end goal, most of us want to level as fast as they can, so they maximize Xp flow . Lol, not my definition of EQ. I cant stay more than 1 hour in groups like these. Most of the time I end up thinking this game sucks if we have to endure grouping for pure XP. Dungeons crawls are inexistant, because people dont want to risk loosing a fraction of their precious XP. And when w're talking about pixels (raids apart) people have to camp for hours on end (ever saw that necro in Kaesora did 80+ hours for a fear staff?) my god. This is mental disorder for sure.
For those who are in trouble with their playing habits, maybe its time to ask yourself why you play and how. Are you having real fun here, do you feel adrenaline rushes when you go for hunting ? Does the pixel really enhance your play style ? Etc..

It's always been bad, I just think it didn't used to suck the more casual guilds into the same mentality.
