Step 1. Post a SS of your /played.

Step 2. Average out the hours played.

Figure out the number of hours of your total played and the total hours since you make your characters birthdate, then divide those numbers, and finally multiply by 24 to find out how many hours you play a day on average.

Link to a "Hours since X days" Calculator (http://www.mathcats.com/explore/elapsedtime.html)

I.e. 36 days 5 hours = 869, divided by 1869 hours since birthday = 0.4583+, times 24 =

My Total: 11 hours a day.




Step 3: Accept your Glory or Shame!

I remember when combine came out and I used to have contests with my guild leader to see who could maintain the highest /played sessions.

I think I ended up having one of the highest days /played on that server. I never logged out. Playing a rogue helped too... about to pass out? Hide/sneak, night.

Its a fact, that I have never actually pooped in a sock.

However I do have a fine line of poop sock products for sale! For only 10pp you can buy the basic model, up to 15,000pp for black sapphire encrusted silk-lined poop socks.

Man I used to get a sick feeling in my stomach whenever I typed /played on my main on live, which was over 300 days in PoP. And that was with very little not AFK time since I still had dial up then.

It was like "fuck, I've spent over an ENTIRE YEAR of my life actively playing this game."

Probably up to or close to over 2 years by now.

~10% of my life playing EQ.

oh man oh man

You know, I never boasted such a high play time.....but I can say this. I was always kind of a home-body person. I like staying home with my son, and not going out all the time. While I played EverQuest, I watched 2 of my friends get DWI's, 1 of my friends get jail-time for a bar fight, and numerous other things that happened while I was sitting on my computer.

Also, while they were out spending 200 dollars a weekend at the bar, I bought a 12 pack and payed 15 bucks a month to do something that probably kept me out of more trouble than I can imagine.

I probably owe my clean record to EverQuest LOL

I can definitely credit EQ with keeping me out of trouble. I was friends with some real bad people too for a while, but this game was more fun to me then they were.

Edit: So come on people, post some crazy /played pics!

I have a friend I got started playing EQ. He had a son who was about 15 at the time. His son was getting in some trouble.. hanging out with the wrong people and such.

His Dad got him playing EQ and it really changed his life around.

He wanted to stay home and play instead of going out starting shit. His Dad said if he went to school and at least passed, he could continue to play eq and would pay for it.

He is now an electrician making 35 an hour and still plays MMO's.

Ok so I played the first few years of EQ on a 56k only able to play after 10pm during high school. (meant no sleep usually) Not exactly a sick number considering this was over 4 years but I never AFK'd and well it is a cool picture I still have saved from when I retired in 04.

The two truisms of online gaming:

Anyone worse than you is a noob.
Anyone better than you has no life.

Not a bad idea, unless the kid gets so addicted he just gives up on life.

But... it's not a bad idea if you watch them.

Maybe set another limit wherein they need at least 1 friend to stay over for the night each month.

Kind of fun to think about all of the things you could request that they do if they want EQ.

Mow the lawn is another good one. Take out the trash. Etc.

This is like a wall of 'Heros' for a MMO. Mine would only pale in comparison right now. Always something coming up now to keep me from playing~ :mad:
