Never thought of that. I have an old laptop I could use to play it on when I am at work.

No, it's just my wife is nerdier than your wife, and she'll play XBox for as many hours as I'll play EQ. :) Also, I work part-time.

Correction:

You need 4-6hrs in the evening to play an old game from 1999 that you are addicted to.

Play a Druid. ;)

get a new wife and dont have kids. I put my foot down with mine...she watches TV and was complaining I wasnt but I was playing EQ...I explained and now she plays EQ.

Haha, the multi-kiter kings. I would love to play an sk or ranger again, I will prob end up playing a wiz again just because I dont have any twink gear and you depend more on spells than anything.

I have 2 kids(twin boys) and a fiance. I usually just stay logged in all day, AFK most the time. When I get the chance Ill kill mobs till im OOM then afk while I med and mingle with the kids. I also have a timer for when I camp named camps, kill the PH or what ever and AFK till time is almost up. I dont really do my "hardcore" gaming untill they are sleeping. I set aside specific times during the week where Ill be AFK for long periods of times so I can spend time with all 3 of them, watch TV and play with the boys etc etc.

Im a highly competitve xbox gamer, so I almost never turn my xbox on untill theyre all sleeping so I can concentrate 100% of the game, well mostly 100% they boys still wake up at night sometimes and I gotta get them back to sleep. My game room is close to theirs, having a headset for both xbox(turtle beach x31's!) and PC is a must when playing when everyone is sleeping so I can still hear what I want to hear with out waking everyone up.

Making time for EQ is what 'you' the gamer decides they want to sacrifice.

I currently play a Shadow Knight, and I love it. (It also takes me along time to level with the xp debt)

I, however am in a similiar boat you are. I just recently got married (about a month ago) and I have a difficult time trying to play P99 around my relationship. Just like what the others have been saying shes got her hobbies as well... Whether it is TV, SIMS, etc try to do it next to her or do it the same time she wants to do her hobby.

This week has been excellent for EQ time.. Apprently this whole week The Hills has been on and my wife hasn't made one mention of me being on the computer..

Thank God for The Hills.

I also play after they go to bed(wife and daughter)...I sacrifice sleep not family time. I teach, so I can stay up much later in summer...but during the school year I limit myself to midnight....so about 2.5 hours per night.. This pretty much takes me out of any raiding possibilities. But that's fine as I dont like raiding anyway.

Yup! But even if I did work part-time, I'd have some video to edit or some website to build. I work too much. Again, I am definitely not complaining. I have a corpse for you in Unrest on the front porch. ;)
