Yeah without EQ I would have had no idea how to articulate to others how I like to light myself on fire...

In school there was a direct negative correlation between the hours I spent logged into EverQuest and my grades. The same is happening again it seems!

There are a bunch of words I first heard of from everquest and they will always be linked to eq. just last week there was some Jeopordy answer that had an eq word in it and it brought a smile to my face.

eq also helped me to absolutely crush my 8th grade typing class exam.

I learned most of what I know of the english language by interacting with others on Everquest.

Aside from that, the game helps me save up my money as I dont go out and spend my cash as often since I now have an activity to do at home.

Playing EQ grew me a fat jutting epeen that only a mother could love.

Right on, my teacher asked me if i hired a tutor and told her his name was EQ. She told me she was proud of me for taking some initiative in my life for once.

Yes, but it's ok, you're among friends (or at least fellow nerds).
