You don't look very casual to me. Maybe it applies to this past 6 months or so when your activity is clearly reduced versus prior levels. More generally, your use of that word appears in my opinion influenced by the high-end echo chamber where players are regarded as "casual" if they aren't putting in 50+ hours a week or staring at walls for half a day at a time. You're only casual compared to the nolifers who have nothing besides P99. Otherwise it's clear enough you're a fairly driven player who's reducing hours lately, possibly due to burnout, possibly due to other factors.
As I understand and use the term: Casuals aren't attending over a thousand raid events. Casuals aren't hanging out in temple veeshan. They aren't giving video game guilds their contact info or putting themselves on-call. They aren't decking out multiple high-level characters with high-end drops. They're not usually going to play somebody else's character(s) over their own. Genuine casual players are largely invisible from the high end; due to the nature of how Velious is laid out the casual players and high-end players seldom cross paths. It's a matter of perspective I suppose.
