Have you lost someone because of EQ? - Page 2

It wasn't the main reason but one of them for why I broke up with a GF in college. She kinda went off the deep end with this Campus Crusade group in college (Christian activist group). Breaking up with her meant more time for EQ which was a bonus [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I was in high school when EQ came out. Me and 2 other friends had been anticipating the games release for months (me and one of the friends were in beta) Everything was good when it was released. Except for the third friend. After just a couple months, he went from nerdy teachers pet kind of guy to, dropping out of high school and never talking to anyone outside his house. I didn't see that guy again for at least 6 or 7 years. Turned out he eventually peeled away from EQ and joined the military lol. As for me the only thing I lost over EQ was sleep. Lots and lots of sleep lol.

I lost a girlfriend in high school because I would play like 10 hours a day, but it led me to meet my wife.

And my wife has a nicer ass, so it's win-win.

I had 2 friends drop out of college due to their heavy mmorpg schedules, but the culprits then were AC and DAoC. I'm surprised all of my old EQ buddies came out unscathed more or less. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

So your GF in High School was a mean ass and your wife is a nicer ass?

I argued and fought with my wife alot over EQ when I played live, although she got over herself eventually. I told her if she doesn't like it to gtfo and leave me alone. We got married less than a year before I started playing EQ and we're still married and we celebrated our 11th anniversary in May...

And your 2nd grade mind thought that up to be clever, right? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

No. My college level mind noticed his bad grammar and had to comment :P
But I did notice your failed attempt at insulting random internet strangers! I wonder how many of your type would even bother opening their mouths if they were not protected by internet anonymity?

My type? Now you're going into a whole different ballpark buddy, you don't know me, and I don't know you, nor do I care to know you to be honest.

I'm not trying to start a fight, I just thought your comment was a little "2nd grade-ish" that is all.

He said SHE got over HERSELF. Like it was HER doing the obsessive gaming. Classics this.
