Makes sense.
No, that's turning a video game into a 2nd (or 1st!) job, which sadly is the barrier of entry to raiding on this server.

Is it not normal to have to spend hundreds of hours prepping to fight people for a chance at EQ mobs?

This just in: effort only counts if it's manual labor.

Guess we can go back to an agrarian economy because anything else is effortless and therefore isn't worth anything.

Does the slob who sits at the same slot machine in the same casino day in and day out pushing the same buttons for the same reasons over and over again expend effort doing so? No. He's there because it's all too easy for him. Sure, he's winning jackpots others aren't winning, but he's still a loser.

If killing dragons is so easy why don't you do it then?

I've killed dragons, back when it was harder because there was less of them. And yes, it was easy when I had all the time in the world and didn't bother finding something better to do with it.

Ah, we're at the "my hobbies are better than your hobbies" part. Okay.

Is this a good thing or bad thing? I have trouble reading you sometimes and what you infer.
