I’m sorry my point went over your head; you care too much, and very few people care about how many yellow texts you’ve got or how mediocre your salary is. The fact you find the need to brag about it says it all.

Fail.

You don't get to claim "I care too much" for pointing out a logical fallacy made by literally 30% of this board.

Nice try though!

Of course I can, and I can call you out on the fact you’ve been asked to back up your statement and you’re yet to do it. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I think the point is pretty clear.

Every time a guild gets out played, they say the other team lives in their moms basement. Just read through the forums if you need examples. It comes up in almost every thread.

As a simple retort, I stated that I have been both very successful in FTEing dragons and in my career.

I'm sorry if this exchange went over your head.
A monk in AG used to go on and on in guild chat about how hot his girlfriend was, at one point even offering to prove it to everyone with pictures. No one solicited this information. No one required proof. Still, he kept talking about it all the same, like he needed us to believe him. If what you have is worth less to you without an audience, it isn't yours.

It's cool how often you're able to get FTEs, considering I have a grand total of one, but unless you donate to this project, the amount of money you make is irrelevant. The only thing that matters is what you contribute to this game and its community. Updating the wiki, reporting bugs, etc. The point about playing a game isn't just to compete and/or cooperate. I can get a rare drop anywhere; I join a guild for the atmosphere and the attitude. If more people were this way, would your FTEs matter? Would your guild even exist?

First off, having money does not = being self made. Inheritance exists, etc

Secondly, there is more to life than money. Assuming you work 40 hours a week (I know YOU personally sail around the world on a yacht getting blown by team of Scandinavian models, but for the sake of argument let’s use someone who claims to be middle class, and not a lying keyboard warrior), that means no bat phones between the hours of 8am -6pm assuming normal commutes

Then there’s the other activities of daily living, such as preparing food. Taking care of one’s health by exercising. Spending time with family, and socializing IRL. How much more do you want to whittle down your bat phone availability for these activities?

If you are making a ton of money by not spending actual time working, gratz, but you’re not a good example of a healthy work gaming life balance. And if you ARE working a lot of hours AND earning tons of DKP, then something else is giving, whether that’s time with friends and family, your health, or both

It’s a simple matter of there only being so much time in a day
