Off course I post about what makes me happy - I see you have no problems
developing your own list.
To each his own - my point is, you hit level 50 - then what? I'm not trying
to take away anything from your experience - perhaps broaden your horizons
just a bit.
I guess in my apparently inept way - I'm advising you to stop and smell the
flowers. Value those around you a bit more - appreciate the little things
that can make for a fuller experience.
That is the one fatal flaw EQ made that will probably forever keep it from
being a true virtual world - the level system denotes an end.
