Well...mabey youre right again.
However lets look at it like this. Youre in the lake of ill omen
wanting to hunt, but you log in at the wrong time and the place is crawling
with people, no fun.

To get to another zone near my level I would have to hop on the boat or log
out.
There is no real soloution to this really. I only wish they would make more
stuff spawn when there are
a lot of people in zone. That would be nice.

I should have said. If you keep playing what else NEW is there to do.
New equipment? Sure if you wanna sit on a spawn for a decade.
Quests? ok, quests can be fun, but too few of them are worth it and
once they are done they are pretty much done.

Play different characters...ok you got me here, this can be fun.

Again youre right about this I guess.
I DO ahve fun sometimes...however I find myself getting more and more
jaded as time goes on. Mabety I need an EQ vacation?

Ok...Im not afraid to admit that I was saying some rash things.
I have been feeling burned out on EQ lately and after reading the way that
VI swept the lullaby fix under the carpet...well...I let myself get out of
hand..:P

In perfect honesty, to me the bard is the saving grace of EQ.
FUnnest class I have played ( ok monks are pretty fun too IMHO ).

Sorry for using the mailing list as a punching bag.
Can you ever forgive me? *sniff sniff* :(
