Nobody expect NEETS want time sinks. I started 11 in 04 I believe since it was when I was in 8th grade and had grown out of the Runescape > Tibia > Runscape 2.0 > Monster Hunter ps2 phase and joined in based on a couple friends from MonHun recommendation. I was in 8th grade a loner outside of a couple friends so I had countless hours to play. Fast forward to 2013 I'm now in the military working 9 hours a day from 7:30-4:30 pm in a physically heavy job so I wanna get about 6-8 hours a sleep a night. That leaves me with about 5-6 hours of play time tops when I have no commitments to abide by. I want a challenge yes but not a time sink that people try to act like is a challenge. Not saying handing out all the stuff as people walk in the door but at the same time don't keep the same content from people unless they have Asperger or are a NEET. It took me about 3 weeks or so to hit 50 with my brd because I was doing other things in game other than FATES.
