When you use terms like "losing part of my humanity" it is a red alert that you need to stop cause it effects you on more then just ingame.
When the game involves a community of people, along with talking heads, that's where that line gets blurred, especially when you find yourself either the outsider or fearing becoming the outsider.


It sounds easy to just find another static, fc, community, or linkshell, but for some people it isn't. Sometimes they saw friends on the other side of that achievement fence. Sometimes they've lost friends trying to get over it to be with them.
