    You claim that this, the "Real World," is actually based on a number of fake or false suggestions and brings doubt to the legitimacy of calling this the "Real World." Through your examples you state that peoples' goals/dreams/aspirations in the "Real world" are determined largely by comparing themselves to others that appear in mainstream society and media. Due to the fact that most media (such as TV) is based in fiction, people are then setting unachievable goals based on situations that do not really exist. Conversely, the world that is presented by FFXIV and other MMO's do not suffer from such circumstances. Players have the freedom do what they want and are able to set goals/desires on things that are actually attainable. Therefore the world of FFXIV is more real than this one.

    Please let me know if this is an accurate assessment of your case or if I have missed anything.
    Basically Laws apply to Real-world, that dont let you have the Freedom you should have. so I am talking about FReedom.

    This is a good anology.

    Could you expand on this? What laws are you referring to and what freedoms are they limiting?

    You have a job if you are a Man/Woman at age 19+ You must work daily to achieve your goals and what you must do for those days. If you are smart you are going to a daily job that allows you to do the things you want to do with someone or friends. At the end of the day or during the day you hope to have lunch or talk with the boss or friends at work and achieve more goals and reputation. When you are ready to go home. The same thing applies you go home to hope to talk to someone about more things and hopefully to have fun in something else at home. You often feel lost in movies or TV because you are constantly watching programs in that you hope to do something like that one day or you feel you need to be that person in TV or movies that you see. You have no real conversations with anybody as you hope to express or feel what concerns you and you hope that it concerns others.

    If you are a Woman, you are constantly preparing for other things and other days. you dont look at the days as one/day at a time more like one week at at time. So, you have no time for just days. You are constantly planning ahead and hoping that one day it will pay off. You sit in front of the TV 8+ hours a day hoping realizing, that one day the programs will influence you and you will make a decision, one day to realize you dont like your life. You hope that everything will fall into your lap and you will live this FAntasy way of living that is broadcasted on the TV, or movies. That life doesn't exist and prince charming doesn't exist. However, you still think that one day it will all change and you will do anything to get to it. No matter who you hurt. You will have this life. You will put a mask on and pretend to enjoy your life and you will be in misery for the most part until you are unsatisfied with the outcome of the Real world and you fall into Alcohol, Drugs, Sex, Money. In your life there is at least one you will fall into. The Real World has your life that evolves around this and it is a famous pattern.

    The Real World is intended for you not to like your life and to view others and TV, Movies, Events to better your life and to see that your way of life is not working. If you dont believe me how many Seminars have you been too. How many speakers do you know? How many religious books do you own? YOur mind must be exercised, but how can it you let it watch and dream all day long on Fantasy. Wondering about fantasy, reading about Fantasy. Striving for fantasy. Love books, Novels Day-time tv
    DRamas, soap Operas, Game shows, real life situations, goverment, you want to be involved or you will be considered NOTHING. Wrong, wrong, wrong, The way you live is right. The way you feel is right. As you were born their was only one way to feel and live by faith. You were born and by faith you lived. Their was no choice. When the Real World entered your mind and you understood the language(s) then you made decisions and then you yourself made the right choice all the time. The limitations were told to you by your parents, teachers, goverment officials.

    By these three, you feel you are obligated to do the right thing. You discover what is right and what is wrong by your mind and the emotions of others. How big is this World? and what do I have to do to understand it? Exactly....


    Now if your a guy you feel lonely all the time. YOu hope that your voice and actions are those that are imitated by someone famous. You love thinking of Women, money and Sex all day long as you hope to involve your life around this. You feel women understand you and you hope to achieve the goals daily. You like talking bad about anything and hope that someone will understand you. You are Greedy and you want the World at your feet one day for Power. You ofthen think of Men of Great Power and you fantasy yourself in those positions. You dont feel its a bad thing Money, Power, Glory, and so you watch Tv that glorifies all of your decisions. Most Guys on TV and movies and in Real-life act as you do. So you must follow the same pattern or you will be a outcast. You feel you will lose everthing if you dont follow the same pattern as most guys. so you change your language, act, talking, personality to fit the pattern. Deep down your really lost, deep down your crying for FANTASY......

    Now that I have covered the Real-World What is Fantasy World. LImitations? what can you do? What do you want to do? Is there a Three Officials telling you what to do? what level can you achieve? Can you make the TV, Movies, in what you see real here? what is the right Way? Are you dreaming, no this is Fantasy World? So you can be yourself here. What is the right way to live here? What is the right way to play? who is the Leader? whats the Law?

    Make a list of all the things you want to do in real-life that you strive for and apply them to the Fantasy World. Guess what they come true. That is why you feel you dont understand Fantasy Worlds. They are what you strive for what you live for? Everything comes true here. so make your dreams come true.

    This is not the REal-World
    These are the laws that are bound to you as you entered the Real-world, before you had Fantasy, but now you must be in the Real-world for a time until the Source decides that time is when. What is the Source? I believe we have seen the Source in our lives, everyday. It is the eternal source that drives you to the next day or the next question. If I have gone too far as to know what I am talking about. I will explain. It is biblical but to know the Source as to what I beieve is what I came from since birth. Maybe that is the case for everyone. we just have to explore the options. okay well i hope that is what your asking?

    Seriously, though, your perception is hilariously skewed. So bitter!

    So where does you trying to pretend to be someone else by creating a new character fit into all of this?

Everthing you find in fantasy as your char sits there is what you reflect it off. You tell me the thread means nothing. Yet you leech off of a company that soothes your need for Fantasy. your very words are CRap, and I dont have to hear the ground speak. I know the one that made the fibers in your being and keeps it all attached to move and breathe. Your ignorance is that, you dont have to do anything. NOr does Dust.
