Anarchy Online - On and off probably about 2 years. started again early this years but it didn't last

.....found WoW instead though and so hours, days and weeks of my life are lost again :p ;)

lol in order to end my MMO love i played EVE and the Beta for dark and light.

Those 2 games stopped 9 years of addiction in less than a month !

KO - was my first mmo and i still play it form time to time as i have some good friends on there. (around 3 years).

WoW - currently stuck on this for over a year now, funny thing is i'm enjoying it more now than i was 3 months ago.
 
Ultima - 1 year
EQ - 2 years
DAOC - 3 years
Lineage 2 - 1 year

Been clean for the past 2 years and really will never play a mmorpg again (no matter how tempting).

I played EQ for 5 years, I think it was more burning out than breaking an addiction. It got to the point where I was putting EQ before other things in my life and that's when it had to stop, it helped that the latest expansion was utter tripe :)

Now I don't have the attention span for MMO's or games in general to play them like I used to in EQ. I still play EVE but I value my fitness, diet, social lifestyle etc. too much to be consumed by a game ever again as much as EQ did to me.
 
Played these damn things since the early MUDS.

Tried every MMO out but was horribly addicted to UO and EQ for years. Used to get up early in the morning just to get an hour or so before work, that kind of thing.

Still playing them but more casually although when LOTRO comes out I'm sure I'll be spending far too much time with that.

Ukadder, any chance of getting me in your Vanguard guild?

At the moment were not accepting anyone to the guild until the game has offically been released. I'll happly post which server we will start on thou if you fancy trying to join when it's released.

Were a euro raiding guild, did a few game wide 1st in EQ and most of the server firsts, were really puppy dogs when you get to know us thou! :cool:
 
Sounds good. Have you got a guild forum or anything? Trying to think of the best way of making contact - vanguard is a way off and chances are I'll forget.
