    I told my counselor that I'd stopped playing and she gave me a -LOOK-.  I had to explain that I meant I was taking a break to play Minecraft for a little.

    You hear a job describe their "promotions" in such a way that it reminds you of taking and passing Tier exams in the Sentaari.

    Needless to say, I'll be applying for that job in March. >_>

    That was just Clexx trolling you irl.

    When you dream you were AFK and someone tried to rob you with RP instead of mechanics. And you felt bad for not responding. 

    Yeah. I apparently dream in text now.

    When texting or in a chat you keep wanting to use say/wt/ht/clt/gt before anything else and every now and then it slips out

    Dreaming in text, Aetolia style. Has happened more than once. There was one instance, when Ashtan was still around, that I had an RP session with Indelacio and Truft. I woke up the next day and figured that it had truly happened. Was interesting getting to the bottom of that.

    I miss Indalecio. He was awesome.

    You look at a document stating a person's name as "Kenesha" and do a double-take because you read it as "Keshena."

    Everyone laughs at me when I even talk about quitting. Ever. I'm not even talking about the rare occasion it's in an angry I'MGOINGTOQUITRIGHTNOWBECAUSEGRAAAHRAGE sort of sense.

    It's just. A fact, that some day, I will stop playing Aetolia. But no one seems to believe I will, believe I can, or believe I'm capable of doing so if I want to. And they laugh at me when I say it's possible.

    :/ I'm going to be 80 years old and still playing Aetolia, apparently.

    I think I'll still be MUDing when I'm old, even if I'm not playing Aetolia, Achaea or any other IRE. I consider this my hobby.

    I find it difficult to get into another mud. Aetolia has spoiled me.

    SERIOUSLY. Even when I have a laundry list of things I can't stand about Aetolia at any given time, I can never find another MUD that I keep coming back to the way I do here. Whyyyyyyyy

    For me, it's largely the people (Admin and regular players alike) and then the fact that Aetolia is probably the most organized/neat/user friendly of all the MUDs I've tried out there that draw me back. I've spent maybe $100 ($200 max if I count fan-art and gifts and stuff) in my entire Aetolian career so investment is not a factor for me.

    For me it's the ridiculously high RP standards. Really.

    Aetolia is also one of the prettier MUDs out there. Nothing like having an off-brand MUD vomit abhorrently clashing ascii in your face to make you think that hey maybe Aetolia wasn't so bad after all.

    That's a very good point, and one I've been seeing a lot of now that I've been klutzing about on MUSHes and the like.

    Sure, we're playing a game made of text, but we have pretty echoes. We have things arranged nicely into tables with colors that make the data eye-catching and meaningful. That's actually pretty rare.

    Do not forget an alphabetized WHO and QWHO list. That is HIGHLY important and we have it.

    For me it's because Aetolia has the most mature playerbase I've found in any online game to date.

    Something about this scares me.

    Me too. I just don't know if it's related to Aetolia or to the rest of the gaming community I know. ;)

    I've played too much Aetolia. Because I got a call from Pilar (forget if it was a service provider or another call center). And went...!? And had to stop and think about it before I gave my reply.
