EQ2's community is special, its also what keeps at least 50% of the high end raiders here.

While its true you are special in an extra chromosome kind of way. The community in eq2 is really no different then Conan or warhammer which has its own influx of eq2 people and the like. The fact you had to dig into the whole WoW kiddie idea to support your theory only further shows it.
Hell you of all people should know this.
Why?
Because a large portion of your old guild went to Conan.
Claiming its community in eq2 is bullshit. Go play on facebook and save yourself $15 a month if its all about the community.

Edit: I am not even going to get into the whole comment about wow having a more raid centric game and more raid content because those statements are just plain ignorant.

I do not know basically 80% of the players of my playstyle in any of those games. I have not known them for over 4 years. I know them here. I talk to them regularly here. I've met tons of them irl.

Yes, we went to Conan and after we decided that game sucked, most of us came back here. Why? THE COMMUNITY. Certainly not the game. It was some place familiar where we knew people and already had invested a lot of time into our characters.

That is why people who quit EQ2 entirely still post here. Do you think they post here because of the game or the community? I mean this site has more traffic than the official forums and a lot of people here don't even play EQ2 anymore.

Yes, because Facebook has all of the EQ2 community there right? All of the EQ2 drama and the like? NO.

God you're dumb.

Lol You call me the dumb one and yet you are the one still paying for a game that you bitch about like a 12 year old girl for the last 4 years. The fact is you are to stupid to realize even though they are your own words that the majority of the people posting on flames DO NOT play eq2 anymore and play other games. It's good to know though your sole purpose playing this game is to be a drama queen. That puts alot of credence in anything you have to say.

Edit: Somehow i bet the majority of eq2 players past and present are on facebook.

Pay attention to any hobby that has a passionate fanbase and you'll quickly realize (sports, tv shows, movies) that the most passionate fans always bitch the loudest.
