From the balking and the shouts and rants of Non-RPers on our server, it is the actual reality of it.No, it's actually just your opinion.

So long as you pay your sub fee, you can log in once a month, write a very in-depth emote of your character taking a massive dump, check your retainers and log out and you'd still be playing the game.

Seriously, who gives a shit. They're faceless people behind a screen in god-knows-where complaining on the Internet, wow. Wow.

Â You can stop looking at the actual game part of the RPG we share as some sort of "work" to be done, it is meant to be engaging and fun rather than work, and grinding is at your own pace of course. Â You can choose to help your FC or LS members with things, grow your Rank together, use the buffs given, make friends with those who are not RPers (because frankly we are lucky on Balmung, and there are some amazing Non-RPers here), and just generally put yourself out there to do something that isn't for personal gain, and have real fun and be of more literal use than someone we can call upon to provide a "good character".Don't tell me how to live my life. How would you feel if I told you all my facts and truths about people who don't play Verminion are ruining this game because the devs put a lot of work into it and it's part of the full game how dare you don't play it. Seriously though you don't get to decide what people enjoy and don't enjoy. If someone doesn't want to do content... ... ?????? I'll reiterate: Who cares? There are no rules on how to properly play an MMO, just Terms of Service. And be of use, what the hell? We're not trying to open the gates of Ahn'Qiraj here, Christ.
Not going to lie dude, this whole rant either seems like something you wrote when you were piss drunk or something. This whole part about "playing the game all proper like" seems to me more like a scared rant from someone afraid of getting bullied by the big scary PvEers than anything else. You do your own thing I'll worry about me, yeah? Shouldn't be too hard, I've no idea who you are and I've never seen you in-game, so... Some community, huh?
