I would be proud if I got paid for it as James said :P

Yeah, but you're not getting paid... that's the thing.

I don't think he heard him when he said he WOULD be proud if he was paid for it. I think that means he probably isen't since he actually isen't getting paid for it. Why post?

He's getting paid in love and happiness.

Wow, I have never seen anyone so happy about wasting 1500 hours of their life they could actually spend doing better things, like going outside, playing sports, or spending time with the family. Another thing is, that 1500 in Graal isn't really that much.. it basically means you have played for about an year and a little while. Otherwise, I would not be happy about this accomplishment. I have had my newest account for two years now, and if I add up all my hours I would only have around 2300.

So...
A) You've wasted more time.
B) Going outside is a stereotypical response. How is that any better? What are you doing outside? I'm not trying to say this is a bad idea, because I don't agree that spending all of your time doing one thing (video games or otherwise) is a good thing at all. I'm just saying it's a pretty bad counter. Is going outside better than going to a great indoor concert?
C) Sports. Very subjective. The only reason they might be considered better is they promote physical health. Otherwise, they're just as much a waste of time as any video game. Unless of course you're planning to be professional?
D) Family - Okay, I can agree with this. But really, people can have hobbies AND spend time with their family, can't they?

1. He is talking about one server, the most hours I have on 1 server is, 1100.
2. I go outside all day, because I am not only a camp counselor, but I also play basketball with my friends for hours.
3. Sports is not for just physical strength or money, you learn team work and leadership which colleges take into account when you apply for said college.
4. Graal is not a hobby, it has been classified as an addiction.

Back on topic now.

I mean, sure you can play Graal and like it
But like I dont spend my time all day on it, i have a job, when i have time to spend I go on Graal
Its as simple as that for me.

I spend all day drawing up maps for my next server.

1. You're assuming he's got 1000+ more hours on other servers.
2. Okay. Going outside is your way of having fun. What makes it the only right way to have fun?
3. Seriously? My high-school basketball experience didn't matter one iota in my college applications. Maybe if I was applying for the basketball team it might. But by your logic (game that doesn't matter = team work + leadership), I guess gang raids in Era would also teach you leadership and team work. Hell, joining the nearest cheerleading squad or playing a match of Halo could teach you team work and leadership. But I hope to God you wouldn't put any of those on your college application.
4. Anything can be an addiction. If you played basketball for eight hours a day, it'd be an addiction. You're in control of your actions. If something is an addiction, it's not the object or activity - it's your fault and your problem.

I agree.

Congrats James.

CharlieM · #30 07-17-2009, 08:08 PM

I didn't realize playing football in highschool and a year of golf helped me since they didn't ask for it, and unkown you are only like 12 years old what ccamp would hire you as a counselor. Also James has had his accoutrements fir like 5 years and he only plays era when he's on, you've spent more time on graal then him in 2 years
