    Who is it? What have you done in RL to show your appreciation for this game and community? I'm curious. Tattoos, stickers, clothes, cosplay. anything - show us!

    I have spent an inordinate and ridiculous amount of my real life time either playing Everquest or Forum quest for close to 18 years. In addition to what I would guess as around $3000 or so of my income to support this habit.

    When I got out of the Navy I took a year off from work to do nothing but play EQ. When I was in the navy when I took vacation I used it to play EQ.

    One of my fondest memories is in plane of fear learning the spawn cycles. The wife and I took a 4 day weekend and never left plane of fear staying awake practically the entire time waiting on golems to spawn for epic 1.0's.

    I used to love going to the fan fares and the SOE block parties.

    I met my wife playing this game and have been happily married for 11 years, and now have 3 kids. Sadly we haven't been able to convince them to play everquest consistantly yet, but I have faith they will.

    We did have to leave the game for a while thou do to real life, kids, etc. However; we are back now and we always missed it when we were gone.

    The reason I love everquest is the money that one can save. When I do other things I spend money like it is water. When I play everquest; I don't spend money on anything else.

    Am I EQ's biggest fan? No. Do I love EQ? Yes

    I don't have a tattoo, if I had anything it would be a family portrat of my wife and kids. I would not have them if it wasn't for this game.
    I_Love_My_Bandwidth and Tiggold like this.

    I think I'm well into the 5 digits on $ spent on EQ, I still have a bit of a chip on my shoulder re: not being able to participate in special events/LoN tournaments due to being a non US citizen.

    I'm already partway done construction on my child slave pi- er, happy fun time room, for my future progeny to play EQ in

    The fake Facebook account I made to play poker on my phone uses a pic of my halfling druid.

    My phone plays the skelly laugh when my RL friend that plays a necro calls me.

    Um. That's all I got.

    Does daybreak still have the old Firiona Vie costumes that where used at fan fairs and trade shows?
