so....wait....EVE online would be something that you would want to practice for years and years, to be a master at?
but only if you had another life?
wow.
Yeah, that's the point. There is an incredibly depth to just about any mmo, that I would have a bawl with if I had copious amounts of spare time. I don't, so I'm not going to.

You pretentious wanker.
"My imagined possibilities of achievement are so monumental they borderline on the absurd"?
What are you even doing with your life now? Unless you're at Harvard/Yale on a genius scholarship, I think you should tone down your grandiose imagination a little bit.
Charles I'm largely fucking with you. It's a two way street. Calm.

I'm glad
Unless you were a serious James Joyce I would be seriously disapproving of the way you voice your aspirations.
I mean come on, I know my bf2s persona is one of absolute utter contrived condescension and elitism, but modesty is highly-valued real-life trait. Contrary to popular belief I do not act the way I do in real-life as I do on these Forums, and I have a solid work ethic and determination to do well that has got me this far... and "the only limit to my genius is the sky"-sorta statements are kinda sickening.
Not so much that there are no limits to my genius, but at least aspiring to anything lesser is boring. They are aspirations after all, good to aim high.
But as I'm sure you know acting as God's gift to man is enjoyable every once in a while (or often) even if it does get you an e-punch to the face.

I agree. Too bad no one on this thread has an extremely successful business, or a nice suburban family. Possibly Kmarion, but I don't think he is a millionaire. (could be wrong)
What's that got to do with anything? so now money is success?....well son, you don't know me (seeing as you like to use that phrase), I do have a successful business and I am millionaire, only just, but I am, and I've worked damned hard for it....I've never proclaimed that on these forums until now, but I'm telling you now, just so you know...you don't know me.
And the suburban family will be here in a few years, right now I'm only engaged, or is that not good enough for you?
Having a "personality" or character on the internet is something I never did when I was younger, nor did I play PC games or any of that shit, so Im doing it now for like 1 hour a day, so the people who say "wow posting on the internet, great life you live" are so full of shit.
I use the word younger lightly, I'm 24.
I very specifically used the phrase everyone on this thread (assuming up to that point) because I knew the general background of everyone, enough to know my phrasing was appropriate. I know there are you (very specifically, I have heard you talk about this before) and others that could be considered quite successful by those terms.

Right, because you dicks have never met me. You wouldn't want me baring my soul to strangers now would you? I would be quite the slut tbh.
