The only time I would grind is when I see new weapon/equipment set right around the corner. Then I'll actually sit for awhile just bashing monsters. Now with my cleric at level 40 I just can't get myself to doing anything.

Now I've started on an Archer at level 25 who only does KQs which doesn't give out the most experience maybe but is a whole lot more fun than grinding my butt off. Plus, I've started being recognized by some people for KQing all the time...

*cough* South Park. =D

I'm not really at the level of true grinding yet. 40, FTW!
I'll get eventually, just hopefully I wont become as obsessed as some. I just want to be at the level of having no life that most Korean players have. ^.^

Its fricking insane. There are so many level 80's that it isn't funny.

Well I grind cos I wanna play with my friends. They're always running ahead because I only get my modem at night. So I try to grind as much. As for 24/7... It's doable. Definitely. If you are really into playing the game, you don't need to eat or drink. Just go to the toilet a lot. Well that's my experience of playing 18 hours a day during the holidays.

Well, from what I know from my friends (They are the ones you are asking about), its just competition with other players. Its that need to be the best out of the people you know, plus, they have absolutely no lives. All their friends are in the game or online 90% of the time, they have no significant others, and they have nothing but free time. I've tended to grind for a day or so but the only thing keeping me sane from it was that I was talking to my friends on the phone or AIM or be at their house.

I think if i tried to grind solo for over half an hour i would kill myself if i had no1 to talk with...
Thats just me but id rather play with some people and chill than solo just to gain lvls, thats why i play a massivly multiplayer game and not a solo rpg.

Yea I'd probably die too unless I'm sleepy where I'll just grind until I fall asleep infront of my computer.

Yeah, grinding alone can be one of the most mind numbing activities I have ever participated in. Two hours of solo grinding with absolutely no contact with other people is the mental equivalent of Solitary Confinement.

Well during grinding just find another person to talk to.. hopefully they're not a bot or they don't speak english. If you can't find someone, you can always try chatting in shout or just talk to your guild.

I dont have a guild and i dont really shout...
if im training alone, which is rare, i usually just whisper a friend.
Thats works pretty well but after about an hour of that i get bored xD

When you say 'grind' do u mean train? lols, I'm sorry, I am new to this word XD.

I don't play games often, but when I do it's with my friend's or when I want to level maybe 1? or 2?

Sorry my english is not good that much. x-x'
