I usually grind because I have a goal. I play a lot but I actually only grind about 2 hours a day. Other than that, I'm questing, helping someone, hunting for GGK, or just chilling in town.

I don't mean grinding in general, I mean people who sit there all of their time to grind, lol

A full time grinder probably has no full-time job, spouse, kids, etc plus games are fun. Instead of skiing or working on cars, maybe their hobby is video games?

I don't know how people can do it to be honest. I tried to straight grind for a couple hours over the weekend, but I just get so bored I can't stand it. It's one thing for me to play for hours while working on quests and/or in KQs, because even if I'm not cranking out the levels at maximum speed I still get some feeling of accomplishment.

I imagine once the quests dry up you kind of have to just grind out the levels if you want them, though. That's probably why I never make it to the big time in mmos I think. Just planting myself in a spot and killing the same things over and over forever isn't for me.

I think a lot of people just get kind of obsessed with gaining those levels. I love to level too, but when it gets to where it takes days of effort just for a couple ticks on the xp bar it starts feeling more like work than fun to me. That's about when a game usually becomes more of an interactive, animated chatroom than an actual game for me.

I agree, goofing off in game > levels XD

I stand around more than level.

Offtopic: Are those monster title things stuck at Goblin Mage?

I noticed just now it never changed.

Hmm you're right. My (default) title is actually Goblin Mage too. Maybe the admin hasn't go the settings for the rest of the mobs yet.

Back on topic,

I just think it becomes a real problem when people think that gaining all those levels > everything else. -nudgesomie- If they enjoy grinding, good for them, but don't build up your ego just because the number on the top left corner went up by 1. G___G"

*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.
