If you have a baby crying, please put down the controller and care for the child! If you have quit your job to be able to stay home and play...you may have a problem. Shocked

oh my Shocked they quit their jobs to be able to play FFXI... I mean I love the game but love clean panties and having my meals prepared more! I guess it can be hard for some to find a balance between tending to Vandiel needs and RL needs... You and I have discussed how difficult it is to just "pop on the game" for a short time cause everything takes so much time... Have met some people who's children introduced them to the game and listening to them... it is almost like that is all they have in common with their children now...the game. Suspect

speaking of RL... I'm outta here Smile

If people are that sad to put the game above their child they are not worth to be blessed with a child while many people would love to have one which aren't able

I really think people who ignore their crying child because they are on a MMORPG should seek help.

He LEFT his wife in labor, to leave the hospital for a quick shower, and returned more than 3 hours later, after playing the game?

Thats just over the line. Evil or Very Mad

I have seen so many folks that sink themselves into the world, and its great because there are instant gratifications, and your young, strong, pretty, and admired. You are a savior of your village, and reccognized where ever you go. Everyone loves and respects you. You turn off the machine, and turn around to see a house full of garbage, crying children, a spouse who is ticked off, and nothing to show for yourself, but a bill every month.

I hope more shut off their machines in favor of their families. There are too many children being raised by electronic baby sitters as it is.
