I met my old Clan leader tonight...

And he was saying goodbye to the game. ( Fallen Earth )
It was an interesting discussion. I did not try to talk him out of it. After all, he probably knows as much about the game as the people who made it at least. There wasn't really anything new to keep him playing. He is European and I am North American. And yet we talked like old friends who lived across the street. ( thanks to his excellent english! ) So it was sad. And I would still love to play games with this guy, but of course, he is far better skilled than I am at this.
Not sure why I posted this except that it leaves me with an empty feeling. Good times to remember but I wish we could go back.
Anyway, I might try to catch up to him in PS2.
Longevity?
Nothing last forever. Post a story of people you miss in games, and what happened, if you like.
Its really people, that make MMO's IMO.

Its inevitable IMO, as I am sure we have all experienced this, if you have played these games for any length of time.
I think at this point, if you play MMO's, you have to be prepared for the highs and the lows. If you expect all highs you are naive. Enjoy them while you can.

We gamed together from that day forward all the way up until I quit World of Warcraft back in 2012. Though I've never met a single one of them in real life, we've talked and legitimately grown up with one another online. From Ventrilo to Teamspeak to Curse chat we still talk on a regular basis. We went from nerdy kids in middle/high school all the way to college and now as grown adults with families and jobs. It's a pretty amazing thing to consider and it made my time playing that game worth it.
As it is, though I don't much care for ESO, I still play every week during pvp night because I like my guild, who I've been with since GW2. It's the best guild I've been in and I want to stay a part of it.
Otherwise, I solo in a lot of games and do pugs, which is kind of sad, because it's hard to find a good guild in the off hours when I play on NA servers.
I have played and met some wonderful people in my years playing. Mostly through Wow and GW.
One guy I miss just left when I was on hiatus from wow. I am now the GM of our guild and I keep his toons in the roster hoping. Every so often I look at the recent log in time and well its at 3 years + and counting. I keep hoping I'll see _ hrs ago but alas I never do. Its moments like that when I actually feel sad about what things used to be like.
