I've been playing for a long time as well, since '99 I believe. I get burnt out on the game every now and then so I take a hiatus (sometimes years) but then I get pulled back in somehow, and then we're back to square one.
I never did quit Earth:2025. I was laid off when the company folded. That damned Mehul had himself a golden parachute, but what did I get? Not even a crummy severance package, much less my hard-earned pension.
Though he invested his money in a new game; free trade coffee.
Not posting on AT as much because Maki/Steeps gave back some of my forums on GHQ. RIP my decade long blog, my blog even had replies from people who are no longer with us :(.
