Quit and wait for Dragons Nest. That's what I'm doing.
You sound like my old guild leader DX. I miss her terribly so i'm going to play DN just to chill with her lol.
I drive myself completely insane starting new characters in hopes of gaining back my teenage glory days in some weird way.
My fail is insane sometimes...
Honestly if I still had contact with my German relatives i'd have moved to EU Mabi and said to hell with NA's shame. People quitting or going on hiatus left and right doesn't surprise me in the least bit.
