I believe the argument was that those who spend 99% of their free time in-game tend to take every little thing too seriously. Dare I suggest you proved his point?

He said there was a risk of it...and for them taking things too personally, or to an extreme.

So, either;

you just proved the article right.

Or this is a fake post, just trying to prove the article right.

I'm sorry, I never post here, but that was way too ironic. hahaha

I spend 90% of my free time in wow. Since our guild has been around for nearly 10 years and have now branched out to all sorts of games I am busy that entire 90%. However, your statement is true when you say that there may be a hard time letting the small things go. I too find myself making mountains out of ant mounds and sometimes I just need to relax and look at things from another perspective.

So for those that do spend 90% of their time in one game trying to manage all things "your guild name here" I do suggest taking a break now and then. Even if it's just a week or two a year. Force that vacation and enjoy other things around you. It will help the stress levels in game a little.

Even if leading a guild is a labor of love, as it is for me, you need a vacation.
