[QUOTE="Kesh, post: 431269, member: 1308"] I saw this bit, along with my parents. While my grandparents worry that I spend too much time online, my parents saw this as an opportunity to point out to me that they had watched my usage closely as a teen. If they had thought it was becoming addictive, or harmful, they would've simply taken the computer away. As it was, their opion on this piece agreed with mine. The guy was already emotionally imbalanced, and was probably using EQ as a social outlet. He likely didn't commit suicide [i]because[/i] of EQ. Rather, he probably logged on one last time to visit with his friends before killing himself. Who knows what the actual trigger event was? That being said, I have little interest in EQ. However, I've been giving Shadowbane a passing glance. I doubt I'd have enough time to dedicate to it, though. More likely, I'll wait on Neverwinter Nights to come out for MacOS. :) [/QUOTE]
