Math is nerdtopia. Physics is considered nerdy because it uses a lot of heavy math. Think about this for a second: what is nerdier Physics or Psychology? Which subject requires heavier math? I rest my case.

I just went back to FFXI after leaving in Fall 06. I'm having a lot of fun with it, and they've added several features to make it more friendly to casual players.

I found a group that plays sometimes on the weekends, but it's just not the same. I think 4th edition is fun, but it seems to have even more focus on combat and less on role-playing than earlier editions.

I got my addiction out of the way with the original Everquest ... "only" took 2 years. I do play WoW, but only casually. I still haven't hit L80 yet.

Lol, nah if i'm going to get back to FFXI, i'll wait for FFXIV to come out. I just saw a trailer of it and it looks sweet. Plus i still had nightmares on the first time i was trying to install the game.

Jesus Christ, when is that series going to end?

Lol so true. I played WoW for a little bit, and realized the main thing they did to make it popular is to remove as much of the frustrating stuff from MMO's as possible. With FFXI there is a ton of stuff that I really like, but over the years I've experienced a ton of stuff that was really frustrating too. I mean there are some aspects of FFXI that no other MMO even comes close to touching (like storyline for example), but you have to put up with a lot of crap to enjoy the good stuff.

Here's hoping that with FFXIV they kept all of their standout qualities while removing all of the frustrating crap that people had to deal with in FFXI.
