That’s better than me some days when I was in my twenties and early thirties.
Wake up with the gotta get to work and get that money energy. Pull up to the parking lot like, “OK I came can I go home now?” Before the key was out of the ignition.

Finally did something for myself on Friday.
Had 17 days worth of vacation time left for the year, decided to take my mother's bday off and the 2 weeks at the end of December.
Will be a good time.
Made plans to actually do something on my bday for once.
Only sad part is because GF is on winter break I won't be able to spend much if any time with her since her parents still don't know about me and it'd be suspicious. ;.;
Okay enough about me, how is everyone else this fine day?

everyone I know... too invested in their game schedule
/sits down for long talk
they are probably feeling you out a little on this one son...
as you can imagine, there are a lot of returners coming and going staying a little while, getting bored and quitting again. all of them need a substantial amount of help and often times the return on those investments aren't real great...
so not everyone is real eager to drop whatever it is they are doing to help someone who is only going to be on a little while before quitting again....especially if they want to get carried.
which, I'm not saying YOU do... just in general...
we have a special offer going for a limited time called "just enough rope to hang yourself with" where we help you out a little bit but you are pretty much on your own... you can do the stuff we're doing... or you can solo. what are we doing? nobody knows, when are we doing it? pretty much whenever we feel like it.
and maybe it's because we're all still back a few pages from the rest of the class that we don't mind helping.... idk
and from the sounds of it you're already ahead of us on the curve... so if you want to get in with the top guys doing the hard tier stuff you will have to prove to them you have what it takes already...
which I know can be a bit of a kick in the nuts sometimes... a little ego bruising is good for you now and then when you get to big for your britches...
if you want to clown around with a bunch of clowns that don't know what the hell they are doing, forget what little they learn but also require very little to nothing in return for helping...

OK, now you know what you're getting into for sure Zero.

The Return to Job Point Mountain
aka "dude, where are your stars"

but I'm old and what the hell else do I have to do?... I play this game because I hate television commercials and run out of things to watch on netflix...so I'm all /swings great axe I'VE BEEN WORKING ON THE RAILROAD!!! ALL THE LIVE~LONG DAY!!!
I watched rua's geo video and he is all "it takes seven months to get the golden shovel"....and I'm all...yeah but I'm an idiot so it will take me at least twice as long... /gets to work on it

How bad is the CP grind?

How bad is the CP grind?
On my Geo that was 1890 when I returned, was able to get 300 points in under 2hrs. But this because I have 50% cape, ROV KIs and Job Gifts that increase my CP gain for job points. This was in a party. Basically a job point every 2 mobs.
On Rune with 245 points, soloing it’s much much much more Grindy.
I can keep my capacity chain up barring a NM pop in Escha-Reisenjima but that’s like 6k a mob which is like a job point every 5, 2 when Trizek is active. My Rune kills fast when AM3 is up but getting AM3 and keep it consistent is the slow/hard part.

Hmm, That sounds painful. On top of having to build Kenkonken...

Mmm I've balanced well enough lately.
I like focusing on RL as much as I have, it's a breath of fresh air knowing I'm no longer using games as an escape.
