I am employed fulltime and normally work around 50 hours a week now that im back to fulltime. (work got slow there for a bit) I enjoy playing GW whenever i can. My boss is even cool enough that while having a little downtime between projects i get to play gw at work. Since my GF is home from college while finishing her nursing degree, the summertime is kind of hectic bouncing between work and spending time with her, then trying to find time to run a pvp guild... kinda crazy.

Btw, didn’t know there are so much *older* players around. Or is it that the older players are more active on forums?

I think the main reason why there's so many of us over 30's around is that we were the first generation to really get our grubby paws on mass produced video games. We've been at it since the '70's and we're not going to stop now.
Either that or the lady folk needed a rest and just bundled us off into the 'computer room'! Out of sight out of mind and all that.

Usually work about 50+ hours a week and that leaves little time for GW during the week. Get home, shower, then realize damn, I'm totally wiped out! Spending 10 hours a day in a rolling brown oven is not easy. Exhaustion and my girlfriend keep me from playing most nights, only really have time to browse the forums. Weekends, though, I usually get in a couple of hours of play time in the early mornings, usually 7 to 11 a.m. then it's time to do errands and socialize and indulge in my summertime pleasures, mainly fishing and golf - you know, any activity that involves beer!

Been Employed and Working Since: August 2005
Started playing guild wars when my friend got me hooked on it last summer. I unfortunately started my full time job right before I got the game. Working retail full time sucks because of the goofy hours; I usually have Tuesdays and Wednesdays off and there's no one else online when I have time to do stuff. I'm usually at work until at least 10pm Friday and Saturday nights. The other downside is that I have to deal with people all day and be nice and helpful even if they're being total jerks to me, because I want to make a good impression for my company and I want them to buy stuff from me so I make more money. By the time I get home, I have absolutely no patience for any of the normal shenanigans that go on in game. Thankfully, I put in my two weeks notice yesterday so I can go back to school in the fall. I'm a physics major though and am going to take a really heavy courseload my first quarter, so I might not actually have any more time to play than I do now. :-P

Some people think models are airheads but when I tell them I play online computer games in my spare time I know they think I'm more intelligent. That's why I love GW *heart*. I normally play at night, occasionally between photo shoots. Sometimes I even play in my lingerie.

Time Zone: GMT
Employed: Miraculously yes
Standard Working Hours: in theory... 9:00-5:30 I've not had to do crazy overtime for a while, which is nice. They give me dinner if I do, so I don't complain
Standard Working Days: Mon - Fri
Occupation: Video Game Designer. I've been in the industry for just over 6 1/2 years at the same company.
/age says I've played GW for 15 months!. I mainly played a necromancer, and she got over a year old and I maxed a few titles and things on her too. I also played a ranger and mesmer a lot. I played a warrior and monk for a bit, but I mainly stuck to those first three Eventually I deleted everything to quit, but that only lasted a month.
I came back to play a ritualist. If I hadn't deleted, I probably would have never started a Canthan character at all... it's hard to get over the investment I put into the Tyrians - skills, armour, quests etc, which meant that I kept playing them instead of starting a Factions character. I think the only things that I miss from my old characters are the 100% Cartographer title, various 15k armours and rare weapons, the birthday present I got for my necromancer and the miniature Kuunavang that I got with the collector's edition... y'know, the sentimental things
Luckily I still have a few things that I can't lose like Divine Aura and Pre-order weapons! I'm having a lot of fun now with my ritualist, and I've re-rolled my Tyrian ranger too. I think my next goal is 15k Canthan for my ritualist... and then I have a few other things planned too, so there's still a lot of fun for me to have yet

My husband and I both actively play GW since a week or so after its release. I told my son he couldnt be born until after the Factions BWE because I wanted to play. *L* He was nice and waited until April 01. Our daughter was running around like an Avicara for a while when she was 1.5 yo.... I think we might play too much since I describe it like that. :-)

Playing Time: Weekdays 2-3hr, Weekends vary. Either I hang out with friends or I'll be playing 24/7 (TheDeep-addict )
Started playing since the Beta (/age is 15months). Favorites are the Mesmer and Ritualist. I don't mind monking too but I hate getting yelled that. If you ever yelled at a monk that instantly stopped healing you (and even stopped casting HealParty), changes are big it was me.
