The time I posted was basically full on GW. I don't sit and afk in-game. If I'm logged in then I'm doing something - whether it be doing a mission, quest, exploring, etc. I could easily enough afk for hours on end, but I see no point in that - I admit I do alt-tab out of the game now and again, but generlaly if I'm going to browse sites and such I'll log out.
But I do agree that looking at pure hours logged on doesn't lead to great comparison - because how many of those hours was just afk'ing while they went and didn't something else? Like for me, my hours aren't that high.. but thats because I don't afk in the game (apart from coffee and/or loo breaks... heh).
Maybe make a suggestion in the suggestions board to expand on the /age command? I doubt it'll be high on any priority list.. but if enough people show and interest or the idea is presented well enough, then maybe someday down the future it will get implemented. They have already expanded the /age command to show both complete hours played and hours played on that particular character...

*shrugs* Some might see it that way, some might see it as a fun way to share the amount of time they have spent logged into GW. But since I'm not a board Mod.. I couldn't say whether this thread is just pointless spam... but personsally I've been interested in seeing how many hours other people have been logged on..
Now just wish I could see how much time was spent doing different things (like doing missions, exploring, afk, etc)...

And yes, my request not to have it posted is just as valid as you posting. I can't stop you and nor can you stop me. It's merely a request to attempt to appeal to peoples sense of intelligence to 'raise the bar' of what actually is posted and discussed in these forums...versus the normal drivel you can see posted on TGH for example.

All I will say is - people view different things differently as you quite rightly appear to realize. Just because you view something as aweful drivel doesn't mean that other people view it as aweful drivel. Two sides to every coin.
I respect your view and I can understand where you are comming from, but on the same token I'd ask that you respect my view and understand where I am comming from as well. In the end, if these things are deemed drivel then I will respect that decision.
BTW, whats "TGH"? I guess I demonstrate some ignorance here, so please do forgive me and I hope you'll answer me on this
