OK OK, I was playing "casually" for a bulk of the time. New
business..personal BS...blah blah blah. But generally I was working on
Fletching and exploring as many places as I could. But consider this.
After all of that time exploring and learning about the game I became able
to start a new character and level him to 26 in about two weeks of playing.
Not bad me thinks. Playing casually makes it hard to gain levels. Spend
too much time travelling and looking for groups etc.

Playing full time now though! YAY!
