Aggro Me Doesn’t Freak Out

A reblog of Aggro Me’s interview of Gaige, one of FoH’s new school raiders in EQ2. I give the target subject props for being forthright about his weekly raid time (“I routinely play anywhere from 40 to 80 hours a week.”), and props to Aggro for remaining the consummate nice guy and not freaking out.
