why not?

Why not make a company that can create replacement panels for various automobiles out of recycled (and recycleable again) plastics? In Minnesota (and probably coastal states too) there's a lot of salt-induced rust that could be solved by plastic. Even if the color was not an exact match, it'd still look and perform better than rusted out holes.  Or does somebody already do this?

As for #4, you can have my subscription. I'm getting so sick of all the (guild) drama in that game, its making me not want to play.

I was lucky and accidentally (I ran past the guild leader while I was soloing in Nek Forest) found a queer guild on Antonia Bayle, a roleplay server. It's an extremely small guild, too small to even have regular groups play together. So it's mostly a solo guild, which I happen to like, with occasional chat discussions. No raid fever for me, thanks.

I'm looking forward to doing more exploring and crafting.
Larell (Ratonga), my necro questaholic adventurer with the nearly-decorated mansion
Lakell (Kerra), my carpenter who burns up all of Larell's harvesting resources
Latell (Troll), my byoooteeful redheaded tank
Can you figure out my naming convention? *laugh*

The naming of all my toons tends to derive from Finnish mythology

Kauko (my lvl 80 conjurer)
Kivutar (lvl 74 fury)
Jouko (lvl 28 Coercer that I may betray to an illusionist)
Tuoni (lvl 29 Shadowknight)

those are my main ones, i have others that I just made out of boredom that I don't really play. But I'm making an effort right now to not play at all as I'm trying to get my real life back in order and i tend to become way too engrossed in EQ2 and all the guild drama has worn me down. I started pulling toons from this guild a few months ago and I finally took them all out last night. This one guild leader viewed the guild as his and he can do whatever he wants no matter who he has to offend to do it. He's been getting worse and worse (and a few of the other guild leaders are more or less on his side). So, basically last night the finally forced him to leave the guild, which I was happy about, and then an hour later the leaders let hiim back in, made him a leader again and acted liek nothing happened. Well, that was it for me, and I left. Now I'm in another more stable guild, but i still paln on taking an extended break from any eq2 and focus on some sorely neglected parts of my life.

Yikes. Yes, a game is supposed to be fun and relaxing. If it's not doing that, then it's definitely time to take a break. :)
