So, have you ever stopped playing ARM to return later?

Currently, I'm on a fairly long break from Arm, which has lasted since I began my first year of college near the end of August.  It was hard at first, and still is to some degree, but the workload I have is enough to keep me off the game.  So, I resign myself to just cruise the boards daily, skimming most of the more interesting posts.  That makes it easier living without Arm, at least for a little while.

I took off months here and there when travelling around the world for a year and would log on again when settling in a place for a while just to check in and catch up for a bit before moving on again. I've logged on to Arm from a wide variety of places from huts overlooking the sea in SE Asia to cafes at the base of Machu Picchu.

Travelling was good though to get a better feel for what it would be like living in IG locations... the salt flats anyone (if the sky was redder)?

Nice picture Boggis! Sounds like you'd had an interesting time!

I played for a  year and a half in 98-99.. went to college.. logged in sparsely from there, got killed off.. came back sometime mid-last year.. so.. I took a good.. 3 year break.  :wink:

Yes, I have.  I've been playing this game since 1992.  On 3 occasions I have stopped playing for a long time, then come back later.  Once for about 6 months, once for about a year, and once for about 1.5 years.

Took probably 3-4 6-18 month breaks over about 10 years... oh and a one month break just now for being overseas + 3 weeks so far on an overdue project...

Ya, I quit bigtime when I had a girlfriend. But when she dumped me, I came a crawlin' right back.  :twisted:

Damn Game Damn Game Damn Game!

I vowed to not come back...

it only lasted for 8 months...and 2 or 3 before the month I actually quit.

Now I've been playing for about a month...mleh, what can you say?

I've gone from the GDB for a week at a time, maybe a little longer away from the game itself.  Though at times it is a struggle to log on for a token 20 minutes here and there.
