I spend -maybe- an hour a day bashing. MAYBE. The rest of my time is spent helping newbs, dodging orientations, and sitting in one spot pissing certain people off.

Hey, Judas? I play casually and I've transed a skill. If you know what you're doing and how to quest, and where all the good quests are, it's not hard to make 10-20 credits a year playing casually.
Of course it will, AcidSeahorse. Remember, these games require an intelligence level above that of your average highschooler. Great gods above, how the educational system has failed.
It's Meatwad backwards. Meatwad- Dawtaem. Doesn't fly. No copyrighted names. If you come up with a stupid name, expect to be asked to change it. Rootattack, Idontknowyou, Rockypowered... those don't fly. Tynil, Wyd, Celeris, Amunet, these do. Those're also taken, so don't try them. So's Andvili, for the record, it's mine. Keep this in mind when you're thinking about your character name.
Hey, all those level 1s coming from other places are coming -here- to play -this Flash client-. To check it out, you know, and see how it compares to the Nexus client. Don't be silly and think they're bots.
In the two years I've been playing Achaea, I've seen two Gods born, three or four return from dormancy, been a pretty big help in a lot of fights, fought in a war, got kicked out of a Divine Order, changed class, changed cities, had kids, had -grandkids-.... this game is really immersive. I can't wait to see what happens to me as my current, newer character.
You don't have to spend a RL cent to get the full content of these games, actually. If you want to take the easy road and get artefacts and credits for lessons, sure, you can empty your credit card. Many people have done just that without spending an RL cent, though... keep that in mind.
Try entering HELP 1. Or HELP 2. Or HELP 3. Don't expect everything to be served to you on a silver platter, you've got ask around and you've got to work for some things, just like you do in real life.
Once again, you can get titled in the game by a House/Guild/City leader so that you have a surname. All abilities in the game are targeted to your character's first name. Pick an appropriate first name, and you'll have no issues. Names like Legionlegion, Stupidhead, Rootattack, Darkqueen.... they don't work. Yes, people tried those. Names like Goryllin, Metzger, Silas, Rho, Murg, Delphinus, Estach... those work. Those names happen to be taken, so don't try them. Also, in Achaea, you can join an established bloodline like the Lighthawks, Alexandrians, or Aristata (to name a few) or you can start your own by asking someone to suffix you with your own surname.
Keep in mind, if you have trouble, drop IronRealms a note and go to the main site of the game you want to play. They're not going to know about any problems with the various things unless you tell them.
