Yet another rant on fatigue.

Just hit 20 today and immediately got the exhausted message. I've been playing games for 20 years, online games for 10+ years. I've probably logged more hours into gaming than some of the people here have spent living. I've yet to come across such a moronic game concept than "Fatigue". This is the first game I've ever played that actually punished those that played and lets face it fatigue is punishment. You play more than 4 hours and you're punished for it, play more than 6 and your really screwed. Now I understand some of the reasons why they implemented it. But I think you find other ways to achieve your goals. I think you will find the majority of people are very disappointed when they learn about fatigue. And when I explained it to one person their only reply was "That's really gay". That pretty much sums up what I think about fatigue as well. If you want to slow down leveling decrease xp gains, if you want more people warring, make it worthwhile to go to war. But please for the love of this game remove fatigue. It's a horrible concept.
