Well, Planeshift is a hobby for most of us. It\'s something we do in our spare time for fun. As such it\'s hard to maintain a constant state of work. Some nights I do more some I\'m not online at all. Many of us have day jobs dealing with computers and comming home and putting several hours into PlaneShift is not always the easiest thing to do.
If I have fun spending hours over pretty complex programming stuff then I have no problem people having fun in a big chat room. It\'s all about expectations. Some have high, some have low, some have realistic.
