D\'oh! Of course! This isn\'t a Europeans guild...This is a Europians guild. Try googling \"Europian\" and you will see that the chief Export of this guild is women with male persuasions...

First off, humans still have instincts   , don\'t try to elevate humans just because we are sentient and intelligent.  Sentience kicks in, imho, a couple of years after birth.  

Im not sure about babies, maybe their cognition is indeed so undeveloped you could talk about instincts. But from baby on humans really dont have instincts. Humans are not just animals with culture.

Instinct means that the animal responds to the same situation always the same way like all the others do as well. Meaning it is preprogrammed.
With humans no universal consistent behavioral pattern has been found. Always there were to many exceptions. Instincts have become urges in us which is slightly different.

Second off, society was never a tool.  Humans are a social species.  You cut off the social aspect of humans, and you go nuts, basically.  

True, humans can\'t live without society or with huge problems to say the least. But you in theory can use society to your advantage and go against values and norms that exist. Of course i\'d not want anyone to do that but it is possible. And it means you have to overcome the guild feelings you\'ll have to face.

from wikipedia
Instinct is the word used to describe inherent dispositions towards particular actions. Instincts are generally an inherited pattern of responses or reactions to certain kinds of situations. In humans, they are most easily observed in responses to emotions. Instincts generally serve to set in motion mechanisms that evoke an organism to action. The particular actions performed may be influenced by learning, environments, and natural principles. Generally, instinct is not used to describe an existing condition or established state.
...
Some sociobiologists and ethologists have attempted to comprehend human and animal social behavior in terms of instincts. Psychoanalysts have stated that instinct refers to human motivational forces (such as sex and aggression). This use of the term has mainly been disregarded. The motivational forces among humans are now generally referred to as instinctual drives.

It depends of course what exact meaning you give to instinct. i consider it as a preprogrammed unhangeable response. Instinctual drives are btw what i called urges.

I btw base this on the course social psychology i had an exam for this morning. One of the first things they did was claiming humans don\'t have instincts but urges. Depends on definition i think .

RPing in a game 24/7 can become quite...dull.
I am mostly certain that I am not the only one who wishes to just kick back, relax and play without worrying about the consequences.
