When I learned that I really loved RPGs in all that they do, I kept an eye out for their aspects in game magazines. One day I saw a full page ad for Everquest. My adolescent mind exploded. I was desperate to try it out. Except I needed my moms permission to get a subscription. She said no. Crushing disappointment followed.
