    3 years kinda.

    I've been around since beta but spent about five or six months not logging in on a break, I was subbed the whole time so I don't know what counts.

    Beta tested. Bought on release. Took nearly a year break when I hit vr3 or so. Didn't like the crag grind that was end-game.

    came back when they had traders and cool stuff. Still hit vr14 or whatever was max back then.

    like many, since beta - been subbed the whole time too. ESO isn't the greatest MMO ever made, but it is the closest of any MMO to something I have personally and specifically wanted for a long, long time, so overall I'm loving it.

    Not sure what my answer should be. Played beta, 4 months at launch (included month and 3 month sub), then stopped playing until TU since there was no new content and I wasn't going to pay to repeat old content.

    Regarding harder difficulty at launch, the survivability of my DK Imperial Tank was predicated on bashing mobs as my DPS was garbage. I remember when that first shields nerf was rolled out and I started dying a lot. My first exposure to the chaos that is MMO rebalancing.

    1+ year consistently.

    Though I had played beta and enjoyed it, but at the time thought that the game was not worth the monthly subscription. After it went buy2play, I bought it and gave it another shot and realized it went a long way since beta and actually turned out from an enjoyable game to a pretty awesome one.

    I am not ESO+ though and never plan to be for various reasons. I did buy most of the DLCs (missing SotH) and will buy Morrowind in the future. I also have every intention of buying the future chapters/DLC as long as the game has optional subscription.

    Yeah, I requested to have my beta tag removed way back when. Kinda regret it sometimes.

    See I am also new here (3-4 mos).
    While leveling through the zones most of the players I saw did not have any CP notation on their nameplates which mean they are also new like us...

    Also just curious how the heck you got 4 50s...power leveled via dolmens ???

    I feel some people might be a little afraid to vote. Looking at the stats, only 1 person so far has said they are 0 to 3 months, and even only 9 in the 1 to 2 year bracket, by far the most is in above 3 years. I understand the people who have been here for 3 years are proud of that, but for the people who are newer players, don't be afraid to vote! :) I feel that people are worried they might get talked down to or not taken seriously just because they haven't been here that long. I'm just certain that there must be more newer players on the forums than this lol.

    3 weeks and not afraid to say it, why would I? I'm having a blast so far, playing PVE solo. I used to play Guild Wars, and GW2. Have joined a few guilds in those games along the way and did not really enjoy it, I seemed to run into all the turds. ESO people seem nicer, less "hey look at me, I'm better than you, noob". I think ESO is a better game, a lot of similarities, but better.
    @MudcrabSammich Well I'm glad you are enjoying it :) And glad you voted too, hope more new players do that! The poll is still mostly 3 year plus votes.
    I tried GW2 before I got ESO, but as a first mmo I just couldn't get into it. Whereas with this game it clicked straight away, and that's why I've been playing it for nearly 2 years now :)

    I left ESO for a couple of months just before they dropped the Sub-only model and released "Tamriel Unlimited". Really good timing from my side since I missed out on that Senche mount.
    After this short hiatus to play GW2 with a couple of friends I came back and haven't left since. And now that my wife joined me in playing ESO in November 2016....i can't imagine to play something else.
