Well, to start off, I like to quit the game, and THEN like just two days later set some unreasonable goal for myself to accomplish in-game. Nothing keeps me interested in the game more than going from apathy to masochism is less than a week.

Then, I like to drum up support for a community based service of some sort, say a guide on how to fish, claim to be "working" on it, promise that it will be completed and that I won't flake out THIS time, and then promptly do just that - don't deliver. Never gets old hahaha!

And on those really dark days, when I just can't seem to figure out why I should go on with this all, I like to post, for the 3000th time, asking what everybody else does to keep interested in some sort of an attempt to self-validate through the actions of others.

This isn't a complete list, but it's a few of my favorites. Hope it helps!
