I'm trying to understand your point but am having some difficulties.
You claim that pointing an item at a creature and repetitively clicking for hours on end (with the occasional healing/revival visit) is not your idea of fun? In that case what could you possibly spend your deposits on other than buying clothing/accessories?
Or do you claim that grinding just for the monetary value isn't your thing? In which case what is the advantage of EU compared to other MMOs?
As a minor aside, you may want to look at my old thread where I tracked my performance over time
here. I started out by sweating then moved on to hunting/mining as described. Once I figured out the basics of EU the main fun-factor for me was to see how far I could go (and it seems I made more than $100 a year while at it). I still sweat from time to time even though I haven't bothered selling for nearly 3 years now
