How you guys find interest in your job?

In short, I'm one of those people who are a bit too proud of their class.

I first created my FP in 2005, and pretty much enjoyed playing the character all the way up to 200. FP back then was not too common, and I believe even today there are not that many FP mages around. It gave that sense of feeling that you were not on the bandwagon of Hermits / Priests before 4th job, and had a sense of uniqueness about it.
Competing with friends, and others on the rankings, played a huge part in leveling the character for me. Another part of it is that this is the character I enjoyed playing for hours upon hours experiencing every part of Maple with this char, as things became new and maple changed a bit here and there.

With new characters, you just don't experience Maple like it used to be, and that in turn has always pushed me back to playing my FP Mage.

Also like Maria, I am one of those people that have become just a bit too proud of my class, since I have played it for so long.
