If you didn't make it out to the latest SOE Fan Faire in Atlanta, I feel sorry for you. Why? Because it's the most fun I've had in a long time. Fan Faires are a unique entity in the gaming world. I've been to other gaming events, conventions, gatherings, etc. But none of them are quite the same as a Fan Faire.

At Fan Faire, everyone is your friend. You can hop into an elevator, see someone else with a Fan Faire badge on, and talk to them as if you've known them all your life. You can sit down at a table of perfect strangers and they'll welcome you because you play EverQuest II, not necessarily in the same guild or even the same server, but there's a bond between us that transcends cliques.
