2 weeks is hardly that bad. and maybe they needed a break? they'll be back soon enough no harm done.
Yes, I can just see the exit interview:
Turbine: You played 120 hours in the last week.....
Player: yeah, sounds about right
T: well... seriously is that healthy?... we mean do you think that is healty?
P: what are you saying?
T: It's just that your marriage, this cant be good for that, can it?
P: We are fine! she loves my dedication, tells everyone about it, in fact I heard her bragging about it to guy from her work on the phone the other night!
T: Fine, fine, calm down, leaving that alone, have you seen the sun this month? your looking very pale, almost dead even.
P: Ha! got you there, skin cancer is a real threat to those who get to much sun!
T: Listen, you know we care right?
P: you do?
T: of course we do! if something happened to you, who would pay for your subscription? and if hypothetically your wages were garnished by... well say a hypothetical family court order what would happen then?
P: Hey, I have it under control, just been working the new content, love those new raids!
T: No one loves the new raids, we didn't make them to be loved, this is a safe place you don't have to lie here, honor the truth.
P: Yeah.. well I love the thunderholm... and the Haunted Halls are good to.
T: yes we see you have been enjoying the Halls, how many times have you run it again?
P: must be at least 10 runs
T: hmm 10 you say?
P: Yeah, and I mean the real extended verison!
T: only 10?
P: uuuuuh maybe 12?
T: well it's just that you sold 23,000 black stones this week in the ASAH... seems like a lot to get in 10 runs.
P: Um, I was using a loot gem?
T: Ah! loot gem, fair enough
P: really?
T: Yes, yes that's fine, not really the problem.
P: It's not?
T: Oh no, we are happy to see a growing and vibrant ASAH, someone has to buy those shards somewhere don't they?
P: Uh yeah, yeah! that's right! just looking out for all of us, love those loot gems! buy em all the time!
T: But we are concerned about the 15,000 black stones you tried to sell on the AH.....
P: Oh hey! I'm sorry really I just ....
T: We know your sorry, but perhaps a little break might be illustrative, help you remember.
P: No!
T: spend time with the wife?
P: NO! please no!!
T: Do some work around the house?
P: God no! please I'm begging you! not that! I have allergies! listen I'm sorry I sold there!
T: Two weeks should do it!
