How long playing TFC: maybe a few months?
Why HC? Because I actually like not having teleports. TPs, IMO, make TFC too easy. Die 10k from home? Oh well, I just set a home point before I started exploring! I prefer a game without easy tp commands. Sure a rail network mitigates this somewhat, but this has an in-game cost. Getting to more remote sections of the world actually requires effort.
Rules:

Rule #1: Respect the staff and other players.
Rule #6: Use of the "L" word is forbidden.

(Since apparently, rule #6 doesn't count for applications.)
