Do I really need to be leet?
TL;DR
but I will be quoting this:

I just have to wonder why it is that I personally have to fight, to save the world, cant someone else do it? And why can't we decide the worlds not worth saving, to side with whatever master of darkness is currently doomed to fall at the hands of the "heroes". Evil never wins, because winners are always just, not because evil always loses. Just because I live in a fantasy world full of dangers, do I have to be someone special, can't I just be some guy who did what he felt like. Even if I had the skills, weapons or could simply smash those werewolves to death with my fists, does it really fall to me...am I an individual, a person, or am I a train...? Do you think the same?
I would like to make it clear that antihero is supposed to mean opposition, as in opposed to the hero. Slight wording mistake on my part. This thread simply wants to know how people would like to play. Your vote in no way says you only wish to play a single role, it's just the path you most enjoy. All of the above was not an answer for the sake of defining more specific interests, not because it's not a valid way to enjoy virtual life. Ask as many questions as you wish.
What self chosen path would you find most enjoyable, had you had the choice?
(o) Epic hero like everyone else, Save the world, combat level max
(o) Epic anti hero like many other, doom the world, combat level max
(o) One of many, soldier in an army, do your duties justly
(o) Maker, creator, builder of things, trade with others, refine your art
(o) Adventurer, explorer, just run about the place, maybe be a bard.
(o) Scholar, learner, knowledge is your power
(o) Simply chatter to all others, meet your friends and such.
(o) Not so mighty, just so so, but your skills are your own
(o) Villager, with a home, maybe even someone to share it as children grow
(o) I earned my place, among the masses, I am truly singular through my own effort and skill, unique title/position
