I was referring to random posts that popped up in the past that I certainly remember, just that I don´t have enough evidence to spot who that lurker is.

>An interesting point that one often forgets in such escapism.
exactly. I mean, it´s cool and all that one wants to become a Roman soldier/general or live the golden times of an Empire/Kinddom. For video games and studying history, okay that´s pretty neat.

However, we don´t value the quality of life in comparison with those periods from the past. You´ve got nothing to envy when it comes to life expectancy and the tools/mediums/technologies from back then.

I have no desire to go back to it because I am living in an age in which the standard life expectancy draws near 80 years. Not even those who lived in the kingship could last this much centuries ago.

Even with that disorder,when looks at the past, reaching 70 years was a huge feat back then and now, it falls a little bit short for the current standards.

So, do I have any reason to go back? Honestly, I don´t. Yes, things are looking pretty grim and we might be fed of this year but... people were dying out of hunger until not long ago (and we might witness in this century, the disappearance of this problem or at least, get greatly reduced in the entire world).

So, no thanks. I will stick to what I currently have and except for living just 24 in those periods just to see the environments for myself, I wouldn´t use the time machine for nothing really except for the postmodern decades.
