    Why do you talk that way?

    I will respond to this despite your lack of formal framing when addressing a member of Royalty. (Just a note next time it should read more like.. "Sire, I Waldoe of Interwebs, doth humbly ask, why do you talk that way? Oh just and kind Ruler of the Realm.") 

    But to your question; what do you mean? I type as clearly and concisely as is required for proper syntax of the King's English. If you have found something off about my structure or subject then I beg a humble request that you cite such anomalies specific to your questioning.

    Back on topic,

    Aside from 'balance' I could go another day living without hearing someone utter "I'm just sayin'." Of course you are sayin', you're speaking or typing and it should be your own words unless quoting someone for a specific cause.

    Such useless whittling of one's most precious time.

    /bow

    He is mad, my fair King. Pay him no heed.  Regarding matters at hand, I, Sir Fungus IV, would agree whole-heartedly against the phrase, "I'm just sayin'." Most useless indeed! Quite.

    How about all of them? xD

    Annoys me so much when people act underground on mmos around certain people. We all know none of them will ever truly die though, another equally annoying one will come along to replace it. We can always hope though. D;

    Dynamic
    Innovative
    Persistant
    Meaningful

    All these terms are used as marketing gimmicks. Yet still so many lemmings on these boards throw these around while championing their shiny new bandwagon mmo. It never ends, every year its the same bs.

  • MardyMardy Member Posts: 2,213

    u mad bro & cool story bro top my personal list.

     

    And yes someone was probably going to answer my post by saying "u mad bro?".  Sorry, beat you to it.  image

    this. balance is g...um stupid


    edit and while im here might as well add

    "imba"
    "imbalanced"
    "overpowered"
    "OP'ed"

    classes need not be balanced for 1 vs 1 in every versus pairing

    Guild Wars 2 is my religion

    I have a personal gripe with the following:

    L2P.  Especially when morons use it out of context simply because it's the "cool" thing to say.  It's become the "your mom" response of the 90's.

    lol u mad? -  I hate this one too...

    tard: lol you mad?

    Me:  Furious!

    Fail - It always gets the twitch going when idiots use this with poor grammar.  I don't mind if someone calls something a failure but I hate it when someone goes and says "this thing is fail".  DIE IN A FIRE!

    As for when it comes to real life, I'm in favor of not bringing these terms to regular speach.  A lot of these things were invented as short form for text to express some kind of emotion.

    I hate hate hate when people say "lol" instead of laughing.  Obviously you didn't think it was funny enough to laugh, let alone chuckle so shut the fuck up!  Either you're laughing or you're not.

    No required quests! And if I decide I want to be an assassin-cartographer-dancer-pastry chef who lives only to stalk and kill interior decorators, then that's who I want to be, even if it takes me four years to max all the skills and everyone else thinks I'm freaking nuts. -Madimorga-

    I think the following words are quite overused:

    Epic

    Rape

    Pwned

    Fail- This can be any form of Fail. ex: failboat, fail dps, fail[insert common word]

    Agreed.

    I'll add appending the word "fest" to another word (i.e. gankfest, zergfest, etc).

    This isn't a MMO term but every article, post or blog I read has this stupid segue: "With that being said" or "that said". It is being way over used. If I hear a speach with that segue in it, I instantly tune out now. It is driving me nuts!

    What i have found in most sandboxes are discarded toys and cat poop.

    umad and QQ both get on my nerves for all the wrong reasons.

  • vonoddzvonoddz Member UncommonPosts: 18

    Sandbox needs to go away.

  • AdokaumAdokaum Member UncommonPosts: 84

    Epic

    Fail

    Epic Fail

     

    Please, die as soon as possible along with the people who use them. Hearing some little kids out on the street or some sluts using Epic or Fail to describe something makes me wanna break stuff with my face.

    These types of people are usually gamer haters and anything PC related yet still use our jargon, would they still use it if they knew that they sound like forum nerds?

  • DnomsedDnomsed Member UncommonPosts: 261

    RPD FGT!

     

    This has got to go.  I see it in game, I see it on forums.  Everyones using it thinking they're clever and its just retarded.

    Warhammer fanatic since '85.

    I feel that the word "jargon" has had its day in the sun and needs to go away.

    There certainly were and are still times where epic means something, but for the most part,  it's just as common as the word "the".

    You mean, 'teh'?

    You know it, the best way to realize your dreams is waking up and start moving, never lose hope and always keep up.

    herp derp.   QQ. Go back to WOW.  Vanilla WoW (it's a game, not icecream).

    oh, and Smedly, lets abolish that word.

     Grouping in Old school mmo's: meeting someone at the bar and chatting, getting to know them before jumping into bed.  Current mmo's grouping: tinder.  swipe, hookup, hope you don't get herpes, never see them again.
