What would they complain about?

 

Heres Mine,

 

"OMG I cant believe they added in, "The Internet" with the last patch! Now instead of going to the mall and hoping my friends would be there, we can just talk online at our houses. I dont know why its just so less immersive now, since theres not that random hope of seeing your friends when you go out.

 

I really hope G.O.D. changes the way "The Internet" works and makes it so you can only acess it certain times of the day, Then us hardcore people could still go to the mall at certain times, and the carebear kids could sit at home on their internet.

 

Whos with me!?!?"

    Mike: Hi Bob, how was your day?

    Bob: $£*#.

    Mike: Why, what happened?

    Bob: Oh, it was
    $£*#ing Fred. He was lording it all day because he's got a $£*#ing ferarri.

    Mike: What, Fred the drooling mailroom guy with the weird eye who hasn't had a date since the 60's?!

    Bob: That's the
    $£*#er.

    Mike: Woah, that sucks. How did he afford that?

    Bob: Dunno, bet he bought the cash from the
    $£*# goldfarmers.

    Mike: Sucks. By the way, why do you keep saying
    $£*#?

    Bob: Profanity filter's stuck.

    PKers would be on Death Row.

    oh wait, in real life PKers DO go to death row!

    I guess that's a way we can get Open PvP... if somebody is found guilty of PKing, their character is permanently lost.

    I would be the fastest runner in the world, except when I have lag.

    Carebears would:

    1. Watch/Be on Oprah/The View

    2. Drive SUVs while on the cell phones all day long

    3. Own Hondas or other cars with loud fart pipes

    4. Only race minivans/station wagons/SUVs

    5. Watch Fox News religiously

    Don't be terrorized! You're more likely to die of a car accident, drowning, fire, or murder! More people die every year from prescription drugs than terrorism LOL!

    That's only if you PK without being a member of your faction's RvR guild, or PK someone who's not a valid war target.

    Even IRL, nobody likes open PvP.

    I mean, how would the system be regulated? There's always those kids who can get around the system... It's like the black market. Or maybe I'm just tired.

     

    But open PvP makes for real life a helluva lot more interesting..........

    Have you ever seen someone die, let alone be murdered.? You really are a complete and utter idiot.  Please go read a book and maybe you will stumble upon a thought that does not make anyone who is not  mentally challenged want to vomit. 

    “It's unwise to pay too much, but it's worse to pay too little. When you pay too much, you lose a little money - that's all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot - it can't be done. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.”

    I cant believe it, these new lightbulbs only last me a year, ever since the durability nerf on em.

     

    Luckily I have a pre-nerf lightbulb in my garage, it should last me at least another 15 years.

     

    God i miss the good old days!

    If real life was a mmo I would start by pking every member of the goverment everywhere to create total anarchy then I would hack it and make it look like -------> Bob   did it. Then I would do a raid with my guild on Africa to get us some diamonds.

       What a stupid thread ... if RL had a community like an MMO,RL has a community like in a MMO.People dont act differently in games then they act in RL.If someone in a mmo thinks that he is the best leader will think that he is the best leader in RL aswell.

    Seriously, Have you been to the mall within the last year or so? I've never been to a more MMO type environment.

    When I arrive, I park my mount only to see some lady park her epic mount in a nicer spot.

    When I get inside, I am ignored by the majority of the community because some dude in infinately nicer gear then me walks by.

    When I'm at the stores, I pay an ungodly amount for low quality crap I could easily get for cheaper on the AH. (or ebay, what eva)

    I walk into the food court and get accosted by NPC's that are all stereotypes representing their race.

    90% of the stores carry crap I'll never need, and I have to search for an hour before I find the one item I came for.

    If you sit in one area and harrass people long enough, pvp will ensue.

    If you attempt to envoke pvp on your own, you get swarmed by guards.

    The vast majority of the people around you are about 12 and talk like they're 25.

    And where I live, a crap ton of the people you THINK are girls, are really just emo guys.

    Thats so funny! In my head im just imagining a bunch of EQ graphic looking security guards running at a couple of kids, with health bars bouncing above their heads.

    I mean.... if everyone is 12 and talks like their 25, how are they married?

     

     

     

    and what if we're chicks?   o.O

       First, it was just a quick, off the cuff joke. ;p 

     

     Second, who said everyone is 12?  The mean average age of MMO players is 24-26 yrs old. 

     When you double your current age, married or not, you'll notice an even paced mental regression in many areas of your life.  The reason for this is that you've long since been set in your ways and your no longer in any hurry to grow up.  You'll reserve a high level of maturity for your work, formal social gatherings and, in part, for your family.  The rest goes right out the window, as you find, that being to serious in life is detrimental to your overall health, at a time when you can least afford it. 

     Last, if your a 'chick' whose married to another woman, well, that's a whole other issue.  It may prove entertaining in trying to 'straight-en' her out, as well.  

     Again, lol j/k...  Now, would you be dear and hand me my armor?

    there'd be more cross dressers.

    I find it amazing that by 2020 first world countries will be competing to get immigrants.
