 Posted: Fri Oct 30, 2009 12:12 pm Post subject: Understanding WOW with Super Mario Bros |
 |
|
I've been talking about WOW for a bit and feel that I may be missing a few people out and they aren't able to understand everything.
So i've found this article which is 100% accurate. Seriously, I was going to quote so many passages from it I was just may as well quote the whole thing, but instead i'll just give you the link, and say I also quite liked the screenshots of Super Mario Bros with the chat window over it.

Actually, reading that reminds me of the Star Wars scene where someone is trying to sell Obi Wan death sticks ( whatever they are ).
Drug dealer - Do you want to buy some death sticks?
Obi Wan ( using Jedi Mind Trick ) - You don't want to sell me death sticks
Drug dealer - I don't want to sell you death sticks.
Obi Wan - You want to go home and re think your life
Drug dealer - I want to go home and rethink my life
But i'm going on a few short courses soon and still meet my real life friends!!!

The article is only true if you PuG with complete retards and you hang around with other idiots. Luckily, I don't tend to so I avoid the morons!

Bah, I wish you guys were on the same servers as me...my guild is boring and I need people to entertain me...lol
And honestly, I like pugs...you find interesting people...but granted the only thing I've pugged lately is the Headless Horseman. lol

Earthern Ring is where the action is! My guild is the best!
Wait, you enjoy pugging? I find them to be two extremes, very enjoyable - I actually met my current raid group when PuGing Culling of Stratholme.They were impressed with my healing and we got talking. Turns out the raid leader is also in the same LARPing group that I am.
Or I find most PuGs terribly terrible painful and I want to kill everyone there.

You're in 2 guilds, which one do you mean? 
All you'd need is a EU version of the game and you'd be sorted. I used to play EQ across the Atlantic, no problem with latency.

Majority of the deaths of my rogue was because of other people just doing what the hell they liked, pulling too much or having no respect for adds.
First time in Deadmines with my rogue I believe the conversation went something like this
Group - Hooray first boss down lets move on
Me - Wait for the patrol though yeah?
Group - Yeah
*Group charges in and onward*
Me - Uhh, guys the patrol?
*Group is far too busy fighting further down in the mines*
I realise that it's pointless, and so I activate stealth and find somewhere to watch the incoming death of a load of muppets.
I felt a great disturbance in the gameplay, as if millions of muppets suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.
