I'm sure I've heard much more stupid than this but since I haven't been playing in 2 years, this is all I got. Someone was doing trivia in LA for rewards. One of the questions was who is the dragon under the ice in Drakkar Lake. The "correct" answer was Jormag.

If you're gonna do trivia, get your facts right first. It is not a dragon at all and it sure as hell isn't Jormag, it's a champion of Jormag and it never was given an official name, just a player-made name which was "Drakkar." Someone in chat said basically that yet the guy who won said it was Jormag.

It depends on which wiki you want to believe. If one goes by the official wiki, then it's not Jormag. But, the unofficial wiki states that "it has been revealed to be" Jormag.

So, the stupid thing here is that anyone actually cares about that sort of thing?

No, the stupid thing is assuming that a post about such a trivial matter was motivated by someone caring about it, especially when it's more likely that the post was the result of boredom, just like this one.

miscommunication or one guy that doesn't seem to comprehend english, the latter being more likely.

Seems simple enough: one player is using slang ("OS"/"old-school") and the other player doesn't realize that "OS" = "uninscribable". I think that a lot of older players forget that, to anyone who started playing after inscriptions were released, the idea that an uninscribable item is worth MORE than an inscribable item makes absolutely no goddamn sense. Look at the seller's last two lines and tell me that that's NOT what he's trying to say.

Running a dungeon, one of the other players randomly asks if anyone there had ever combined alcohol with <name of sleep medication excised> and mentions they'd apparently acted very out of character as a result. When I pointed out that was a stupid and dangerous action, they asked me for advice. I gave them the best advice I knew, to talk with a doctor and not booze out while medicated, but...

Why are they getting advice on potentially fatal drug combinations from A GAME!?!

To be honest, I was more worried about what this guy was planning to do with my miniatures (=> AIDS transmission).

That guy is just asking for the BO which you refuse to give to him and even calling him a wanna be trader. DO you have any reason to presume he is a wanna be trader? No wonder he gets annoyed and writes some crap comment at you.
Who here is now stupid? you could have had a trade completed.
Or am i mistaken?

...yes, as he gave me some stupid lowball offer (I didnt spam for it ingame, so he must've seen my thread & even that c/o was higher than his offer)
