Curse

I had a funny experience with a kurzick assassin in AB. During ancestral lands, I saw this person on local chat taunting and taunting the luxons with stuff like "Suxons, you all so n00b!" and what not. It happens a lot so I just ignored it and did my thing, till I saw this very guy teleport right in front of me. Instinctively I began attacking - assassins usually dmg fast so it's good to get a headstart. Except this fella was so busy typing insults, he let me degen him to death.

I left him then commenting to him that if he spent more time fighting than talking, he'd probably have something to boast about. Instead of taking the advise, he continued... now aimed at me, "Talia you coward! I killed you noob!" And I replied "No, I'm fairly certain I killed you while you were in front of me and not moving." and my teammate confirmed it for me. But this guy went on, insisting that he'd killed me. And that all luxons are suxons and cowards and noobs.

Oh well, I decided to leave him alone - luxons won that round. After that game, I heard someone else killed him while he was still typing.

A friend of mine, in his noob days, was told to avoid aggro. He responded, "I will. I don't even have that skill unlocked." That may not have been what actually was said, but it was something to that effect.

Reading the other comments, it reminded me of a mysterious person who PMed me one day, went something like this -

Person: Hi
Me: Hi
Person: How r u?
Me: Fine, you? *check friendlist and he isn't in it*
Person: I'm good.
Me: Sorry, don't want to be rude but what other in-game names do you come under? 'Cos I don't recognize this one.
Person: Check your friendlist.
Me: I just did, I can't find you.
Person: I have 40 odd people in my friendlist and I've memorized every single one of them!
Me: I do too, except I have more than 40 and it's overflowed.
Person: I'm deleting you from my friendlist if I mean that little to you!
Me: Erm, why the temper? Just list your other in-game names, maybe I'll recognize one of them.
Person: Don't bother contacting me again!
Me: Okaaayyyy..... (???)

Me: Sorry to break it to you, but I'm a guy and I'm not interested.
Him: WTF!!! What kinda homo guy plays a girl?
Me: I just chose a female character to create for my necro. Nothing more than that.
Him: Dude, you're so gay. You are in denial. Your'e such a closet homosexual it's not even funny.
Me: Ummmm...whatever dude. (Just ignoring him now)

And he continues to ramble on about the issue. I love the internet, but sometimes it really can bring out the worst in people. Other times it just brings out the stupid people.

Lulz.

I used to play Golden-Tee Live at a local bar.

One night a friend came up behind me and saw my character :

him: "Dude your guy's a girl !"

I'm a total noob at MMORPGs - just made level 11 Dervish in 2 days.

I wanted to make a female but didn't want to put up with the wise-cracks.

"May I wibble your jippersnappers?" (or something like that)

I still don't have a clue about what does that mean.

That's either an absurd invitation of a slightly questionable nature (cyber?) or a person who likes the Jabberwocky poem.

I was in a PUG a couple of weekends ago doing some quests that I skipped over in Kryta. One of the people in my group just randomly said, "Telephones have no nutritional value." That's the only thing she said the entire mission, not another peep....

"Is that a banana in your pocket or are you just happy to see me"

That gave me a mighty chuckle

Randomness ftw.

i know that this isn't really what one person said to me, but it's still strange.

i was abing a little while ago, and i was on the kurzick side when i saw that some on the luxons said something about wanting peace between the kurzicks and the luxons.
a lot of people type stupid stuff at the start of ab, so i choose to ignore it.
the timer hit zero, so the we went out to cap all the shrines, and then the message pops up saying we have all the shrines.
my team went over hear the luxon base, and all of them were shelled up inside their base.....
i couldn't believe that someone convinced 11 other people to stay inside the base........we one after the minute...it was still quite weird, and i haven't seen anything like that since.

something along these lines last night:
him: hey are you still looking for a guild?
me: uhh no (I'm a leader of a guild) where did you hear that
him: QQ lookin for a guild (or something non nonsensical like that)
me: what? you make no sense what's QQ
him: a forum
me: no I'm not looking for a guild must've been a wrong name you got
him: I'm drunk
him: I'm drunk

I proceed to stop the conversation right there. I have no idea where that came from as I'm definitely not looking for a guild.

I can talk about this one so much:

Guild Leader: I don't believe you're a guy.
Me: Well, I am.
Guild Leader: Yeah, well, you're not welcome here then.

Random guys whispers me:

Random Guy: "hei I am making a very leet guild, all people in it have fow armor and at least "kind of a big deal"; I bet you wanna join!"

Me:"Uh, no thnks, but I must give you a suggestion; don't consider players from their armor or their titles, consider how they actually play"

Random Guy:"gtfo n00b"

/report ftw xD That was actually funny!

shrouded^god · Feb 03, 2008, 08:23 PM // 20:23

This was a while ago, some dude spamming in local W T S max bow 25k cheap! so I pm'd him, what is it, what are the mods? He rambles off a list of non-max mods on a very common r10 bow (flatbow or some uber common skin) I was like dude, that's merch food. He was like no wtf noob its max I'm just selling cheap to get rid of it... I lol'd.

Also, the other day I was in TOA getting in a group for fow when some guy starts spamming WTB ecto 4k! sell it now price is going down! someone said ecto is 4.6-5k the guy starts calling everyone noob that ecto prices are dropping fast. So I jumped to guild hall, checked the rare mats trader, still selling at 5.5, jumped back and said no they're still the same. So the guy calls me a noob and says they're 4.3 at rare mats trader. I was like nooooo, I just checked. They might BUY for 4.3 or whatever, but they're selling at 5.5 still. He was either really dumb or a really dumb scammer lol.

While loading Rata Sum after spending no more than a minute and a half in Gunnar's Hold, I got a PM from a guy: "flying v formation??".

Still trying to figure out if it's related to my guild tag or a totally random PM...

He's talking about Team Quitter [QQ]. Maybe he just thought you made a recruitment post.
