Until Someone Gets An Eye Poked Out; Geeked For Life

Blizzard noob, newb and nub penalties. Fictional of course.

2009-11-21T23:05:00.003-05:00

I had a great idea when I was writing my last post and of course, I couldn't leave well enough alone.

What if Blizzard implemented a noob penalty system? If *I* worked at Blizzard, my penalization system would sort of look like this:

Garble, ie idiot speak: Any player, who speaks "garble" at any time will be branded for talking or using any chat system for no less than an hour. Garble includes: rants about "your mom", notorious whining for whatever reason, cussing out bg players because "they" suck, and any other type of language used at any time during game play which lowers the intelligent points of other players. All players have a new button implemented into their interface called "Help, I don't speak Idiot". With that button, any player who encounters garble can submit the idiot speaker to Blizzard. Blizzard will then decide if reported player is in fact an idiot speaker. If found to be an idiot speaker, Blizzard will place a gag order on the player in violation for no less than an hour. During this time, said player won't even be able to speak to him or herself and a dunce cap will be applied to said players head for the exact duration of time the gag ordered is issued for. The dunce cap will be to warn other players that said dunce cap idiot is in fact an idiot speaker; and also as a way to be polite and inform other players WITHOUT informing them that they cannot reply to their chats or conversation in any way because they have been branded as an idiot speaker.

After one player gets issued a gag order more than 10 times in their leveling life, Blizzard will automatically give them the Idiot Title Award. For example, player "ISpeakIdiot" will not have a permanent banner title and their new name will appear as "ISpeakIdiot: Champion of Idiocy". Players cannot remove this banner without submitting and passing:

1.) A grammar test
2.) An IQ test
3.) An incest test

and of course
4.) A warcraft slang test.

IF for any reason, said branded player fails any of the above, their title will be changed to demonstrate such failure and not be removed until the test is passed. For example if , "ISpeakIdiot:Champion of Idiocy" fails an incest test, his/her new title will be "ISpeakIdiot:Champion of Idiocy Who Does Their Mom" will be applied.

I broke your CC:
Any player, at any time, who breaks a cc will not be permitted to use the skill they broke cc with for no less than an hour. If for example a player breaks a blind with a garrote, the player that broke said cc with garrote will no longer be able to use the ability:garrote for no less than an hour. If any player breaks more than 3 cc's within an hour, all of their abilities will be deactivated and they must attend an online "Learn How to Play, Noob" class situated in all major cities as listed on your interface map. Here, the player will be put through a serious of tests using two NPC's as references. IF any player, at any time breaks a cc during the "Learn How to Play Noob" class, they will be killed on site and be forced to rez no less than a city away from their death site and be able to be attacked while in spirit form allowing the player to be killed repeatedly on their way back to said class.

Non participation in bg's: The battleground leader will now have the option to immediately kick anyone from a bg that becomes inactive without Blizzard intervention. The AFK symbol must appear above the player's head that is to be kicked from the bg. If Blizzard determines that at any time a bg leader erroneously kicked a player from a bg that was not titled as inactive, a 30 day ban will be put on that bg leader's account implementing all characters. There are no second chances: If a bg leader inappropriately marks and kicks someone as inactive during a bg that is truly not AFK on two occasions, said player will be banned from Warcraft BY: NAME, CREDIT CARD, ADDRESS, AND IP ADDRESS. We hate inactive players just as much as the next, but we also hate jerks. We will ban you.
A player kicked from a bg who was in fact inactive for any reason will be refused admittance to another bg for an hour, lose all honor gained in said bg removed from, and must attend the "Log Out if You Must" class and/or the "Emergencies Can Wait" class situated in your capital city and marked on your map interface. This class will teach users a few important subjects such as but not limited to:
How to click "Leave Bg"
How to log out appropriately, even if you are in a BG,
Your dog humping your leg was not really an emergency,
and It really wasn't that bad of a kitchen fire anyway.

Leaving a dungeon or raid group after entering the instance: (booting or pc crashes do not apply)
Any player that leaves a dungeon or raid group after entering the instance, except within cases where an electrical down, pc crash or any other act of the friggen almighty makes the player go offline, will not be able to join any other group- cross realms or not, for no less than an hour. Please note that Blizzard has also implemented the "THIS PLAYER SUCKS" feature on your interface, so leaving a group because "they suck" is no longer an excuse. If, at any time, one enters a raid or dungeon group and realizes they signed on with a hell of a huntard, for example, a voting system titled "THIS PLAYER SUCKS" can be clicked. Only TWO players can be voted upon; mainly because you really aren't that much better than them and we don't enjoy narcissists at Blizzard. And, we really don't care that it was time for school; they teach you time in school and by the age of 10 you should realize and know how long it takes to run a dungeon or raid and how long before your bus arrives. Your hour will be calculated as real intime game play, so signing off for an hour will be of no use to you.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS RULE ALSO APPLIES TO ANYONE THAT GOES AFK DURING A DUNGEON OR RAID GROUP.

Either during or after your hour ban from entering any other dungeon or raid group, you must attend a class in your capital city called:
" Big Hand, Little Hand". During this course, you will have to answer questions such as:
1.) It is 8:00 a.m. My short bus comes at 8:05 am. Will I have time to run VOH?
2.) Did you really think we would wait while you ate your pizza rolls?
3.) My mom gives me a bath with my ducky at 7:00 p.m. It is now 7:07 p.m. and you are downing the last boss in TOC. What should you do?
    a.) Politely ask mom to wait?
    b.) Get your uber dad to play your toon for you?
    c.) Have to retake this test because I thought a and or b was an appropriate answer and still cannot calculate time management?

Use of the word NUB instead of noob or newb or even newwwwwb, newbie, noobbie, noobadin, etc.

ANY USE OF THE WORD ~~NUB~~ WILL MAKE YOUR ACCOUNT INACTIVE FOR TWO DAYS ACROSS ALL CHARACTERS. NUB IS NOT A WORD TO BE USED WITHIN BLIZZARD. IN FACT, NUB ISN'T EVEN A WORD. FURTHERMORE, NUB MAKES NO SENSE. IN NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM DOES NUB EVEN SO MUCH AS AMOUNT TO:NOOB. AND YOU SHOULDN'T BE PLAYING VIDEO GAMES IF YOU THINK OTHERWISE. YOU PROBABLY ALSO CALLED ROGUES ROUGES AND PALADINS PADALINS, DON'T YOU?
THE CORRECT LINGO FOR A PERSON NEW TO A GAME IS NOOB. PLEASE REFERENCE THE WORD BOOB. NOOB SOUNDS LIKE BOOB. NUB SOUNDS LIKE TUB, HUB, BUB, SUB. DO YOU SEE THE DIFFERENCE? NEWB ALSO SOUNDS LIKE BOOB AND IS APPROPRIATE SPELLING FOR THE LINGO USED TO REFERENCE SOMEONE NEW TO A GAME.
WE HAVE PUT THIS PARAGRAPH IN CAPITAL LETTERS BECAUSE IF YOU ARE READING THIS SECTION, YOU MORE THAN LIKELY HAVE USED THE NOT A WORD- NUB AND ARE POSSIBLY ILLITERATE.
Please.No.Use.Word.Nub. There, is that better?

Use of the word ~~zerg.~~ is prohibited. This isn't a term, and no matter how much you wish it to be; it probably will not become one. No one knows what zerg really means, but it is cheap talk for "Oh my, a crap load of Horde/Alliance is coming this way". "Crap load" would be more acceptable, as it is widely understood and generally tolerated. You may also use the terms:
Boatload,
Buttload,
Wagon full,
Small Army,
Oh chit. This will generally suffice and most people know what you mean.
As well as:
Run.
Run is an okay word.

Use of the word ~~ZOMG.~~ is prohibited. If you use this word, the following paragraph will be understood by you. It will also be understood by others who do not use this word with one exception: we are laughing at you and actually know why. Dear Zomg user: Like Zomg, did you seeS that friggen padalin? He just totally like um rolled my face in your mother's uh oh and like holy crapadin, what a nub. He is totally coming back with more friends. Like ZOMG. ZOMG. B.S. is about to be zerged , like totally zomg friggen zerged. Someone hug me !

Furthermore, after you get rickrolled at B.S. and type into the chat frame: ZOMG, you guys are totally nubs. I mean what the Eff? Seriously, I was down there asking for hugs and loving on you and you effin totally like ignored me. This is why alliance sucks, you are all a bunch of nubs. Z.O.M.G.!

Usage of the "non words" ZERG and ZOMG will sign you up for the following classes that you must attend depending on which term you violate:
1.) I'm such a baby.
2.) I'm a whiny little byatch baby that speaks like a valley girl.
3.) I'm more than likely 10 and have to pause frequently for juice breaks.

You will also receive said title and said title will not be removed until Blizzard can establish that you have spoken appropriately for at least ten days straight. Example: "ISpeakGarble" will now be labeled as "ISpeakGarble"/I need a juice break or "ISpeakGarble"-King or Queen of the ByatchBaby.

Well, that will be all for now. I am pretty positive I can think of more and will post them as they come.

Warcraft PTR Patch 3.3.0. Seriously?

2009-11-21T22:09:00.001-05:00

Blizzard put up the warcraft ptr patch notes and with that being said... I'm always happy about new ways to get epic gear.

Some of the notes I found absolutely insane, hysterical or wtf are these:

Level 1 characters no longer start with food or water in their inventory. It sounds terrible, huh? There is nothing like finding yourself dead... a lot... when trying out a new game. Thats ok though, they make for that by adding this into the patch: Health and Mana Regeneration: These regeneration rates have been increased by up to 200% for low level characters. As a player's level increases, the regeneration rates gradually reduce, returning to normal rates at level 15.

(and by this time if you can't make or find your own food, you should probably uninstall the game). When are they going to allow the making of mana drinks ( not potions)? .

Another noob fail is going to be this:

Attack: Level 1 druids, mages, priests, and warlocks will no longer start with the Attack button placed on their action bars by default.

There are going to be level one druids, mages, priests and warlocks running around having absolutely no idea how to hit something back ( or attack something) and dying of malnutrition while they are at it. Way to go Blizzard! Note to the noobs: Run like a bunny on speed from the mob that you couldn't figure out how to attack until you are out of combat. Then, regain your health and mana almost instantaneously at the upcoming 200 percent rate. We're going to see an awful lot of noobs running around like chickens with their heads cut off. I don't know about you, but I'm going to Teldrasil when the patch gets released... just for giggles and all.

Druid fail: Prowl: This ability no longer has multiple ranks and penalizes movement speed by 30%. Ok seriously, wtf? I'm sure Blizzard has noticed now that druids wear two types of clothes being cloth and leather. We're not exactly the best dps class in the game, especially when being smashed upside the head by a plate or mail wearer. Don't worry though, Blizzard just made it ten times easier to be seen and pwned in bg's by said mail and plate wearers as you are tediously and ever-so-slowly crawling your way to the tempting priest you were just going to gank. Thanks Blizzard.

Priests (holy and discipline) only get these two improved or new skills:

Divine Hymn: The cooldown on this spell has been reduced to 8 minutes, down from 10 minutes. Power Word: Shield: This spell can now be cast on non-raid/party friendly targets. Big freaking whoop. So while I am in Teldrasil laughing at the noobs who have no idea how to attack, I can at least bubble them. Yippee. I do like the improved Divine Hymn though. I don't like being able to have it knocked off me though.

It also, as of now, appears that Mages and Hunters will probably be dishing out some even higher dps. Oh goody, just what we needed, right? Yeah yeah, that's good for all the mages and hunters out there. Actually, deathknight tanks seem to have a better way to ... be tanks as well. And paladins? Meh. I skimmed their updates.... I peeked but didn't fully read nor interpret. I am afraid, very afraid in fact, of what they may have done that makes them even BETTER of course.

I have to say though that the best, most exciting thing I have read so far about the new patch is this:
~~Ignore List:~~ The amount of characters a person can ignore has been increased to 50. In addition, players on other realms can be placed on the Ignore list. FREAKING AWESOME! Way to go Blizzard! I can finally put more and more uber newbs on ignore? Really? YAY! My list has been full for ages on ALL my characters, so thank you for that.

BUT, because we will be able to communicate with noobs across different realms, the unfortunate and sad fact is that you flobnobbins will no longer; for example, be able to stuff all your demonic and rathering boring messages inside of you until the end of a bg.. then let said messages go with: you all suck so bad you....do...your...moms...(wtf?) WITHOUT having repercussions to that. Will will message you back after the bg ends. And then, put you on ignore.

Personally, I think Blizzard should penalize the uber noobs. I have found out that I run into more level 80 noobs on any given day than I do players just starting out. I think time and time again to myself "HOW did this person make it to level 80?"

Modern Warfare II :Call of Duty Makes 550 million

2009-11-19T20:33:00.000-05:00

Forget all the hype about the controversial subject of Modern Warfare 2: Call of Duty; Activision-Blizzard is making so much money, they could care less. And frankly, neither could I. People everywhere always need something to pick on, so video games are not off limits. Personally, the only time you'd hear me complain about the "humanity of video games" is when my carpal AND cubital tunnel syndromes flare up.

Back to the topic: 550 million! Obviously, Modern Warfare 2: Call of Duty has completely surpassed all of the other now former best selling video games. The equally sick yet exciting part is that it pulled down those figures in just five days. I am glad to know that not everyone is petrified that the "russians are coming".

Obviously, Activision wishes this buying spree tread to continue. Will it? Maybe, maybe not. If anyone hasn't noticed, it is the holiday times so my guess is that after the holidays.. and the economy's pockets completely drained, a HUGE sale decrease is going to occur. Then again, when little Timmy finds out that little Johnny got Modern Warfare 2: Call of Duty for Christmas and relentlessly nags his Mother until his ears bleed, another buying trend may be established.

Whatever. In your face Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.

Brad Pitt as star role in Dark Void?

2009-11-19T20:17:00.000-05:00

Created by Airtight Games, Dark Void is not even scheduled to hit the shelves until January of 2010. The game sounds sort of hum drum however: a 1950's pilot crashes into the Bermuda Triangle and fights to survive. Meh. I think I could live without it.

However, latest news is that Brad Pitt has already bought the rights to the upcoming game and may, or may not ( depending on which article you read) play the lead character of Will in an upcoming movie.

People are excited by this: Brad Pitt, as the lead star in a video tanking his cute little behind through aliens. Again, I must say "meh". I think perhaps I am all Brad Pitt-ed out and neither the video game Dark Void nor the much speculated movie thrills me. Then again, neither does Brad Pitt so perhaps that it why it is so hum drum to me. Where's Vin Diesel when you need him? I'd much rather see some alien goo slobbered all over his young face, than Brad Pitt's. But hey, thats just me.

According to Risky Business, there are no writers for a this speculated film, yet. And is it just that? Is it just speculation? Maybe. You have an actor buying out video rights to a video game and suddenly, the internet world is booming that there is going to be a movie, and that Brad Pitt is going to be the lead role. Who says that is true? I mean, I'm a mother, so if I go buy a gallon of milk, does that mean I am going to spawn ten more children? Of course not. Thats Angelina's job. Sorry Brad.

Here's a trailer to Dark Void as posted on Youtube by Viso Games.

You cannot attack that target: Warcraft Quirks

2009-11-19T19:53:00.000-05:00

So, as you may or may not know, or may or may not have gathered from my page: I'm a girl/woman/chic/mil.... ok that's enough. Having said that, let me tell you just a little bit more about my warcraft history.

I started out as a night elf rogue and I played her pretty relentlessly until I got completely tired of seeing all sorts of messages from:
1.) You cannot attack that target. Really? Gee thanks Blizzard, you mean I can't hit the level one horde warrior in the mouth that just tried to attack me? C'mon, get real!
2.) You cannot do that right now.
3.) You do not have enough energy. You do not have enough energy. You do not have enough energy.
4.) You CANNOT BLIND YOURSELF. Yeah, you heard that right. One time, somehow or another, I actually got the Warcraft error telling me I could not blind myself.

And of course that list goes on and on. Now, you can use mods to block those relentless annoying errors, but the fact of the matter was: My rogue still sucked. Let me be honest as to why: I suck. A rogue just wasn't for me. It never was and it never will be. But, it became clear to me that even when I hushed all of my errors, that my rogue was still not performing as a rogue. Stealth wasn't stealth. Vanish wasn't vanish. And more often than not; you could hear me then YELLING out what I had shut up in my mods, such as "for pete freaking sake, just freaking attack the gdamn fricken pally back. Stupid rogue!"

So, I re rolled a female night elf hunter. Let me just tell you now- I was not a huntard. I could kite another Warcraft player for miles and have fun doing so. I knew when to trap, I knew when to feign, I knew when and HOW to put my pet on stay and then recall him so that he doesn't aggro mobs. ( Some of you noobs might want to implement this tactic). And, I always topped the dps charts in MOST bgs. I never raided with her. As I have said on my general page- I left her dead out in borean tundra. Poor girl is still there.

I then rerolled a priest. So now I had heals but no one worth healing. That was completely annoying. Unless you were my bf who sat back to back with me ( he's my tank), I pretty much got aggravated. Also, I found out very quickly that priests are utterly abused on warcraft. We are. If you don't believe me, go for it and roll one. But don't complain when you find out its true.

And my latest reroll is a druid. I loved my druid. My druid completely rocked and would pwn your face in a split second or two. I leveled as FERAL. I never tried out boomkin. I'm pretty loyal to just one spec. I sort of always have been. And I leveled completely fine. When I hit 80, I duel spec'd and added resto into the mix. Restoration is pretty fun. I can say that much. But let me just tell you now.... since being a level 80 druid, I am completely fed up.

My druid doesn't give me errors. That much I can say. However, I can chase one target around for miles before actually landing a hit. And I am not talking about misses, dodges, etc. I am talking MY DRUID will NOT attack. I chased a horde shaman today from the blacksmith clear up to the lumber mill and successfully landed one hit on him. I realized a long time ago that you have to have your druid positioned exactly just right to so much as land a hit. It gets annoying. I am annoyed. I want to continue playing warcraft, but nothing says bite me more than not being able to hit back or return a punch to the mage that just hit me in the face for 13k; due to no reason other than Warcraft Glitches.

All this time I played my rogue, I thought for sure that rogues had to be the most glitched class around. I'm seriously contemplating that not being true anymore.

I have a fantabulous suggestion for Blizzard though. IF a druid signs into bg's while in flight form, that druid should be able to LEAVE the bg IN FLIGHT FORM. Does anyone have a clue as to how many times I came out of a bg and fell to my death? Sigh. Perhaps I am my own noob. Now when my pvp screen pops up, I try to get my druid somewhere safe and quickly.

But all in all, I am pretty tired of being face rolled simply due to not being able to attack back. My settings are fine, so it isn't that. Being owned is one thing, but being completely annihilated without so much as a one quick strike back due to LITERALLY not being able to attack that target is a waste of my time.

Nothing says pwned more than a few Warcraft glitches.

Countdown to World of Warcraft's Fifth Year Anniversary

2009-11-18T23:36:00.000-05:00

On November 23, 2009, Warcraft will turn five years old- at least live and available to the market. Blizz worked behind the scenes for years before releasing Warcraft.

Rob Pardo, Vice President of the World of Warcraft thought introducing our ( at least my beloved MMOG) game
would encourage gamers to want to try out other MMOG games. I don't know about you, but... nah. I love Warcraft, I'm addicted to Warcraft and kinda got stuck on Warcraft. If I get bored, I create another character or perhaps take a break or two for a few weeks.. until I start dreaming about pwning people in BG's. Then I do the obvious: I log in and pwn people in BG's.

Regarding competitive "e-sports" in Arenas, Pardo reported the following:
"I'm not sure that that was the right thing to do with the game ... we just added it on, so it continues to be very difficult to balance. Is WoW a PvE cooperative game, or a competitive PvP game? ... I don't think we ever foresaw how much tuning and tweaking we'd have to do to balance it in that direction. Either I'd go back in time to before WoW ever shipped and change the rules to make the basic game more conductive for being an e-sport, or if not that, just say it doesn't make sense. Right now, WoW has a bit of a schizophrenic philosophy behind it, and we're trying to figure out how to guide it."

Thank you. We're glad you noticed. However, if he is saying that implementing Arena's all together was a bad idea- I'd have to say no. No one forces your hand to start an arena team. My main complaint is the gear, but thats another post. It seems a bit unfair... but I digress.

Anyways, Happy Birthday to them.

Nvidia 3D Vision gaming LAPTOP

2009-11-17T23:36:00.000-05:00

Yup, they have em, and they already exist and the functionally of playing your game works great.. right after you install program x, hookup hardware B, and do the hokey pokey. Sorry, got carried away.

Nvidia claims you can nix all the above (including the often grandma- taught-to-small-children-to-keep-them-happy-dance) and just get straight to gaming. It comes with a hell of a pricetag however. I mean, it could come in handy. A portable gaming system for the already hooked addicts that some of us are is pretty much what the doctor ordered:

Take it to the ballgame, take it to starbucks and rickroll some face, take it to the delivery room. What? Sometimes that can take hours, you know? In any event, here ya go:

Modern Warfare 2 Hype

2009-11-17T21:22:00.000-05:00

There are talks of the night goggles required for this game being a bad idea; obviously perverts will run amok. Ah, of course I then browsed an article claiming that Modern Warfare 2 is pretty much eroding our soldiers who are compartmentalizing the game.
Sure, I know what you mean. Every once in a while, I pretend to be my Warcraft Rogue and stealth walk my dog into my landlords yard so he can finish up his business. Every once in a while, I gank my children as well. Meh. There are news feeds and blog feeds galore saying Russia has banned the game. There are about as many negating that fact. Who knows, perhaps tomorrow your Grandmother will have banned the game and come Friday, changed her mind. That isn't worth reporting for as much as it changes.

But one article I found interesting written by Gieson Cacho from ContraCosta News was this: Mercury News,

Because, yes, as you all should know.. Modern Warfare 2 completely alerts people "to a real and dangerous world." Uh huh. I see. If, by any chance, the United States is any type of immediate danger from Russia; please by all means let me know. Likewise, as well. Anddd from there he starts jabbering about other video games...and from there someone/something/one of them is coined "sadistically tough". (ramble, ramble)

It's a game! Not to mention, it sort of looks like an interesting game and has sold oddles of copies already. I'm guessing that it has sold 4.7 million copies on the first day because there are exactly 4.7 million americans wishing to peeping tom their gay neighbor, or perhaps 4.7 million future american soldiers wish to learn what not to do in actual and real combat, or maybe, just maybe 4.7 million Grandma's bought the video game so they could ban it the next day. Who knows.

CHICKS CAN PWN TOO, CLOWNS!

2009-11-16T13:53:00.000-05:00

Ha! So you've found your way here. Great! Not only have you mastered the art of gaming, but you've found your way around the internet as well. I can't complain.

Right about now though, you're wondering whats up with this blog, whats the purpose, how did it spawn.. you know, all the fun stuff. I can answer most of your basic questions here.

Contrary to popular belief and hype in the game world, chicks do play. My poison is World of Warcraft. Sure, I've dabbled in other games, but I was really seeking out a fantasy game as I liked the content of them much better than other games out there. I started early. I mastered Pac Man in the Atari Days, completely beat Kid Chameleon in my Sega Years, did some odd x amount of hours playing Super Mario Brothers, and even spent countless hours playing Pogo online. Of course that list isn't complete, and I'm sure it will never be.

I first got introduced into interactive player to player games through my ex husband; enter counterstrike. It wasn't for me. I got offed plenty of times if I so much as sneezed and couldn't click my reload fast enough, even though it was mouse toggled. Needless to say, I played the game anyway. Still yet, it wasn't what *I* was looking for. When I mentioned "fantasy game" to my current boyfriend and he came home with Warcraft a few years ago, he had to pry me away from the game in order to get "his turn". Two new computers, two warcraft accounts and a few expansion packs later, I still play.

My first character was a night elf rogue, my second a night elf hunter, my third a draenei priest, and my fourth ...er one of many, a night elf druid.

And yes, too all the naysayers.... I am.. a female.

And of course, Warcraft is what motivated me to start this site. From hours spent searching the latest patch, the newest gear, the latest machinima movies to looking up countless hilarious videos portraying the never ending "noobs", a thought occurred to me:

While in a BG thinking to myself "did I really just see that?" or perhaps in the middle of storm peaks while laughing at the druid that didn't hit flight form in time, or watching another never ending and often very distracting trade "nerd rage" episodes .. I thought... why not? Why not a Warcraft Hall of Shame? Why not a one stop for gamers that includes everything on one page? But mainly I thought....

why not a Warcraft Hall of Shame?

Don't be so shy... we've all done it. I know I have.

Lets take for example the time on my rogue that I dismantled a paladin and he in return face rolled me for 13k?
How about when I inadvertently broke a blind on a flag carrier which caused a loss in WSG... while I was playing said rogue?
Or... how about the time on my priest when my boyfriend on his purple blueberried out DK bounced in front of me flapping his arms over and over saying "heal me, heal me" and I announced "look at this.. look at this tard bouncing in front of me!" Now would be the time to mention my bf is my tank. I am his healer. His computer sits inches behind me. I, therefore, sit just mere inches in front of him. We play in the same room. I can also HEAR him. Total brain fart on warcraft= face roll and in the moments after my Dk/Tank/Boyfriend's death, I soon became victim to the 5-6-7- or 8 completely jerked off horde who were trying desperately to pwn his face. ( and then blizz nerfed deathknights and I now uber cringe at the thought of healing him.. running gets exhausting).
I can go on, and thus I will:

Same rogue, WSG, flare. Me, on my dastardly and sneaky rogue at oh say 4 a.m. took ample steps to ensure I wasn't seen walking into horde territory. Enter flare. See flare. Acknowledge flare. Walk into flare. Get gang mobbed by 5 horde while random alliance player types out to the bg... "XXXX.. you're a freaking NUB".

Yeah, I know right.. you seen that too, huh? The x's and all. Another point of interest in my blog is that you will never know who I am. Likewise, I should never know who you are, unless of course you care to point that out... and this applies only in terms of the Hall of Shame.

In order so that I can continue to play my game, so you can continue to play the game, and so that... well hell.. so we can all play our game and not get harassed or be victimized in any way, please visit the HALL OF SHAME RULES. Unfortunately, due to this nifty little feature on my blog, I will never reveal who I am, or what realm or realms I play on. Just know that at one time or another... you've seen me, you've noticed me, you wished you were me, you laughed at me, or you completely ignored me.

So for all you fellas out there that ignored me, I'd just like to say this: How's it feel to be pwned by a girl? Mwuah hahah. Someone's mom laid the gank on you. But thats ok... countless others have handed my rear to me on a plate and said "see? Your rear. want it back?"

It's all in fun folks. Video games are entertainment and believe it or not, there is entertainment that happens inside of entertainment. Before I sign off, let me demonstrate the first of the first that will be making the

HALL OF SHAME. ( Please note to follow the links to the Hall of Shame for future reference. Be sure to read posting rules). The following are actual encounters that I have experienced, witnessed or been part of.

Huntingpapa. Hunter. No peak allowed.
When asked why he was wearing all spellpower gear, he/she replied "because my shots are spells". When asked why he thought that, he replied: "Because they are in my spell book". Said hunter was a level 74 at this point...

Fixated. Rogue. No peak allowed.
Ah, I experienced this annoying little turd over.. and over... and over... and over again. You get awarded an EPIC fail for GY ganking and tbagging.. each and every time.

I'mACuttie. Warlock. No peak allowed.
You get awarded a general fail for spelling your own handle wrong.. and not noticing same for 80 levels. You're not really cute anymore, are ya?

And that folks, is just the beginning. Keep your eyes and ears peeled. If you can catch a frap and it is fully executable, or can freeze a chat frame, send it my way for the Hall of Shame.

And for all the naysays out there who think girls can't play... check out GiGi. This girl can kick ass and takes names. Give it up for Gigi. Here's her Youtube page, check it out. jljarrar (Gigi's) Youtube page.
