People who make you laugh :)

Just yesterday, was out doing the Zen-whatever mission (the second mission on the starter island). We get to the last part where there's a bunch of afflicted in the miasma in the temple. I'm the tank, and I don't want to run into the middle of the miasma and take them all on there. So I said, "Ranger, pull them out." Ranger says, "ok", runs past me and up the steps into the miasma, aggros the mob, then runs back. Well, I could have done that myself. LOL.

My ss/sv necro (godly, may i add) and I were doing an UW run and this random PM'd me. I was just explaining to my SS/SV how much I hated seeing a wammo with only the FoW helm and this person, by sheer co-incidence, started boasting their achievement. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry

One time this goober got in a "heated" discussion with me about the value of a certain item. At this point he starts ranting about how he is going to hack my computer and how he has a hard drive killer that he downloaded from some website and he was going to use it on me if I would just give him my IP address. Already I'm chuckling. So I said." Sure whatever scooter here you go. My IP address is 127.0.0.1" He goes," That's not a real IP." I said." Sure it is try pinging it. My security is so good you'll never get through so I'm not worried about it." A short time passes and he PMs me back" You idiot. never give a hacker your IP address. I'm in your computer already I'm uploading the hard drive killer now." He then proceeds to give me a countdown on the killer upload. Well right about 95% he stops PMing me. I go to message him to ask him where he is and what do you know that player was not online. LoL I added him to my F list and I haven't seen him since. I guess he really did have that hard drive killer after all. This just goes to show you that a little knowledge in the wrong hands is a dangerous thing but you gotta love script kiddies. They have just enough knowledge to be potentially dangerous but not enough brains to be a real threat.

EDIT: For those of you not as tech savvy 127.0.0.1 is a loopback IP for your own computer. It is mostly used for connectivity diagnostics but it can also be used to mess with people.

My favorite story is about a member of an old guild I was in. He was always wanting runs places and help doing stuff, but was always too busy to help anyone else. Well, after the guild disbanded, he kept messaging me and my husband. We tried to be nice, even though he drove us crazy. Here is one exchange (it's not exact, but you get the gist):

Him: So, what are you doing?
Me: Just farming in SF. You?
Him: My new guild is helping me get 1.5 million armor
Me: lol. Well, good for you. They sound great.
Him: Yeah, they're going to help me get all the materials and stuff and then run me down there.
Me: Great. I can't afford that armor myself. Too poor
Him: Yeah, actually, can I borrow 85k?
Me: Um, what?
Him: Can I borrow 85k to get a Rago's Flame Wand? I swear I'll pay you back.
Me: You didn't pay back the last 5k you borrowed, for your necro weapon.
Him: Come on, please?
Me: Let me get this straight. You're getting armor that costs 1.5 million to make, and you're asking ME for money to buy a flame wand?? (as a side note, my character was a fire ele, and I didn't own anything better than a purple weapon at the time)
Him: Does this mean you won't give it to me?

ick. After I refused to loan it to him (I told him I had to ask my husband since we shared the account, just to get him off my back) he stopped speaking to us. Let me tell you how much time I spent crying over that :P

I was doing a droks run when, the whole party (excluding me) bursts into song and start simutaneously typing the words to different "top" songs, ya know, like Black Eyed Peas, or whoever else is on MTV nowadays.

It's actually not that weird. B/P groups do quite well in FoW. I've been in several of them myself, easiest trips to FoW that I've ever had. And any decent B/P group will have an MM.

It's even easier now with flesh golems: just start with the beach and your MM will do a great job!

A male friend of mine plays a female ele. Some guy offered him 2k to go outside the outpost with him and dance naked. After he paid him, my friend said, "BTW, I'm a dude." The guy got so pissed off.

One time I was partied with a Ranger, and we were about to do a mission. We start the mission, and once we all load, we are still waiting for our monk to load. The ranger, after a while, kneels down and says "Hmm... Birdman tracks..."

I'm not quite sure why, but that caught me off guard, and I was laughing for a good ten minutes.

Good stories.

Sometimes ya gotta be there to have it be real funny, but those are some good ones.


Here's one I had last night.

Situation: Laggy like no other, so instead of battling the crowds, i head to the international dst. I'm bouncing around through areas just getting quests, when i come to *** (cant remember exactly what area). I notice there were only three blue dots on the mini map, but for some reason there was this lone monk spamming "monk - LFG 4 ____ quest" I sat there and watched him for around 5 min laughing while he spammed his desire to get in a group.

wow, i think i know exactly who your talking about.

Here's the latest thing that made me laugh.

I was at the Monestary, when a Ritualist walked up to an new Ele (which was asking a million dumb questions) and started a conversation.

Rit: "Hi"
Ele: "Hello"
Rit: "You have a glowing worm on your head."
Ele: "A what?"
Rit: "A glowing worm, on your head."
Rit: "I think it's trying to eat your brain."
Ele: "Oh, yea, heh, that's ah my pet."
Rit: "It's going to starve."
Rit: "Want me to kill it for you?"

Don't ask me why, but that had me laughing so hard, my sides hurt.

Just yesterday I was in a great RA group on my monk, steamrolling every other group over and over with flawless victories. Beginning at about the third match, we fought against a team including a warrior. We won, of course, and moved on to the next round. He was in this one as well, and cried out for revenge. We won again, and he yelled, "I'LL BE BACK!". Sure enough, he was back. Repeat the same exact thing about 10 times in a row. It was hilarious. One of my teammates commented that he sounded like a really bad villain, which I laughed at. It was all in good fun though, the warrior didn't seem to take any real offense. Unfortunately, our group eventually got tired and fell apart to go to sleep

Wow, asking for private showing as well that's actually quite disturbing

Actually, my friend says he's gotten requests to dance his ele naked outside in hi-res on multiple occasions. It is pretty creepy.

Classic bash.org :P
FYI, you can use 127.xxx.xxx.xxx, where xxx is any number between 0 and 255.
127.208.54.7 looks more realistic, but works the same.

hahaha bash me and my friends used to make up fake conversations to put on there. great stuff though..

*snork!* Damn. Anyone know how to get that burning milk sensation out of one's nose?

Okay, if this is a BDSM thing, it doesn't belong in the game. Too, if he was genuinely familiar with that community and their principles on consent issues, he'd know exactly why he should not be behaving this way. Report him to A.net.

That's one of the reasons I'd deleted my day-1, finished-game Ele (the other was the nerf).

Nah not bash I swear to god people are actually that stupid. I've been doing things like that to people forever. Like in yahoo chats we used to do idiot checks every 15 minutes by saying." Hit Alt+F4 to unlock hidden administrator options in chat." It's always fun to play tricks on the technically inept. It's not the first time I've given someone a loopback IP when they threatened to hack me and it's not the first time someone has fallen for it and I guarantee you it won't be the last. I wouldn't be suprised though if there are similar things on bash. you'd be suprised how many people do not know that handy little bit of information about the loopbacks.
