Not Another Whiner…

I was on Navitas, on my way to do yet another run in Heroic Sethekk Halls for the Raven Lord. Since I couldn’t get a portal, I had to use the portal to the Blasted Lands and fly via Hellfire Peninsula.

Once I got there, I saw that the Alliance were capturing the fortifications. So, I did what any self-respecting Horde would do and went to investigate. I found a couple of Level 60-odd Druids and promptly killed them both with a couple of quick Mangles.

I then Prowled and waited to see if they resurrected. Which they did. Twice. So I killed them both a total of three times at the Overlook alone.

One of them, Boomheal, was able to get on her mount and fly away. So I followed her, forgetting all about why I was actually there. I killed her one more time (after dying to an attempt to Claw her while she was in mid-air) and then went into Hellfire Ramparts to lose my PvP. I then had to go AFK for a while.

Once I got back, I found this waiting for me:

I knew this was Boomheal, as I didn’t chase the other Druid halfway across Hellfire Peninsula just to get a cheap kill. I tried to reply, but as you can see from the screenshot, Keepclear was offline.

So, I logged off Navitas, created a Human named ‘Complainmore’ and set Boomheal a few logic bombs.

Yeah, I showed her. When will people realise that flagging yourself for PvP is an invitation to die? If you can’t accept that, don’t do PvP. It’s simple, really.

All Hail Conan, The Lord of Linen!

Oh my GOD, this new realm is SO DAMN QUIET! I’m so happy I am able to post an update. I’d move to another realm, but money is a bit tight just now. You know how it is.

Anyway, I was on Luxxoria, selling my stuff at the Auction House when I see a player named Conanthewarr (hereafter referred to as ‘Conan’ selling Linen Cloth at 4g a stack. Since I had twelve stacks of linen on the Auction house at 7g 50s each, I cancel all the auctions and put half of them back up at 2g each.

Conan promptly buys all four, so I put another four up, again at 2g a stack. This time, I advertise in Trade. What happens next is rather … pathetic.

You read that right, folks. He did indeed call me a ‘fag’ for undercutting him.

I didn’t really report him. I was actually hoping he’d panic. I was rather disappointed when he didn’t. But I’m right. I did get a three hour ban for telling someone to ‘fuck off and man up’ (or something along those lines). So by rights he’d get the same for calling me a ‘fag’.

I put him on ignore after this. Just to piss him off even more, I cancelled my Linen auctions (again), and put all eight stacks up at a 1 copper starting bid.

Conan didn’t take bid. However, when I checked a few hours later, I saw that several people had undercut him on cloth. I wonder how many of them got an angry whisper, or an angry in-game mail?

There are no rules against undercutting people on the Auction House. If there was, nobody would be able to make any money.

Which is something Conan really needs to learn.

I am currently farming Justic Points on Holiestcow in order to get one of these. I was put into a Lost City group. There were two Death Knights from the same realm as DPS. One of them, Aëtÿr, soon turned out to be a complete dick.

It all started when we got to the first boss. I was clearing the trash from around him, when Aëtÿr starts moaning about something.

I have no idea what he’s on about, but I assume he’s not happy with the fact I am clearing trash first, rather than pulling the boss.

Since I’m not pulling the boss (given that I am still fighting trash), Aëtÿr decidees to pull the boss himself. The healer suddenly quits the group so naturally, we all die.

When he said ‘DK!’, I assume he was trying to blame the other Death Knight for pulling the boss. But before I died, I targed the boss, and he had Aëtÿr as his target. So it’s obvious to me who pulled him.

Since we’re without a healer, we decide to wait on another one joining us. It also gives us a chance to whittle away the 9 minutes before we can kick Aëtÿr.

The rogue wasn’t interested in ressing him, and I refused to do it on account of his severe attitude problem.

Is he seriously threatening to report me for not ressing him? That’s hilarious…ly pathetic.

In the time he’s spent whining, he could have ran back four, maybe even five times. It’s not like Lost City is hard to find from the graveyard.

I never did ask him why he couldn’t just run back. Hard to believe that this is Screenshot Number 8, and it’s only been three minutes since he started this crap.

I have no idea why he’s blaming the other Death Knight for pulling, when I know for a fact it was him. And adding smiley faces to your requests for a res doesn’t make up for you being a complete and total dickhead.

At this point, the Rogue initiates a vote to kick Aëtÿr. Seems like he had to wait less time than I did. Unfortunately, I didn’t vote in time, and it failed.

OK, these two are definitely friends with each other. And I don’t know why he’s telling me to stop. He must be getting panicky over the thought of being kicked.

What the fuck is this now? I think he means ‘come here and give me a res, pussy’, instead of ‘come here and give me your pussy’.

At this point, I am able to initiate my own vote to kick Aëtÿr. But it failed. I guess the rogue either didn’t vote ‘Yes’ in time, or he pressed ‘No’ by mistake.

Why kick me? Unlike him, I’ve done nothing wrong. I wonder if Aggramar is this battlegroup’s version of Frostmane? In that all the dicks are there.

This is just getting sad now.

Where’s that ‘Leave Party’ option?

Oh, they beat me to it. I have my suspicions that if I had voted quicker when the Rogue put up his own vote, this charade would have ended long ago.

When it came to kicking me, Aëtÿr would have had one vote for ‘Yes’, since it was clearly him who started it. His mate would also be ‘Yes’, and the Rogue (hopefully) voted ‘No’. Since I don’t get a vote, and we were still without a healer, that would have been 2-1 in favour of kicking me.

Anyway, it’s over now. Hopefully I won’t see either of them again. And if I do … I’ll see what happens. Maybe next time I’ll get enough screenshots for a ‘Supreme Fail’?

Ninja Power!

Whoa, has it really been nearly a fortnight? I guess my new realm and battlegroup really are low on the number of idiots.

To be honest, I took the screenshots for this story on Jun 26th. I then forgot about them until now. Sorry about that.

Anyway, I was healing a random Well of Eternity group. We killed the first boss, and he dropped Girdle of the Queen’s Champion. The tank, a Paladin named Ducapower, promptly performs a Need roll for it.

Nothing wrong with that, you might think. He’s got an upgrade for this old belt. But it’s only after he links his old belt that I think something isn’t right.

Last time I checked, Vicious Ornate Pyrium Belt was a PvP belt for Holy Paladins. So, I decide to look Ducapower up on the Armoury, using the app I have on my mobile.

My suspicions are indeed correct. His off spec is Holy, and he rolled on a Retribution belt. So he’s just a ninja who thought he could pull the wool over our eyes.

But unfortunately for him, I wasn’t fooled.

Oh, and just to prove my point, here’s his armoury shot, as it was on the day the screenshots were taken.

There’s no point in trying to ninja when I’m around.

Did I Kill You? Deal With It.

Geo Says: With Midsummer just begun, I was making my way around the zones honouring the Horde fires, and extinguishing the Alliance ones. Aim was with me, and he had to do the quest to sneak into the Twilight camp and gather intel.

I got there first and, since I thought nobody was around, I decided to kill the NPCs you are supposed to eavesdrop on. This atttracted the attention of a Worgen Druid named Windmor, who was stealthed behind me. He didn’t like the fact I had just killed the NPCs, even though they are on a quick respawn timer. So he proceeded to use emotes such as /laugh and /go. I tell him /no, and kill the NPCs again. This makes him flag himself for PvP. When I don’t take the bait, he uses his crab disguise.

While he’s using said disguise, I jump him. Aim also joins the fight, though Windmor kills him. However, he is weakened to the point where I kill him a few seconds later. I ressurect Aim and we heal up.

Aim Says: He only killed me because I forgot to stun him. If I did, I would have been able to heal up a bit. Oh well, live and learn. Or in this case, die and learn.

Geo Says: A few minutes later, Windmor ressurects. We take advantage of his weakened state to attack him again. This time, Aim lands the killing blow.

While waiting for him to ressurect again, I get a whisper from a Blood Elf Paladin named Tiriss. It turns out that this is Windmor’s Horde alt.

Basically, he’s upset that Aim and I killed him, and thinks it was an ‘unfair’ fight. I remind him that there are no rules in PvP, and he offers to change into his PvP spec and gear.

Aim Says: Sure, he killed me. But Geo killed him, so I don’t know why he’s being so smug. Plus, I got him back a few minutes later.

Geo Says: So I have ‘shitty tank talents’? Funny, they didn’t seem so shit when I was kicking your ass with them.

Aim Says: I whisper him as well and tell him that if he can’t take dying in PvP, he shouldn’t do PvP. It’s as simple as that.

Geo Says: I put him on ignore after this. A few minutes later, a Blood Elf Hunter joins us, also doing the quest. Together, we attack Windmor again, but since he was on a flying mount, he was able to get out of range.

Anyway, the lesson here is: If you do PvP, you will eventually die. And when you do, don’t cry about it. It won’t get you anywhere, and it makes you look pathetic.

Let’s just hope Windmor takes this lesson to heart.
