Just Play the FREAKIN' Game

Seriously. Just shut up right now.

Zip it.

If one more stupid person asks me how to unlock this or how to get to this new place, someone is going to die. And I don't mean fed to a dragon kind of die.

We just put in the new content. JUST.

I mean would you people actually try and do something, hell anything, on your own?

Right now, there are people who are combing through the new data files, so that they can post all the information about the new content.

Either wait for them or find out by your damned self.

STOP SENDING GM CALLS ASKING FOR INFORMATION!

STOP IT!

NOW!

STOP NOW!

Seriously. The point of a damned video game is to play it and win on your own.

Sure, ask in game for hints or help, but do you really have fun running through a checklist you printed off after someone else mined through the data files?

Is there victory in that?

Today, I came so close so close to just running a magnet over all the servers and watching Vana'diel (and all of your whining little characters) disappear.

After the umpteen thousandth GM call asking for new Treasures of Aht Urhgan info, I decided to check the call queue.

1,493 GM calls pending across 18 servers.

That was when I snapped. Game on, bitches.

I'd never actually seen 1,493 players in Mordion Gaol before.

[GM]Dave>> Okay, you have all been brought here for being too stupid.
[GM]Dave>> You wanted a new area. Here's your new area.
[GM]Dave>> Try out the new quest "Don't Drop the Soap."
[GM]Dave>> Are there any questions?
Player573>> Uhh... when can we get out?
[GM]Dave>> There is no "out" anymore.
[GM]Dave>> There is only "in" now.
[GM]Dave>> You will come to accept it.
Player882>> Let us out!
[GM]Dave>> Remember, kill someone right away.
[GM]Dave>> That way you won't end up somebody's "bitch".
[GM]Dave>> Have you ever seen Prison Break?
Player1265>> You can't do this to us.
[GM]Dave>> I love that show.
[GM]Dave>> Scofield is awesome.
Player137>> plz let us out
[GM]Dave>> Did you just say "plz"?
[GM]Dave>> Poor grammar is frowned upon here in D block.
[GM]Dave>> Meet your new cellmate.

Jormungand uses You Got a Purdy Mouth.
Player137 takes 32,841 points of damage.
Player137 was defeated by Jormungand.

[GM]Dave>> Are there any more questions?
[GM]Dave>> I take your silence as cautious acceptance.
[GM]Dave>> Or the fact that I disabled your tells.
[GM]Dave>> Can I help you with anything else today?

If you have already placed a GM call asking for help with the new things we added, just unplug your computer and eat your video card. You'll be saving us both some trouble.

Unless you'd like Jormungand as a cellmate. As I understand it, he can be quite gentle when he wants to be.

Taruaresecks,

You fail at life.

Can I help you with anything else today?

Drowning is too good for them. Freezing their drowned corpses is too good for them. Making them listen to lectures on ethics by taruaresecks is... no, that's too cruel, even for me.

Fire. It's the right thing to do.

Or lonely orcs.

Or lonely orcs on fire.

o.O

Did Taruaresecks just imply that customer support was an easy job?

Your punishment is two hours on AOL's support lines with no bathroom break!!! You will be handling all the EverQuest calls. ALL OF THEM. From "I can't find the disk, all I have is this shiny thing, how the hell am I supposed to install this game," to "omgomgomg thiz Wofl just ninja'd our raid! mek him give meh muy stuffz back NOW!"

The fact that AOL has NOTHING to do with EQ is part of your punishment. Enjoy.
