Retirement

October 14th, 2009 · 13 Comments

I know I promised a few more posts.  There were things that pissed me off that I swore I’d rant about.  But back in February I stopped playing, and after that it became less and less important to complain about things that I don’t see on a daily basis.  Real life became more exciting than the game, and it has continued to be that way.  Truth is I pretty much gave up all video and computer games.  Which was a pretty major change for a lifelong nerd like myself.  Moving back to Vegas was a big wake up call.  Last time I was here, I had all these plans, all this stuff I wanted to accomplish and I ended up playing WoW all day and night.

So this time around I wanted to actually get out and enjoy myself.  So I’ve only got one thing left to bitch about…

I’m so damn sick of whiny ass raid leaders, that bitch about how hard their job is.  It’s so stressful!  I put in so much time!  I don’t get anything back!  No one listens to me!  Boo fucking hoo!  Man up, it’s a goddamn game.  No one made you play it.  Complaining about being a raid leader is like complaining about being too pretty.  A bunch of people wanted to spend time with you, admired your skills, gave you first pick of loot, helped you pretty much every time you needed it, included you in every group, hung out and talked with you when your real life friends had given up on you ever coming out of your cave and hanging out with them.  You had it made!  You were in nerdvana!  So stop yer bitchin, fuckin pansy!

That should show all of those angry raid leaders out there.  For now this is goodbye.  Even if I wanted to come back, someone hacked my account and transferred my characters a couple of months after I quit, and I didn’t even care enough to get blizzard to restore it.  So, I don’t really have anything to come back to…

Later!

    I feared the worst when you went silent.

    Glad to hear you’re doing okay! The ‘real world’ is not a lie!

    I always had a good time reading your rants. They had a way of standing out as funny and true at the same time.

    Glad to hear that your doing ok, and best of wishes in your post-Wow life.

    ROFLMAO! I recognize those raid leader complaints all too well. Been listening to it for years, and no matter how much I helped - nothing changed.

    It’s been a joy reading all your rants, and with that I bid you farewell.

    The pony I want is the six parts of why the Death Knight is the worst thing that has ever happened to this game…

    For purely selfish reasons I’d like to say, “you fucking wanker!” To get back to society’s version of politeness, I’ll end with “Thank you very much, it’s been a pleasure.”
