| Venting.. because some people are just A*Holes [LJ Repost] |
*part of a series of posts I am cross-posting. I'm finally within the MySpace timeline, which means these posts will be dated the actual date/time they were originally posted*
I should not have even started this conversation, should have just walked away. I dunno if it's a product of too many of my friends being on hard times or what but maybe I was just spoiling for a fight. I do really like MMORPGs 90% of the time. It's a nice way to waste some time, I like the adventure and quests, and spending time with friends. Note that "friends" is the operative word here, I almost never will group with people I do not know, and the main reason has always been I seem to have the unfortunate luck to find the one 12 year old with a god complex. Someone first of all comes up and kill steals my quest monster "a sand monitor" then has the audacity to ask me to group. I politely decline for the two previously mentioned reasons by saying "No thank you" and start to walk away, because I know from past experience if I hang around this idiot is gonna keep stealing my kills and keep hounding me until I group with them. As I am walking away they ask me to duel. I never duel, it's lame and pointless and for people with small penises (ok in which case you would think I would like it since i have no penis... but I digress). I click the "no" and continue walking away determined to get away from this loser and then they OOC (so the whole game can hear it) "sissy" and then says "run woos{translate as wuss}". While I admit my typing is as bad as the next person; something about this {poor spelling, no punctuation, and never used any capital letters} indicated I was probably dealing with a teenager here. Why they were not in school is a whole different mystery. Normally I would be way too dignified to even justify this with a response; but like I said I must have been spoiling for a fight because I ended up giving them a private tell "What are you fucking 7? I am not running away, I was already walking before you even challenged me. I just do not like grouping with people I do not know". So of course idiot child continues their uneducated rant "ohh poor baby" "u arent ne good so fucking get over it". I really should have stopped, but suddenly felt compelled to try and mother this idiotic kid and maybe teach them some respect. (Meanwhile on chat channel the same person is having an argument with some other person on who is a noob and who is not a noob and they both have stupid teenybopper spelling and sound like they have a 3rd grade education... but again again I digress). I say "So do you normally harass people you do not know for no reason? I suppose you think it is funny? FYI I don't group because I have a 7 month old kid and it is not fair to the rest of the group that I constantly have to go AFK to take care of her. I also do not duel because I often play with one hand which makes it difficult for me to chainspell, and I just don't like dueling in general. Next time before you give someone a hard time you may want to consider their feelings and their circumstances". I think they felt a little bad.. but not really because they continued to act like an idiot: "i didnt harrass i was wanting a freindly duel or group" (Yeah your actions so far could in no way be considered harassment... nope.) "well poor guy" "i do to" (Yes the typo is here purposely that is what this person wrote.. they are also assuming because I play a male character that I am a male, so pretty frigging intelligent there). "and i take very well care of my kid and manage to play" (Oh really? I am sure if you even are an adult and even have a kid, although I am sure you are lying, that you must take "very well care" of your kid in whatever bumfuck West Virginia town you and your cousin decided to get married and have children in, my 7 month old has better verbal skills that this asshole!). I of course kept picking at it... silly me. "What is your issue? I tried to decline your invitation nicely and you are acting like a child?" "no i didntwas trying to get you to duel" Finally they back down and semi-apologize (by saying "have a good day man no harm done") as I was typing this next thing(good enough for me.. I stopped paying attention after I finished)"Yes and then you verbally attack me when I said no, instead of just accepting that someone does not want to do something and walking away nicely. That is all I ask, just accept it and don't make a scene about it. Thank you for apologizing have a good day." CRIKEY!! Now I don't feel like playing anymore.. it was supposed to be relaxing.. and now of course I am so NOT relaxed. |
