What happens when you play WoW

Ok, I have never posted an E/N thread before but if there was ever a time to post one, now is it.

It all started when I introduced my girlfriend to WoW. I got her in my high end raiding guild thinking she would hit level 40 and then quit. She actually became quite involved, and I helped her with quests and such. She made a priest, which matched with my 60 mage in Tier2+AQ gear quite well.

Anyway, fast forward to her hitting level 60. After some convincing I get her into regular BWL raids in shitty blue and green gear. She is auto'd a lot of gear because all of our priests have pretty much everything they want out of BWL, and she is very happy about this.

It was kinda nice, coming home after work, and sitting in the same room with her, being able to share my hobby. I thought it strengthened our relationship significantly. We talked a lot more, spent more time together, and generally got along better. I should have known that when WoW became the topic of conversations 90% of the time that it might be getting too unhealthy.

After she was geared up a bit, she got used to being on ventrillo and chatting with the guild members. Now, I'm not the passive aggressive type so I made sure all of those little nerds knew that she was my woman, and that we lived together. She had a few puppy dogs follow her around, but nothing too serious. However, I began to notice that her and my guild master had been talking quite a bit in tells. Every time I came in the room she would switch to her combat log so I couldn't see what she was talking about in tells. I thought nothing of it, I used to have a nervous tick like that when I lived with my parents.

Well, one day I came home and she was in the bathroom. I looked on her screen and saw some very... sexual and detailed conversation with my guild master. My heart starts pounding.

I storm to the bathroom door while she's taking a shit and start pounding on it, I screamed "ARE YOU FUCKING MY GUILD MASTER" "ARE YOU SERIOUSLY FUCKING DOING THIS TO ME?" Silence. She knew what happened. She knew she should have logged off when she went to take a shit. I guess it was fate's way of clueing me in on what the fuck was going on.

She came out after about 20 minutes and told me that she had fallen in love with my guild master, let's call him "Tom".

Tom lives about 4 hours from us and we had never met, but she later confessed that one of the weekends she spent with her "parents" was actually at Tom's house. She said they had sex, a lot.

I started crying uncontrollably. What was I going to do? We are in a lease contract for another 7 months, how the fuck can I handle this? I went right to bed and locked the door, she slept on the couch that night. Days went by and we didn't talk much, and she slept on the couch. I stopped playing WoW all together.


I thought I could live out the lease until I heard that she is having Tom over. I fucking flipped. She claimed that she had a right to have people over, just like I did. I had to concede and let her invite this fucktard over. When he got there I just kind of glared at him to let him know I was pissed and not having any of his shit. He doesn't say anything to me and then they go in the computer room and shut the door.

I got to my bed and start to cry.

Then it starts. I hear them fucking. I start going insane with jealousy, rage, and sadness all at once. I don't know what to do. I went to the kitchen and got two Unisom, took them, and passed out shortly after.

That was last night. This morning, I logged on to WoW and deleted my mage in a crying fit. I then kicked my computer so hard that the heatsink fell off of the CPU and smashed into my video card, breaking it.

I guess I'm at a loss. I really don't know what to do. I've thought about killing myself, but I don't think it would be fair to me, or my friends and family... what little I have.
 
yeah...you said it...awful post...terrible and really sad to read...

The guy who wrote this post must be really REALLY Tolerant...as i was reading this post, i was feeling my heart pounding and wondering when he was going to take her woman's head and play basket with it...and i never saw this sentence...

That is a tolerance i will never have...and i respect a lot the author of this text for his mastery in tolerance...

all i wish if this story is true is that this guy is still alive and changed of life...

this story is one i pray to not share one day...as i won't be able to control myself for sure...
 

Oh heh, that's what I get for skimming the forums when I'm on vaca. ::blush:: Funny thing is, when I read it, it reminded me of something I would have read on the SA forums (IE: the one story of the lady that got banned for creating a bunch of accounts to tell a ton of sob stories aka the attention whore).
 
I think the thread is somewhere in the archives, it was posted as a joke in fyad and thats where i saw it, but they really ripped into the guy instead of feeling sorry for him lol
 
aaaaaaaaaaahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhaha
 
People still play WoW? That game was ultra boring after it took me a whole 3 weeks to hit 60.

And regarding the thread... Screenshots needed of g/f and guild leader with crying man in background kicking the shat outta his pc or it didn't happen.
 
See what he should have done is start a new account, as a female, work his way up in the guild, start the same kind of crap with the guildmaster, and hire a "pro" to do the liasons w/the guildmaster. As an added bonus, get the "pro" to tape it, especially if the guildmaster has a wife or g/f on the side and release it on the net, while sending the tape to both the ex and the significant other if one exists.. In fact he'd probably make the $ for the account time by selling the account itself, and the extra money from possibly selling the tape should just be a handy bonus. Then of course he should write a book entitled "Vindictiveness: for fun and profit"

of course that would be probably thoroughly illegal, except for the bookwriting part, but then again I dont think that most people in that situation would care incredibly much about the legality.

But considering the story was from the sa boards and just the sheer absurdity of it im bettin its a fake lol.

THREE weeks to hit 60 in WoW? You're so casual :dance:
 
WoW is boring to me. Too many little 13 year old korean kids running around and yelling "OMG CAN I HAV UR ARMR DAT IS SO COO"
 
.......... I wonder why he didn't just enforce his fist into Tom's face instead of crying over and over?




Or make up with them and have a drinking session.... slip them some roofies and drop them off in the woods?
 
They aren't being insensitive to the fact that these situations do happen, ands are more common than many realize, they are simply responding to the FACT that this one didn't.

First off, this implies that this guy has ever had a girlfrend; much less a hot, live in, game playing female that he will soon be marrying. He stopped short of naming her Lilah, but otherwise he is simply using CRTL+ALT+DEL as his "life".

Now, please note the character flaws... he makes sure he tells off all the little nerds that she is his woman. Because he is a strong manly man, not at all like the shut in, basement living geeks that are all of computergamingdom. No, he has a home and a girl, and breaks faces of those who do not respect.

Until there is disrespect. Now he is a crying little emo bitch. If this happened to you, you might probably would cry. Hell, its traumatic, sure, I guess there are guys who act like that. Yet, I just don't think they post on the internet exactly how many times, or how they spend apparently entire weeks huddled in the bed sniffling. Apparently, this model of a guy subscribes heavily to the Oprah channel.

Somehow, this guy just doesn't add up. Guild Leader, Girlfriend... The stereotypes are "too" stereotype, more like a cartoon, or one of the more poorly written episodes of Law and Order.

Sadly, the big hook is just that they met in a video game. THis kind of thing happens all the time, and meeting ina vdeo game, or online chat room, just doesn't really seem as big a hook as it was a decade ago. It's pretty much the same as the other partner hooking up at work, or with the checkout boy at Kroger, or the popcorn girl at the movie you saw last week. Dating, going steady, getting married... none of that is actually BEING married... guess what, either of you still get to change your mind at any time. If they had been married with kids, it would have been a better hook. No one with divorced parents really feels lightly about that subject, four hungry children and the crops in the field and all that.

He forgot to mention that he sprained or broke his foot when he kicked the computer hard enough to knock off the heat sink. I know from experience... and I keep all computers on top of the desk now. Maybe that is why he was really crying... because his foot hurt... or because he realized he had to buy a new mobo, memory, and processor. By the way, where is he typing this now?

It's a fairly boring, obviously fake, story. So, people try to interject a bit more excitement, you know... help for the next reader... "I read this, and it sucked, so when you read it, imagine THIS going on too!" I mean, the blurb about the professional, sex tape, and blackmail accomplished in one paragraph what the original failed accross in its entirety. Now THAT was entertainment.
 
I don't follow that logic at all. Whether or not it has actually happened seems really fucking irrelevant. You gain absolutely nothing from flaming people posting their stories on the Internet, even if it was all made up. On the other hand, if it wasn't you could end up really hurting someone already emotionally out of balance.

As for the "Guild Leader - Girlfriend" thing, it probaly happens a lot more often than you think. Personally I believe it happens the same way teacher - puppil relationships, or boss - coed, and I know for a fact that a lot of the married couples in my old live guild actually met through EQ, and that it's still happening.

And as for people not hooking up at work any longer, what's that about? Do you think people no longer hook up at work? I think it's safe to say that generally your chances of having a lot of things in common with people you work with (especially if you have the same education) is far greater than the average person you meet at street. So you meet a guy you have a lot in common with and is able to talk to about things that happen at work/is there to support you, if you're being harrassed by a customer/your boss/other coeds etc. And apart from that I know of people who have hooked up with their WoW Guild leader, so yeah.

And simply because you broke your foot from kicking a computer, it really doesn't mean that he has to. He could have kicked it with the bottom of his foot, instead of his toes.

But in essence, what do people really have to gain from flaming the original poster, compared to the damage they could cause if it wasn't fake.

If it's fake, you make it clear that the loser needs to find a better waste of time than making shit up. It's not like messageboards have an overabundance of reasons to read them, and just "letting it go" like you're suggesting is why they don't. HUR HUR HUR, TEH INTARNET'S SUPPOSD 2 B STUPD! Yep, that's led us to a real utopia of communication so far.

If it's not fake, you make it clear what a gigantic pussy the guy is. When someone goes through this and just lets it happen, then sits and cries a lot, they're obviously more interested in crying than anything else. Might as well give them something else to cry about, and you might as well take great pleasure in it. What, like it's going to damage his clearly stable personality? He consented to letting someone come in his house to fuck his girlfriend. While he listened and cried. I'm not too worried about upsetting the delicate and refined balance of that thought process.
