You know, I do have a confession to make; I like drama.
Not causing it, though. I like watching it!
Ah, but not just any drama. Oh no! I, sir or madam, am a connoisseur.
The particular flavor of drama I enjoy is the kind that takes the form of an illiterate asshat that goes over the top in being a complete tool to someone… and the entire incident becomes public.
With screenshots.
I love that. I really do. I love seeing someone be an asshat and get busted and receive the fame they truly deserve. It warms my heart.
For those of you saddened at my immaturity, my petty, vindictive nature…
I do not now, nor have I ever claimed to be a nice person. Please take note.
This last week has been oh, so very good to me.
First, we had this incredible idiot Mage that had actually rolled need on the Commendation of Kael’thas against a Warrior Tank that needed the item.. and the Mage won. And then, no wait, seriously, it gets better, and THEN the Mage rolls on up into the official WoW Forums of his server to post screenshots of his winning the roll, to accuse the TANK of being in the wrong for being upset!
Ah, the resulting smackdown warms the heart. The idiot realized too late the tragic error of his actions, and deleted his post, but fast-acting forum readers had already captured it… they knew they had pure gold on their hands. They quickly reintroduced his entire post in the first reply comment, to last forever and ever, Amen.
Random people in the forums start the whipping, but when his own guild comes into the discussion to announce they have /gkicked the mage, ahh…..
I am a horrible person. /glee!
But wait! There’s more!
On the latest Guildwatch on WoW Insider, I found an entirely new epic drama situation, where a guild officer got /gkicked because he rolled on a boot drop from Chess against the alt of a co-GM… and won the roll. And immediately thereafter, he got /gkicked by the co-GM.
Now, this alone would be funny… obviously the guy is better off out of that guild with that kind of officer at the helm.
But it gets better… the guy that got /gkicked, Shakkra, got whispered a lot from the idiot that did the kicking, Krazyhunter… and he took screenshots. Screenshots that appear at the very top of the Guildwatch article.
Grats, Krazyhunter. Welcome to your own personal 15 minutes of fame. Lol.
Lord knows gearing alts in Karazhan is srs bsns.
The whole thing would still be minor league, if it weren’t for the flamewar that takes place in the Guildwatch comments, starting almost immediately, as Shakkar himself answers questions as to what happened.. in a nice, friendly mature manner… and other illiterate asshats from the guild that are friends with Krazyhunter try to flame him.
There is just something so refreshing in reading a well-written, expressive writer being flamed by an ignorant, illiterate asshat. Because you KNOW what all the other readers are thinking… “I don’t care who’s right… that guy is stupid. QQ more, you amuse me.”
Hey, if you’ve got more examples of this kind of drama, let me know. Please!
I’m such a sad, sad person. But I can’t help it! I need moar!
Just, please… not in my guild.
I’m curious about your thoughts on some of the things I’ve done as special feature kinda stuff, so I put a poll on the left sidebar.
