Open Call

Postby moritheil » Fri Jul 09, 2004 12:59 am

I have experienced more drama in the past six hours logged into Sojourn than I have in the past three years of my life - including all manner of real AND fictitious drama, anime, tv, magazines, novels (yes, the entire WoT series, riftwar, Drizzt series, etc), and movies.

I have gone from 51% to level 49 to being level 47 again. My flaming acorns now mock me by tossing out one less per casting of the spell. I have died over and over for no good reason other than that some people abruptly did things that should never have happened, in a manner analogous to your cell phone being possessed by an evil spirit and calling up your ex while you frantically jam the "END CALL" buttons.

I have argued with players, cajoled admins, begged, pleaded, shouted, spewed invective, negotiated carefully, charged in heedlessly, plotted cunningly, and crushed ruthlessly. I have probably lost a few years of my life and gained a few gray hairs.

Despite all this I'm not angry right now. So tell me, how was your day? I GUARANTEE it didn't suck like mine did.

Sounds like Shev saw Mori getting close to 50 and layed the smack down.

Dont worry, Mori. It is still much better to lead a MoriAP, and to spank a group - it is still better than to let them fountainsit and chat. People need to learn, and youre doing an awesome job teaching them what to do and what not to do. Too bad that the people tend to blame the group leaders in case of the spank, which is, in most cases, wrong (Well, leaving aside the cases when you were carelessly charging on Yan-C-Bin, leaving half of the Airplane grid alive. But we still love you, Mori - you just have to have in group somebody who cares to count... ie me! :) - )

Sincerely, Ru.

Well, that was a rather painful object lesson in how information can be important in war.

If you honestly get angry while playing a game, you got some serious issues :p

I dunno, I think if you DON'T get angry playing a game, then the game either sucks, or you're abnormally patient. Course imo there's nothing wrong with being angry, only in acting on it.
