WoW = same old as every other MMO out there. I wont get into my long winded discussion on how blizz is just banking on everyone elses success instead of thinking up something original, and its sad really seeing how blizz is such a mega game company, every game they make goes gold

im not a hater, i played the beta. im just a very big MMO fan and its sad to see the crap they churn out these days just cause the genre is popular. soon enough some unknown game company is gonna take some risks, make something ORIGINAL, and it will destroy all the cookie cutters out there. I still play Asheron's Call, probably the most original MMORPG besides EQ (every other game is a copy of EQ in some way), and its a great game but ive been playing for 5 years and i kind of want something new

I'm going to make up some other acronym and say it's great: WHOOO!!! AFRN is da bomb!!!!

Look guy, make it worth our while to read your posts, and add in any info, like what your insipid acronym is.  If it's world of warcraft, dont go "WoW is great!!!!!! Man I'm cool!!!"  Maybe I should just completely avoid your posts, but who knows maybe you might come up with something worthwhile.

I had the WOW 97 and WOW 98 CDs and I thought they were pretty good. Good sampler if you want to check out the best of contemporary christian music (which has a whole different set of artists than you are probably familiar with).

Oh no, some one just said 'noob' on the BYOAC board...
You know what that means? This board will soon be invaded by l337 sp33king t33ns.

Drew Karee is going to switch from political threads to angsty teen poetry.
"Bush won,
I can keep my gun,
so I can blow my family away,
hip hip, hooray!"


Peale is going to start writing arcade controls fan fiction.
"The happ super stick was shocked by the competition's superior 8 way directional ability. 'I must now power up!' The super stick thought. Where was legolas and Goku when he needed them?"

Saint is going to hold an ARCADE cosplay, and unfortunately end it early since no one can distinguish which are arcade games at the convention, and which are humans. The number of resulting sexual harassment suits will be enourmous.

And finally, we will be reviewed by SomethingAwful's weekend web, sealing us forever as a lame internet forum.

Kick 'em in.....the other knee

Kobold Kobold he's our man

Get someone who knows what the hell they're doing
and stop wasting our time

Zakk, I think the reason you can't stop checking out his topics are the same as mine.....it's like watching a train wreck, you wanna see WHAT exactly is the bad thing happening  ;)

OK lads, move along now before I run ya all in fer lollygagging  :police:

Hey, I know someone posted the link, but I'm so self-important I can't be troubled to click it

What's an MMO? 

Why is WOW WOW? 

Have I wandered into the midst of a D&D flame war or something?

Dammit, I'm evidently a noob, and still don't know how to talk in noobie!  Hmm, let's see, must be an easy way of doing this... aha!
http://ssshotaru.homestead.com/files/aolertranslator.html

To be perfectly honest, I clicked the think because I actually thought young 'un there had discovered Wizard of Wor and was enjoying it! I had to look up the acronym to figure out what he was on about (and hey, I loved Diablo, but had no idea the warcraft fanchise was still so strong) 

Why is it that in my day acronyms were all used to keep from swearing out loud?  SMF, CS, FO, LMMNS and so on.  Maybe I should have hung out in the AV department after school with the cool kids instead of hanging out in alleys.  Ah well... :police:

soapboy, you got owned. its best not to insult the resident veterans of this board with your 1337sp33k. WoW is crap, and if you dont realize this after a few months of playing, then im glad you stay there because it will mean less fanbois in the next game that is actually good.
