Horrible night, but for the last hour I watched Heroes (no spoilers) and it made it all better. Well, not all better, but at least I no longer feel like killing everyone. Yay no murder?
The game was rough, though half of it shouldn't have affected me:
First half: Spending 1.5 million for .3 skillup. >< While that's horrible horrible horrible it's not going to be exactly abnormal from here on out. That doesn't make it any less frustrating and painful though.
Second half: Caught a Besieged after Eco and Escort. (There had been one earlier in the night, but I wasn't in the mood so I went to Eco instead). People are So Fucking Stupid. Picture this:
Random players: lol wher da NMs at?
General #1: *dies because all the idiots are on the NM*
More players arrive: Where be da NMs?
General #2: *dies because the fucking idiots are all swooning over a NM*
More people: (Pos) NM (Can I have it?)
General #3: *dies because these people are too stupid to live*
I mean gods afuckingbove, why don't people think? "lol if we kill da nm we get more xp lol lol lol!". Yeah, and know what? If the generals die you'll get nothing and we'll lose the damned Candysense again.
You'd think our server had never seen a Besieged NM before. All the damned idiots ignored all the normal mobs to "lol (fighting right now!) NM! (pos) lol", and so the normal mobs swarmed over the generals.
I really hate to be "JP good, NA bad", but fucking hell, NAs really, really suck in cases like this. (No, JPs aren't perfect, but they're a hell of a lot better about this.)
It's a damned NM. You'll get 100-300 more XP for killing it. Is it worth making the Besieged last a half-hour longer and risking more generals?
Dammit. Now I want to kill people again. :P
Oh, and on the theme of idiots: This morning's conversation with a beggar. He doesn't have time to farm! He just wants to... Boy, isn't he going to be surprised! (Yeah, I could have extended the conversation, but I needed to do Hot&Cold so I could go to work.)
