Arkaine is back in Azeroth!

About bloody time, too.

Anyway, within five minutes of logging into Burning Crusade (and logging into the game in general for the first time in about 11 months or so), I had deleted EVERY SINGLE ONE OF MY CHARACTERS ON ALL REALMS. Including my Undead Mage, Arkaine, on which this blog was originally based.

Then, I created an Undead Rogue on the server of Smolderthorn (an old realm where my old level 22 Undead Warlock named Bloodspire was part of the PCPowerPlay Forums guild known affectionately as "Yellow Boots"). From the get go, everything was ruined by horrible lag. In fact, I was disconnected three times that night. Subsequently my now-level 8 Undead Rogue named Sorgen was deleted.

I then set my eyes on the server of Boulderfist once more, and started a Blood Elf Mage, once again named Arkaine.

And there was a VERY noticeable lack of lag. Actually, a very complete lack of lag. I was understandably impressed... until just two minutes later.

My first experience as a Blood Elf led the players around me to assume I was completely new to the game (it should be noted that I have played WoW since early 2005). While that was perhaps ever so slightly disconcerting although shruggable, my fears that the addition of Blood Elves to the Horde might attract the wretched kind of players who assume the form of FEMALE Humans/Night Elves simply to run around not wearing ANYTHING and gasp at the apparent sexiness of their avatars (and in some cases, even masturbate to them dancing on-screen) finally materialized when I met a female Blood Elf standing in one spot. She was wearing NOTHING.

Alliance player for sure.

Thus, I initiated conversation.

Arkaine>> Play Alliance much?
Him>> yeah
Arkaine>> so... your character's gender is female, your race is Blood Elf, and you're not wearing any armor bar that dagger holstered on the side of your avatar's bikini?
Him>> so?
Arkaine>> The Horde has no need of your wretched kind. Go back to the Alliance, nub.
Him>> QQ?
Arkaine>> But what's there to QQ about?
Him>> stfu
Him>> horde sucks anyways
Arkaine>> Horde is for mature players only.
Him>> ROFL

I'm surprised he didn't put me on his Ignore list.

Ten minutes later:

[General]Arkaine>> Any supersaiyans around? :P
[General]Player>> lol prolly

Later, when logging off, I quickly made my Blood Elf Rogue and named it Sorgen.

I'm hoping to divide equal time between Arkaine and Sorgen. The latter is probably going to have a long-term career as a level 29 BG twink, but Arkaine's definitely going to Outland.

More YouTube Comment Battles

Ah, I was browsing through the comments on Emmalina's latest (at the time of writing, anyway) video, entitled Lipstick Feminism. I found an unsavoury few which served as perfect examples of the results you get when some 12 year old little shit logs on with the sole intent of spamming negative and completely unnecessary morsels. Naturally, I couldn't resist replying to them.

bong12 says: bitch shut the fuck up
Tacitus666 (myself) says: Cry me a river.

Fine, let's move on.

smackdowncommencing says: a bitch posting a video about bitching...shocking ! Hey, maybe I should fuck my wife on webcam so I can share our love with youtube ! You're fucking stupid you ugly little cunt
Tacitus666 says: Soz but you need to keep your 12 year old arse off the internet unless you can actually show you have people skills by talking in a civilized manner. Grow up.
bong12 says: tacitus why dnt u go fuck yourself ya fuckin wanker
Tacitus666 says: I'm not surprised someone as irresponsible, young and immature as yourself couldn't come up with something better to retaliate with.
smackdowncommencing says: please stop trying to type while your head is shoved up your ass, thank you
Tacitus666 says: On the contrary, my head is planted firmly on top of my neck and my arse is seated where it is normally supposed to be. Oh how I feel sorry for you, due to your notable lack of both maturity and logical thought. The internet is no place for either of you. Good luck with future prospects.

Note their language. They actually proved me right. Way to go!

And before you label me a loser for even engaging in such unnecessary activities as arguing on the internet, please notice how my posts on this blog are few and far between. That alone should suggest things like this are done perhaps once or twice a month, thus being considerably rare in occurrence. How am I a loser for doing this in the space of ten minutes every month or so?
