Read this and be amazed, saddened and amused.

I'm making a seperate thread devoted entirely to this link, which I stole wholeheartedly from the "who's who" thread. It deserves discussion.

This may have already been brought up in other threads, but I haven't seen any, so who cares. Besides, I think people on this forum are getting sick of having nothing to comment on except a vegetable woman.

I read that the other night in a spate of boredom, actually. :p

I think some people take their gaming a little too seriously...

Wow, something interesting at last! :D

Funniest. Shit. Ever.

I remember reading this story. One of the internet legends.

Awesome story, I must say.

Years ago I played EQ on the pvp server (rallos zek) and ended up being pretty well-heeled.

After becoming rather well known some accomplices and I would run 'contests' for the noobs where they had to collect as many of these orc belts as they could (which you could turn in to an NPC and get lots of exp for low lvl characters) and regardless, one of my freinds would be declared the winner.

I've not trusted contests or sweepstakes ever since.
