This entry is a follow-up on me running out of money on my Tauren Hunter.
\nDuring maintenance today, and the 3.2.2 patch being released which broke a few of my addons, I saw this thread in the Suggestions forum, thanking gold buyers.
\nMore like attacking them for what they do. One person caused me to reply by saying “all gold buyers should be permabanned”.<\/p>\n
Yeah I opened up my mouth, telling everyone I buy gold. So what I thought. Dammit, punish the sellers, not the buyers. Shit went downhill after this, with everyone agreeing to this person’s reply about I should be permabanned or uninstall my client and let “real players” play.
\nI eventually gave up when I knew I hadn’t a leg to stand on. So I continued to wait, my head being bothered by that reply. I found out about the patch and attempted to ask when they would fix Spirit Bond from healing you when you’re already at 100% health, when I saw something very scary.
\nA message that said “ACCOUNT BANNED”. Something about that I’ve been banned from posting on the WoW Forum for 72 hours.<\/p>\n
I began to fear the worst. Did this spread to my WoW account? Have what I’ve been doing for years just got trashed all because I admitted to buying gold?!
\nFortunately that wasn’t the case. But I still felt like it wasn’t over. That my account was going to go under review. So far it hasn’t.
\nSo I went back to work on my Tauren Hunter. I was questing down in Shadow Hold, a cave in Felwood. Staring at this small round room filled with mobs.<\/p>\n
I’m trying to figure out how to make this work so I dismiss my pet and get ready to pull, incase the pull goes bad and everyone gets aggroed and they go after my pet, and Feign Death won’t work effectively.
\nFortunately I was able to get the pull right, tried to summon my pet as the mob was spanking me to death, but it said “Spell is not ready yet”.
\nAfter FDing, I attempted again. No message, but no pet. I was shocked to see Revive was working when I only dismissed. Fucking lag.<\/p>\n
Finally my pet shows up. So, the room is cleared. I attempt to do the quest, and a humongous lag spike hits. I get the XP, but not the quest. Since I’ve been banned by the WoW forum, I cannot tell them what happened. I’m thinking “oh god.. they banned my account!”. But about 5 minutes later the Breaking News on WoW’s login screen shows that they know about it and are trying to fix it.<\/p>\n
An hour passes and everything’s up and working again. But now I’m stuck down there. If I got on him, the mobs have probably respawned by now and they would rape me. That’s where Benie came to the rescue (had to hop on him to get him down there) and cleared the room out for me.<\/p>\n
I finally escaped that cave, and was able to turn in the quests.
\nAnyway, before all of this happened, I got on Facepunch and saw others where talking about the downtime, and replied by saying I got banned by saying I bought gold and yadda yadda yadda. Again, shit went downhill as I tried to explain the way I play and why I’m the way I am, and how I don’t need friends.<\/p>\n
Yet this whole ordeal has pretty much killed my desire to play this game. Maybe just for the night.
\nThe thought that killed it was probably how I need to be more sociable. And how I’m emotional about it.<\/p>\n
Duh, yes I’m emotional. There’s alot that has happened since I started playing this game. Joining a guild. Learning the basics. Learning about the boats, instances and shit. Then doing a raid, having it fail because of some tattle-telling rogue Horde, then having the guild leader quit and making you the new leader.
\nThen you quit because no one wants to raid where you want to, to get the guild to practice. You start losing friends.
\nThen you live a life alone, make a Hunter, and get him to 60 without being in a guild, and actually enjoying it. Then you get him to 70, then 80.<\/p>\n
People question you why don’t you got good gear and why don’t you care about good gear. I’m too lazy and like doing things on my own.
\nNo guild = No responsibilities = Me being happy. Yet, I’m not happy. I want someone to make me feel better, that it’s OK for me to do what I do. Usually I won’t turn down a good run in an instance. But I do my best to avoid looking for people, due to what hell I’ve went through in the past. I’m tired of depending on people. Needing people. So I rather just do everything myself.<\/p>\n
And what’s wrong with guilds? I’m not a team player. I can’t stand being bossed around like I’m in the army. And ALWAYS being available when THEY do a raid. Again, why I like being solo.
\nI can’t stand seeing someone getting all the credit for making a badass guild and seeing myself in a pose for some guild photo with the guild leader all high and mighty.
\nAgain, can’t be a team player. I’m a Leo. That makes me a leader, not a follower. Since I suck at both, I’m a rogue. Just a rogue Hunter.<\/p>\n
Before you say “WoW isn’t the game for you. This is a game where teamwork is important”, let me just say there is NO game out there that’s for me! Not even Gmod. Not one game out there I will accept the rules and play the game as it was intended.
\nI don’t PvP. I don’t give a shit about having the best gear. I don’t fucking need an e-penis.<\/p>\n
I just don’t give a shit anymore what anyone thinks about me. If Blizzard permabans my account over something so incredibly fucking stupid as buying gold, so be it. I’ve bought gold for YEARS, and not once did I feel ashamed for it. I still don’t. But this is the first time I’ve mentioned I have. If Blizzard ever used a tracking device, my account would’ve been banned a long time ago.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
