* Something Evil is derping around on the internet, finds an image as to how to sucker credulous guys into giving you free stuff, traces it back to the original 4chan thread (nsfw, or for one's sanity), reads whole thread.

Meh. The guys gets a ton of loot, is happy. All the concerned MMO players give away things they can do without and feels like good people, are happy.

Everyone is happy! Es good!
Misko just said that.

I am sad now. I could use free stuff.

You see, this is why I play single-player games and avoid MMOs for the most part. Also why when I do play MMOs I stay away from pretty much everyone - like how I do in real life.

That in turn reminds me that I was feeling kind of down earlier because I was feeling lonely. Well, I guess I just have to get used to isolating myself again. I'm going to be getting my paperwork from the HUD in a month or two and then I'll have to say goodbye to everyone I've known in the past two years because none of them will be able to keep in contact with me and I'll more than likely forget what they even look like within the first week at my new place.

Such is my life, going from one place to another and not being able to keep in touch with anyone. I have exactly one person I will be able to, and that's someone four timezones away who I met in a MUD I no longer play. He hasn't been online in the past three days though so...

This is neither new nor invented by 4Chan. The creepiness extends decades back, I know so because one of my friends did it -_-

It extends to before MMO games existed? Impressive.

First MMO was 1985, though the genre hadn't been titled yet. Text-based mmo's (muds) have been popular since '87, at least, and graphical ones since the mid 1990s (so /almost/ 2 decades for those).

The issue with this particular version of the story is that, obviously, things like Skype wouldn't have been a tool in the manipulation toolbox back then.

Yeah, and saying "I'm a girl lol" in text chat is rather different than doing a fully voiced routine.

Few things are. Still, the fact that it's got such a long history only makes it even creepier.

You have to admire the level of dedication, tho.

I...   I just had a really bad argument with my mom about the obligation to step in when others are doing the wrong thing. I'm really scared right now, I got so upset that I'm shivering and feel pins and needles throughout my body.

Well no it turned out in the end to be a case of miscommunication as I was giving the wrong impression on how I react to people so she got scared, and then I misunderstood her point and blew up cause I felt terrified that she said something that appeared to highly contradict my ideals.

Lies. There is never too much ice cream. Only not enough stomach.

Only a pint? I could easily go through an eighth of a gallon of ice cream before getting ill.
