Stupidity, By Baal
UPDATE!
Many of the traits below were first demonstrated by a former Sirocco named Sixes. I have never met a more arrogant, stuck up, and generally irritating person. He never understood how anyone else could be unable or unwilling to do something. He never understood that maybe the makers of NS have something other to do then slave to his every request. He never understood that, in short, the world didn't fuckin revolve around him. Now, he has departed NS, i pray forever. Long Die Arrogance!
Ahhh, few things are as wonderful as stupidity. Not only is it frustrating to all involved, but it makes my fucking blood boil like acid in my veins, and my heart thump like a firing shotgun pointing at the skull of the source of the stupidity. I also tend to get visions of the ball of my palm ramming the nose so far into his skull that people mistakenly think thier a pig when they come to clean up the corpse. i mean..i REALLY hate stupid people. =
So you ask yourself, "how
does this affect NS?" Ahh, i'm glad you asked. You see, i've
found that NS is a grand place for demonstrating the depths of
human stupidity. I'll do a nice little list of the ways below;
but first a disclaimer:
There is a diffrence between "i'm stupid as a sack of shit,
from which i no doubt crawled from", and "I'm from a
country that speaks spanish/german/norweigian, so I dont sound
like a rhoades scholar; but i dont do stupid things or act like a
moron habitually". This rail isn't against the second type;
because i've been in situations where people didn't speak
english, and i had to use my hack-eyed knowlege of another
language to communicate. nope, this one goes out to the genuinely
stupid, not just the communication-challanged.
1. The "i'm to stupid to even
consider i might not be right" group
These are the kinda vomit-faced scumbag worms whom seem to
consider themselves god, despite the fact they spend most of
thier time running around in groups killing mobs for great xp,
and yelling insults at others. They usually think that thier
ideas are the only ones that matter, and that whatever they've
just heard is obviously the truth. Why? because thier Stupid.
2. The "I'm a hero, but dont
know where <blank> is, but am to stupid to even TRY to find
it by any means other then bitching for help" group
Let's get something straight here; if your level 60+ and can't
get off your lazy, stupid, and helpless without a group ass to
find an area, you dont really need to evolve that bad - infact i
dare say you dont need anything but a few baton hits up'side the
head and a couple K-volts through Mr. happy to make sure you dont
reproduce.
I wanna say something here - there's a diffrence between saying
"i need a barnesian to locate a mob" or "I need a
gypsy to locate an item" (which is fine - that's why they
have those skills), and "I'm to stupid to figure out where
the Fire Newt caverns are - why doesnt' someone walk me there
like i'm a 2 year old, since i can't have 20 of my clanmates go
kill whatever it is for me" (which should get you batoned)
3. The "I'm so stupid, i have
to brag up how i killed <blank> at level
<blank>"
This might be a real accomplishment, and a show of real skill -
or it might just prove that you happen to be in a class that can
either weaken a mob to the point of being helpless (ala
necromancers and pugs), or one that can use charmies effecitvly
(necros, pugs, ele's, crusaders, gypsys, shaper's, fanatics), or
it might just show that your able to down something with 4
clanmates with only medium difficulty. I mean, honestly, it's not
a real big thing to kill ANYTHING past level 50 as a necro.
Minions rescue, and so long as you have at least one left
standing, you got an even chance of surviving just because it can
pull you out of danger - same goes for Elementalists. So any kind
of "i kick ass because i killed <whatever>" from
these 2 classes in particular should be sent straight to
/dev/null. Ditto for anyone in a group - the added fire power,
particuarly if it's an "idealistic" pairing, can be
extraordinarily lethal (for example a necromancer and an assassin
- one weakens, the other damages and tanks). And besides -anyone
can get lucky.
4. The Gansta rap Bitches
I'm gonna make this one real simple. If you listen to gansta rap
of any kind, and let it influence you in any way (and htis
includes "pimp rap"), you should be shot in cold blood,
in public, on TV, while your family is forced to drink the blood
that spills from the gut wound your gonna die from - in a day or
so. End of discussion.
UPDATE! UPDATE! BDX has been PERMENANTLY BARRED FROM NS! And
there was MUCH rejoicing!
5. Anyone whom levels to hero in
under a month, barring evolved people (whom are at an advantage)
if it's anything i hate, it's some punk bitch making it to level
61 in a month, because his freinds are willing to hold his hand
through it all. I've yet to meet anyone with intelligence, whom
just goes and levels as fast as they can, and doesn't even
consider anything else. It's lame, and it's a sign that your
stupid, and will later fall into the #1 catagory, as well as the
#2 one.
6. Anyone whom logs on as one
class, spends 5 minutes talking, and "decides" they
want to be another - which happens to be felan assassin,
barnesian assassin, or sprite necro.
Oh how i hate trendy bitches. Such people should be Destroyed -
though they usually are in the long run, when they relize that
life isn't easy just because they made one good decision.
This was just a small rant on Stupidity - stay tuned for more later.
