Fun with EverQuest
Okay, for the past week, I've been reunited with my baby, i.e. EverQuest, and have rarely left my desk. I had to start all over again, 'cause my level 56 main character got deleted along with my old account (probably from lack of use). I was wandering around the mines in the beginning and I ran into a guy whose character looked identical to mine. He stopped and said "u look lyke me we shud group." I resisted the urge to correct his horrific grasp on the English language and simply declined his offer. He then proceeded to follow me around for THREE DAYS. Everywhere I went, he was right there asking me to join his party. I declined every single one and started yelling at him for harrassing me. All I wanted to do was get out of the fucking mines! Every time I would go to sit and recover HP, he would sit right beside me. After screaming at him for nearly an hour, he finally got the hint and left me alone. I thought my problems were then over.
I was wrong. After leaving the mines, I headed to Shar Vahl to get to my guild. Fiddling with the camera angles, I couldn't really see where I was going and the next thing I know, I'm stuck in a goddamn fountain. I cursed at myself for a bit, then swam over to the edge and tried to pull myself out. NOTHING HAPPENED. Panicking, I sent out an SOS to anyone in my zone to come and help me. One fucktard walked by, stopped, laughed, and walked away. I made a mental note to hunt the individual down in PvP. Finally, a Game Mod responded to my pleas and fished me out of the fountain with this message: "Mr. Tyers, I have retreived your character "Rhyaki" and left him in the Plane of Knowledge. Good luck on your travels, and try not to fall into any more fountains. I hear it rusts your armour." Naturally, I get the sarcastic Mod. ::sigh:: I really need to stop playing this game. EQ will be the reason I flunk out of college.
