Powergaming

Post by Rahjin »

Ok...this is truly funny to me....<br>
<br>
I recieved a nasty tell in game from some guy who said i was a pure powergamer (Amar) because i was walking around him and he didn't see me until i shot a goblin. So i replied that he may need to up his skill points in listen and spot. and he told me that i was as dork and needed to get a life. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rollin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/roll.gif ALT=":rollin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> well anywho, i though that was hillarious...the person shall remain nameless, because they know who they are and i forgot his/her login <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>

*raises hand and mutters something about Rahjin the powerlamer*<br>

:-P<br>

Milton mentioned to me one time that he had a rather interesting conversation with a noob... the noob was asking him how long he could reasonably expect for it to take for him to get to lvl 40....<br>

You know I'm kidding Rahjin. You have been here for so long, that if you were a powergamer, we would have an epic character. <br>
And for me, the person that called you a powergamer, must have thought about the xp the goblin rewards. Thinking XP= thinking numbers = powergaming.<br>

Show yourself, bandit, so we can do a hanging. *thinking; always enjoyed a mug of ale, some chit chat, and ending the day with a good hanging*<br>

Perhaps the player, who has called you this, has not had a chance to stop and -really- talk with any of your characters. It has been fun RPing with them all this time. Don't take his/her comments to heart.<br>

Thankfully I wasn't drinking or I'd have a beverage all over the keyboard and monitor. *still laughing as typing* If Rahjin's a powergamer, Corvus is a gnome. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>

Actually, I think I know who your were talking about, but I spoke to him later after he sent me a tell about you being ooc. I repled with the fact that he'd not seen you enough to realize that you were most likely in character the whole time.

that is probably why i got the nasty tell. if we are talking about the same person. All of my characters have different personalities (Amar, Jaelen, Trent, Sojin'ra, Xondor) but i still don't see how that makes me a powergamer.
