I think your reference is more apt for this case. Sisyphus is famously used as an analogy for the pointless toil and suffering of human existence in general by Albert Camus. Prometheus' punishment feels more specific, and more gruesome and more primal.

I knew he stole fire from the Gods. Somehow I always assumed he got away with it.

I did not go back to lurking. I am not talking shit for lulz in RNF. I apologize. I promise to go back to my popcorn now.

I like the punishment of Tantalus for this thread - surrounded by a pool of fresh water and a tree heavy with fruit but whenever he reach's for it, it is always just out of reach. Forever thirsty and hungry while what you crave is right in front of you. Cucked eternally

I bet he doesn't even have a wife. Just wanted to say something to divert attention that he was leaving without finding a replacement or giving a heads up previously. Well played

You might be on to something. People can devise very elaborate schemes to avoid confrontation in MMOs.

Person no longer wants to XP with a group; instead of saying they must log - they say "hey guys wow internet problems think I going LD!" then they /q.

Person agrees to a pixel deal in EC, but then has second thoughts on buying the pixels; Instead of saying they actually changed their mind - they say "Ok man, I got to go to the bank and get the plats, meet you at T1 in 5 mins!" then they /q.

Just a couple of the common scenarios where people create elaborate plans to extract themselves from a social situation they are uncomfortable with.

***Roddypiper probably just thought the XP sucked, and thus created his cucky story just to remove himself from the group!

Posting real life info, such as marriage arrangements confided in game, is considered a bannable offense if I'm not mistaken (even if not true). This poor dude getting shamed for no good reason except you had a juicy tidbit of gossip you wanted to share on the forums in hopes of getting some laughs.

RL info? Gossip? What RL details are we viewing there I'd like to know. Aint seen the guy on the game since that day (over a year ago), I guess his wife's BF kicked him off p99 indefinitely. If that's the case, probably not such a bad dude afterall.

***And for the record, I did get a chuckle out of the guy's explanation as to why he had to leave the group. Hope that makes you really mad too, Rygar. Simmer on that bro.

He maybe didn't want his RL marriage arrangement to be viewed publicly by 10,000 people perhaps? Its not rocket science here Lhance. You are one of the worst spin doctors on here, careful Samoht / Alarti, Lhancelot is coming for you.

I actually question the validity of his story but nonetheless found it an interesting one! Glad you found it interesting too.

If he was seeking confidentiality he probably should have refrained from sharing his "story" with 5 total strangers.

Unless this is the real Rowdy Roddy Piper (who passed in 2015), I am pretty sure no "RL info" was posted about anyone. Good try though mate.

Continue on your snitch hunt crusade though, it's touching.
