I'm pretty sure the part about where this thread belongs is a red herring, but as for whether it's okay for him to write that way since his point got across: flowery language isn't just bad because it obfuscates what your point is, but also because it's pretentious, annoying and not concise. Like, honestly his post is about 20 times longer than it needs to be and extremely painful to read.

I mean, how silly is that?

We talking 'bout Crushbone!

Not Unrest. Not Lower Guk. Not the Plane of Fear. Crushbone. We talking 'bout Crushbone.

Yes, as ridiculous as it is to have a dispute over Crushbone thats not what this is about. I was led to believe that this person was the leader of a very influential guild. Which worried me, as I would like to continue playing the game in peace. I am seriously questioning the legitimacy of Trake's claim that he is Durison. Hopefully Durison will post to put the issue to rest.

It's already been pointed out that this Trake person is not Durison earlier in your thread - read this post:

Wow bro - The only ALT I have is Probspot and he is a level 38 Necromancer. Also, I would not be leveling in crushbone regular style. I would be powerleveled by my wife who is a 50 druid. I wouldn't waste my time. Whoever this guy is must be a hater [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Default Grudges

I was in the zone when the schizophrenic in question began ranting about his wallet being gone or the Trainer being "stolen." I found it strange that someone would put that much time and effort into spamming the zone about what he considered a mortal wound to his ego, since that wound was suffered in Crushbone of all places.

When I offered him the advice to do a "/who all cares" and tell the resultant names about the offence, he briefly turned his nerdrage in my direction. I was impressed by his use of /who to find out my guildname before he began to slander others in my guild who had allegedly wronged him in the past as well. He obviously carries some vicious and heartfelt grudges so beware of future trains (in the name of justice of course) if you cross his path again.

Do not worry about any reputation being ruined since no one really cares what happens in Crushbone or GFay. Just enjoy the game and brush the encounter off. The squabble is about important as a run-in with the neighbourhood catlady.

Ha! Been a long time since i have seen that phrase...

I can just imagine the color fading from his face, as he stares at the screen, when the meaning of that sunk in.

BTW: I am Loke, #1 monk on the server. Anyone have issues with that: bring it on!
:P

No one ever tries to steal my identity on games. Maybe some day...
