Not going to be the crown jewel in this thread or anything, but I must have been 19 at the time and had been in a guild up and coming into their own. Major stuff was happening and I was on the cusp of being a major player in our raid scene and had ambitions of getting that phat lewt.
We wiped on some trash in CoM and I went on a teenage rant about how everyone sucked and this isn't going to cut it and no one deserved to lick my boot and whatever else I could think of to try and "motivate" them. Well the guild leader kicked me right there and I was crushed. He laid into me good and all my dreams of raid pixels were instantly obliterated. I actually cried IRL and I remember looking over and seeing my face in the closet mirror and thinking how pathetic I was that I am crying over a video game. So yea, crying over this game is the craziest thing I've ever done in the name of Norrath. | ||

It’s all basically a more immersive form of social media. I know plenty of people who would probably have the exact same reaction if someone removed them from Facebook suddenly. | |||

Back in 2001 or so, I met a woman on Everquest (Brell Serilis server) and we hit it off. I was enlisted in the Marines at the time, and like a dumb and young Marine Lance Corporal, I took leave and flew to California for a few days to visit her. Amusingly, she wasn't kidding about being a hot model (she was stunning), but she also ended up being really freaking crazy in person. Like really crazy. Our fling didn't last very long, and looking back all these years later, I can barely believe that I did something so dumb and impulsive. It was fun while it lasted though. I blame Everquest. :-P
