Me, being the careless and unthoughtful person I am, decided to get up from my bed and leave my laptop unattended there. This therefore implies that at that point for the duration of the coffee break my character would not be controlled by a human being (!). After nodding my roommate good night and scratching my knee just to discover it was actually my upper thigh that was itching, I arrived at the coffee machine. Now I faced a tough choice: coffee or cappuccino. For a second the thought of a Latte Macchiato crossed my mind. Thinking of all the trouble this would cause I was quick to dismiss that thought. Eventually I settled for a normal coffee. While waiting for my coffee to be done and to my horror I discovered the cause for my itch: a mosquito bite. Eventually, after struggling to regain my composure for a good 23 seconds, I was able to take the now full cup of coffee out of the coffee machine. Daring as I am I decided to take a sip of it. Immediately I felt the caffeine rush into my system. I was alive again. Just in that moment it hit me like a truck: I had left my laptop unattended and therefore my precious Skeleton map I had been using for the past 3 hours was also left unattended! In a complete state of shock and disbelief I started sprinting towards the virtual reality that had been continuing without me. After the first two and three quarter steps I noticed a burning feeling in my right hand. I had spilled my coffee and burned myself. Me, being the quick thinker I am, quickly retreated to get a towel to clean this mess up. Due to the urgency of the MapleStory situation I unwillingly had put myself in I decided now was not the time to be in pain. Wiping one, at most four definitely not more, tears from my face I started making my way towards my laptop again. That is when I saw it. Who was this individual with this very questionable taste in fashion and slightly annoying name? And what was he doing in my map? I decided to buff myself up again. I casted Magic Guard followed by Holy Symbol, Bless and Maple Warrior. It is important to note here that the order of the buffs casted may never be changed. I was once stupid enough to cast Bless first. After getting one shot by a Stump I realized my mistake and learned my lesson. Eventually I jumped off my rope and casted Genesis, the ultimate spell of the modern emancipated Bishop (!!!). 'This map is owned by Zlootin' popped up in the chatbox, quickly followed by 'rekt' written by Zlootin. Adrenaline started to rush through my veins. My blood pressure rose to a point where internal bleeding was no longer a possibility but a given. Who did this guy think he was to taunt me like that after taking my map? Now was not the time for that though. Remembering different prank shows I had seen on the TV a thought crossed my mind: 'It's a prank!!!'. After having my question whether or not this was a prank answered with a 'lol', the brutal reality hit me once again. It wasn't a prank. Me, being the testosterone, caffeine and adrenaline driven individual I am, decided to go all out on him. I thoroughly scanned my mind for possible insults that could do the most damage to this forsaken individual. Nothing came to mind. Realizing thinking wasn't one of my strenghts, I decided to google for 'meanest meaniest meanestest insults to say on the internet to someone I despise very much!!!!'. One word immediately popped up: . A good start, but not good enough. I decided to top it off by adding an 'utter' before it. 'Perfect', I thought to myself. After expressing my endless anger and frustration over the situation with this insult, I decided to wish this lost soul a wonderful day and move on by changing channels and looking for a new map. To my very big (!) surprise I noticed that just about every other channel was empty and decided to leave it at that and tell my leecher there had been an inconvenience and he had to change channels. Thank you very much for listening to my side of the story. Yours truly, Cynicism
Dimitri, I would just like to take this opportunity to thank you and the staff team for the great job you guys do at enforcing the zero tolerance policy. Imagine the chaos and anarchy that would erupt in chatboxes all over the server if it wasn't for you guys!
You're very welcome. We sincerely do hope that your three days off will provide you the utmost time to decide upon a different set of insults that graciously float over the heads of the people you offend in order to avoid repercussions rather than ones that, as you say, would cause chaos and anarchy to erupt in chatboxes all over the server, though I was not aware we had more than one! May your coffee burns heal swiftly and no more than four tears ever slide from your eyelids again.
