Meicha The Mage - Update


So it's been 15 hours of play time and I am still into my new mage! She is now level 21 and I have to say that leveling her has been the most fun I have had on WoW in months! I guess it must just be the Draenei starting area quests combined with the awesomeness of Gift of the Naru, because I have been having a (fire)blast! (lawl) . . . I have been leveling as fire, and am now level 21. No one's usually on in the guild I am in (which is all people from the town I live in) so it does kind of get lonely over on Thrall sometimes, but thankfully a few Blog readers have added me to their friends lists and say hello every so often, and the server itself seems rather friendly. I was surprised how many times random people have offered me assistance or given me little things to help me make my way on the new server a little easier.

Overall my experiences with Meicha have been pleasant, and I have yet to get grumpy or frustrated with the game while playing her! In fact I have only died once, which is a big change from all the previous mages I have played! Lets hope that keeps up all the way to 70!!
*oh, and I have made another character on Thrall now as well, just for fun! She is Kaylea the NE Druid, and yes I do already have a 70 Druid, but I wanted something to level with my friend*

Here I am in the armory: Meicha

Um, Is That A Bloodtroll Shamaladin? - World of Warcraft

So I am not sure how this happened, lmao, but my roommate logged into his account and for some reason it mushed his Troll Shaman, his Bloodelf Paladin and my Human Paladin (which is on a different account) all into one! I instantly named it a Bloodtroll Shamaladin, haha and we've had some fun joking about it for quite some time now. I thought I'd share seeing as I stumbled across the screen shot today and it still made me laugh. They should definitely add a Shamaladin class! Wouldn't they own???

Is Going Bisexual Now Like Going Blond??


Alright, so I know this does not relate directly to gaming, but this is something I have been thinking about for a while now and wanted to blog about. Are the many lesbian/bisexual female characters that now appear in movies/TV shows and the new hit song "I Kissed a Girl" helping to make it easier for bisexual girls to come out of their shoe closets? Or has society decided that being bisexual is now as appealing as being a blond? Just like so many girls who have dyed their hair to seem more appealing to the majority of guys out there, are girls now claiming to be bisexual for the same reasons? Sure, it is excellent that for girls, being bisexual/lesbian is accepted by the majority of our society today, and it is unfortunate that the same society is not also accepting of guys with the same interests, but why is this?

Most guys share the fantasy of being with two girls at once or having the privilege of watching two girls together, and this is of course known by everyone. Without a doubt this is why our society seems to be content with lesbians, while most still shun gay males. Even look at the names, if a girl likes another girl, she is a lesbian (which is a rather nice sounding word), but if a guy likes a guy he is gay or a homo or worse! So has this longing for girl on girl action spawned the latest fad of girls being into girls?

I recently spent some time browsing Myspace and Facebook profiles. An astounding 33% of the girls between age 14 and 29 had bisexual for their orientation, while another 20% had left it blank. Also, out of all the girls who had straight as their orientation, 4% of them had the "I Kissed A Girl" song on their play list. These are pretty impressive numbers, so are the younger generations now feeling more free to experiment with such things, or are they simply trying to win some horny guy's affections? Of course I can't say for the many Myspace and Facebook girls who claimed to be bisexual, but I can say for myself!

If you tell a guy that you are bisexual, they will always be more interested! Believe me, I've tried it out. I would always leave my "orientation" out of my profiles, not because I was not sure, but just in case I had to tell a guy that I was in fact secretly into girls. I didn't just claim to be bisexual on my profile because as much fun as it was to tell random Internet guys that I was, I knew that my friends would question it. I have noticed now that girls I know who are for sure not bisexual, claim to be online, and whenever "I Kissed A Girl" comes on at the bar, watch out because you're going to get kissed by one of your girl friends!

I really do think that being bisexual does make you appear more desirable to the general public, and therefore more and more girls are claiming to swing that way. Whether girls just tend to like girls more than guys and now feel that it is okay to act on that, or whether deciding to be bi is now like deciding to go blond, without a doubt, being bisexual will make you more popular! Look at all the actresses who have "come out" as bisexuals or lesbians who are now impossibly famous (Angelina Jolee, Ellen, Drew Barrymore), and look at the success of "I Kissed A Girl" by Katy Perry (bisexual) or the popularity of Sex And The City's Samantha or the Showcase Series, The L Word. BEING BISEXUAL IS IN!

There are many articles insisting that being bisexual is not just a trend, and for the girls out there who are having relations with other girls, I believe this is true. However, the fact is that most girls who say they are bisexual (especially online) have never, and will never kiss a girl and like it!

Possible WoW Related Scam?

So I checked my e-mail today, and I saw I had a letter from Blizz that was entitled "Warning: Possible Account Closure" I quickly opened it up, not sure why but anxious to find out what had prompted such a letter. The e-mail said the following:

Greetings,

I read it over a few times, still unsure how any of those things could be applied to any of my accounts. I barely ever play anymore and certainly am not selling gold or characters! I logged into each of the 4 WoW accounts that I have (not all are currently active, lol) to try and see if there was some kind of note on my account or anything, but there wasn't. Then I realized something! The address that I received the e-mail at is not the e-mail address I use for any of my accounts. I did not click on any of the links in the e-mail, but I am wondering if perhaps this letter is a fake and the links go to some virus infested website somewhere! I don't really want to click one and find out, just in case, lol but I was wondering if any of you other WoWers out there have gotten a similar e-mail?? All the links look like they go to the same place if I check their properties, except the last one, which says it goes to "http://by120w.bay120.mail.live.com/mail/InboxLight.aspx?n=592249740" and that it is 55844 bytes, but I have no idea what that could mean! haha... The address it came from looks legit, "noreply@blizzard.com" but it doesn't make sense that I'd receive such an e-mail with that e-mail account and they did spellregards wrong I think... Anyways, if any of you have gotten such an e-mail Or if you have an idea about how Blizz sent me an e-mail at an address that isn't connected to my accounts, let me know! If it's some sort of scam, it seems like it could be a good one and we should let people know about it!

My New WoW Character


Alright so I know I blogged like days ago about beating my WoW addiction, and I do actually believe I have, but I did make a new character nonetheless... I found out that some people I knew had some characters on the Thrall server, so I rolled a new character or two there. I then started reading about all the fun WotLK stuff and found out that it is supposed to be out in December of this year! I had always wanted to have at least one of every class at level 70 by the time WotLK came out, and I am so close to meeting my ultimate WoW goal that it'd be so sad if I didn't do it! I only need to level my hunter (who is level 44), my rogue (who is level 43) and then my newest character who is a mage and that would be a 70 of every class! Of course it would be fun to get my second Alliance paladin to 70 as well (she is 53), and my horde paladin to 70 (she's 62)... but I wont worry about those two until after the others!


My new character's name is Meicha (pronounced Meesha or Myka... i haven't decided yet, lol) and she is a Draenei mage. I figured I'd play the mage for now because she is on the Thrall server and because mages are easy to play without a mouse! (I have to play on my laptop until I get a new screen for my desktop, and my laptop doesn't really have a mouse...) I am currently level 13 and so far I am enjoying her! I thought I'd make this post about her and then have some follow up posts if everything continues to go well! =)

Where I Got The Idea For My Novel

I wrote this up for my website (which I am still working away on), but figured I'd post it here too just in case anyone was interested in my novel or where I got the idea for it. Feel free to contact me or comment if you'd like more information.

I first got my idea for Fateful Course while playing one of my favorite games, World of Warcraft. Those of you who are familiar with this game will understand my explanation. I was rather new to the game and had recently started a Night Elf character. Night Elves are basically like most fictional Elvish races, woodsy and tall. I met up with an Undead Warlock, who was plaguing Teldrassil. An "Undead" in World of Warcraft is basically what it sounds like, a being that was once deceased and has since risen from the grave. Undead and Night Elves are different alliances, but I ended up spending well over an hour communicating with this Warlock through different gestures and had a good time flirting and dancing with the enemy. This encounter is what first got me thinking about two characters from separate alliances falling in love.

I had originally intended Starlight's love interest in Fateful Course to be an Undead wizard, but about half way through I changed Tempest into a human Necromancer, thereby making a more physical relationship between the characters possible. I retained Tempest's creepy vibe by making him very much into raising the dead and other strange things Necromancers do.

Tempest is based very loosely on some people I have known. Very detached manipulative people have always fascinated me, and I have always wanted to create such a character in my writing. Tempest started out as a creepy, emotionally manipulative character who is rather unlikeable, but as I wrote, he evolved into a deep and complex man with such conflicting emotions that I actually became quite fond of him. Because of this, Starlight became quite fond of him as well.

I had always wanted Starlight to be a very strong heroine, but I wanted her to fall for some of Tempest's dark charms as well. Rather than write only from her point of view however, I wanted to show Tempest's thoughts as he worked through his many schemes, thereby perhaps creating sympathy for a rather unlikeable character. Starlight is based on a Dungeons and Dragons character I had played while growing up. She is confident and strong and in complete control when she is in her element, but when she finds herself on unfamiliar ground, she is easily swayed. This flaw, combined with a bit of fate is what helps draw her to Tempest and although she is constantly striving for nobility and honor, she quickly looses her way with Tempest by her side.

I have started many such stories over the years, and when I began Fateful Course a year ago I never imagined it would become my very first novel. It has always been my dream to one day be a novelist, but those dreams had been somewhat forgotten as I grew older. When Fateful Course began pouring out of me I decided that I would finish this story! I never wrote it with any expectations or hopes. I wrote it for me. Whether it is well received or not is irrelevant, the important thing is it has reignited my old passion for writing, and since I have finished it I have already started half a dozen new projects. I just figure, if I wasn't meant to write, I wouldn't enjoy it so much!

If You're Considering Buying WoW Gold...


So I know I have blogged on the prospect of purchasing WoW gold previously, but I thought I would make a quick post about another option I stumbled upon. I haven't had the time to play as much recently, and therefor my previous idea of getting rich by doing dailys isn't working! Of course I personally would never buy WoW gold, but I did start looking into buying something that would help me make a lot of gold!

The average WoW gold price is about $75 (US) for 1000g. Sure you'd think this is a reasonable price to charge if you were the one out there farming, but really to the average gamer, this is way too much! I know I would never pay that much anyways.

Something I would pay for however is a guide on how to make my own gold! Of course it'd have to be actually useful and not just things I already know! So, I did some shopping around online. I came across the Warcraft Millionaire page right away. It had some pretty good reviews so I checked it out. It had a "if you don't like it, return for a full refund" guarantee thing, so I figured what the hell?

I was impressed! There actually were a lot of things I had never thought to try! I truly intended to buy it, read everything I had already figured out for myself, be disappointed and then just get my money back, but I didn't! I was also worried that the guide would be totally useless when WotLK comes out, but the guy actually has free updates for the guide concerning any of the big patches/ expansions!

To say the lest, I was happy with the Warcraft Millionaire Blueprint, hehe! If any of you guys have decided to start saving up for WotLK or have been saving to buy your epic flyer, have a look at the details for this guide! Hopefully it can help you out as much as it helped me!

Best Chainletter Ever

I know this doesn't necessarily have anything to do with gaming... but I am posting it anyways!

Alright so I am sure we have all gotten a fair share of e-mail chain letters in our time, right? There are the ones that threaten you with bad luck for 30 years if you don't send it on to 50 of your closest friends, and the ones that promise you that the love of your life will kiss you seven hours after you forward it to 10 people, but what they all have in common is that they are horribly stupid and are a waste of inbox space! They try to trick you into opening them with titles like "OMG Guess What!?" or "I am moving away!" or something like that, so I got one today that was entitled "Sleepover Gone Way Wrong!" I figured it was a chainletter of sorts, but opened it anyways and as soon as I started reading I couldn't stop! Haha, without a doubt the following is the most hilarious attempt at a scary chainletter I have ever experienced, and as I was reading it aloud to my roommate I could barely get through it because I couldn't stop laughing! I have not changed a word of it, so I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Lol...


One night these five girls were having a sleepover when they heard
~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
chaos at the end of her street.
~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~
~~~~~
they went down to find out what was happening.
~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
they learned that a woman was
~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
raped and the man was on the loose.
~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
so they quickly ran home
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
and bolt everything down.
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
everything settles down for a while
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
then they started hearing weird noises
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
coming from outside.
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
they let their minds go wild
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
so they got scared and hid inside a closet.
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~

the man was really outside and
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
found a window that had a broken bolt.
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
he crept in quietly.
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
the girls were scared crapless.
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
he walked into the room
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
and opened the closet,
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
the girls screamed and ran in separate directions.

~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~

four of the girls went downstairs and

~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~

locked the cellar door,

~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~

that was right above the bathroom.

~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~

He caught the fifth girl
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~

and took her into the bathroom,
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
raped her,
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~


and skinned her alive.
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~


her friends heard her die that night
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~


but couldnt do anything about it.
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
they listened to her scratching the door to get out.
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
in the morning when he had fled,
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
the remaining went into the bathroom.
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
There engraved into the wall was her message:
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
'how could you have let me die'

~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
they looked up to get the tears out of their eyes
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
and saw her flesh dangling from the knife that skinned her.
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
If you dont repost this
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
the man will skin you alive too,
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
because they havent caught him yet.
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
And the girl will make sure you will die,
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
so she can pass on the tale.
~~~~~~~
~~~~~~
~~~~~
~~~~
Fact: A girl died in 1933 by a homicidal murderer.

He buried her in the ground when she was still alive.

The murderer chanted 'Toma soto balca' as he buried her.

Now that you have read the chant, you will meet this little girl.

In the middle of the night she will be on your ceiling.

She will suffocate you like she was suffocated.

If you send this on, she will not bother you.

Your kindness will be rewarded


repost this with the title 'sleepover gone way wrong


DNT LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU.. SEND THIS TO 20 PPL AND YOU WONT GET RAPED OR KILLED BUY THE WEIRD MAN!?

It totally made me think of "Halflife, Fulllife Concequences", if you have seen that Youtube video! (If you haven't you should totally look it up, lol because it is hillarious!)

Oh Very Helpful... lol


So you know those security letters you have to type in when you are creating an account for something or retrieving a password so that the website knows you aren't just a computer? Well I came across some while trying to retrieve my gmail password today that I couldn't figure out! (not the example here... unfortunately I didn't think to take a pic of them) I am usually pretty good with them, but these letters were all smushed together way too close for me to tell what they were. So, I clicked on the little wheelchair button (which I assumed meant help) and the following audio is what played every time I clicked it! Lol.




Thankfully I ended up remembering my password!!!

Mounts At Level 30!!!


I couldn't believe it at first, but it's true! As of patch 2.4.3, you can now get your first mount at level 30, not level 40! This includes your free warlock/paladin mount and for all you other classes, the training is now only 35g!

In addition to lowering the level at which you can now get your mounts, some other interesting things from the patch notes are that for warlocks, there will be no more choosing between Curse of Shadow and Curse of Elements! They combined the curses into one that now does Fire, Frost, Arcane, and Shadow =D

Something that I think is fun is that Haris Pilton (from the Inn in Shat) will now sell jewelry and bags! haha.

A sporegar dude now sells a 28 slot herb bag tailoring pattern to people of appropriate rep.

You can now get a non-combatant pet from the Netherguard people! He's very cute!

That is all =)

OMG Party Chat On Xbox Live!?


So I've always been rather disappointed that there isn't any kind of party chat offered on xbox live other than in game ones. I was surprised when I found out that you could only chat with one person at a time in an xbox live chat party, and found it rather inefficient, because there was always a few people I wanted to be talking to, and instead of just all talking together, I had to choose between friends! Lol. I was so glad to hear that sometime this year Xbox Live will be undergoing a variety of changes, including adding a party chat that can accommodate up to 8 people! =D That will be awesome!

I guess they are also adding "Avatars". Supposedly these will be similar to the Wii's "Mii" things. I've never seen a Mii, because I have only played a Wii once, but I like the idea of being able to customize your own little character! I hope there are lots of customization options though and not like a few different choices for how your Avatar can look, because it would be really lame if everyone's ended up looking alike!

In addition to the party chat and Avatars they are also adding Xbox Live Primetime. I guess you will be able to play games against other people with a host, and you can win real prizes! Lol, this sounds sweet, other than so far I haven't been good enough at any games to ever win anything... but who knows, maybe they'll have like a singing game, because I could totally win something on a game like Rock Band or Karaoke Revolutions, lol.

Finally they are making it so you can copy any game to your 360 hard drive. You will still need to have the disk in the 360, but it will help you eliminate long load times, and I am assuming it will fix whatever is wrong with my Oblivion that makes it crash if I don't save every 2 minutes, so I am looking forward to that! You'll also be able to buy things from the xbox marketplace online and they will be downloaded onto your console.

I am really looking forward to all these changes! They say the 360 is going to be geared more towards the casual gamer now, which is cool because I consider myself a casual gamer and all... Although all this new stuff does sound fantastic, I'd just like to point out that i.m.o, Microsoft totally didn't need to change anything because the 360 already owned all the other systems anyways! hehe

GTA Swing Set of Doom


So I am sure anyone who is really into GTA has played around with this swing set already, but just in case someone hasn't discovered it yet, I thought I'd make a quick post about it! You can see on the map where it is located. It is in a little park right where the green locater is. Basically you grab a vehicle, drive in and position the car so that part of it is over one of the legs of the swing set. You then wait a few seconds until the swing set tries to reset and it blasts your car into the air, sometimes sending you flying a few blocks away, lol. I played around with it for a while, so below is a video of how to do it and what to expect.

Have I Finally Beat My World of Warcraft Addiction?!


The Fury of the Sunwell game patch brought a lot of new content to the game, which at the time sparked up my interest in the game, which had been somewhat faded as of late. When my last guild had fallen apart, and I suddenly wasn't raiding all the time, I found I wasn't as interested in the game anymore. I started leveling a few alts, still attempting to reach my goal of a level 70 of every possible class, but my heart just wasn't in it anymore. I had grown accustom to leveling with people, so suddenly leveling alone felt boring, and I couldn't play more than a few hours every day. Of course to some this would still seem like a lot of play time, but compared to the six+ hours I had been playing per day, 1-2 hours was a huge reduction.

I dove right into all the new Fury of the Sunwell stuff though, got into a new guild and had even started raiding weekly again and doing Arenas. I was having a blast with the game once more, striving to be among the first to Exalted with the Shattered Sun and hording my Badges of Justice to be able to get as much of the new badge gear as possible when the vendor was unlocked. I had even started farming gold again, which hadn't been fun for a few months, but I was determined to get an epic flying mount, without being broke afterwards. So what happened?

I was one day of dailys off reaching Exalted with the Shattered Sun, and was so excited about getting the of the Shattered Sun title for 1K gold. I had not missed a single day of dailys, especially not any of the new fishing and cooking ones. I woke up early on that fateful day and eagerly made my way to my comp, just to find my game time had expired! I had always paid with a certain credit card that I'd been having problems with, so I checked and sure enough it would no longer go through on the site. I didn't worry much, figuring I'd get a game card in the next couple days. A few days later I got one, and as I was out buying it, my Internet was cut off. This had happened a few times in the past due to complications or problems in the area, so I didn't worry too much, other than I was sorry to miss out on being Exalted for another day. It turned out that my Internet bill hadn't been paid for a few months (which I was unaware of because it wasn't one of the bills I paid, it was my roommate's), and was now cut off until they received the $500 back pay from the months we'd missed. Needing to play my WoW, I forked over the money myself immediately (which was all of my savings). It ended up taking almost two months to get it re-connected due to some mess up with our modem having to be replaced and stuff.

I don't really remember what I did with myself for those two Internetless months, other than wish I had Internet every day and steal very weak signals from my neighbour's wireless connections from my window. Unfortunately I could never keep the signal long enough to log onto WoW, so I lost a bunch of mail, never got Exalted with the Shattered Sun, and lost contact with the new guild I had joined. When it was finally all worked out, I quickly added the game card I had purchased ages ago to my account and logged on. I won't lie, I was expecting a grand reception from my WoW friends and new guild, with presents and "we missed you"s and tons and tons of in game "where are you" mails... There wasn't anything! No one even said anything to me when I logged on that day, because I guess everyone had gone off to do other things (play on other servers, other games, etc). I was so disappointed that the whole time I'd been Internetless, WoW and my WoW friends had been all I thought about, yet here I was, back after two months away, and WoW and my WoW friends had just kept on going without me. I guess that sort of put it all into perspective to me, and I suddenly realized how unimportant the World of Warcraft really was.

I had spent two months pining over my dear lost game, thinking I was missing out on so much, only to come back and suddenly see that it was just a game! I guess it was just all that distance I had from it that finally let me see it for what it was. I tried starting a new character on a new server, because although my obsession with the game had wained, I missed it!! I missed feeling like I had to play every day, so I thought maybe if I started over again, I'd get re-addicted. I played to level 18 I think on a PvP server, but couldn't get any farther. It just wasn't interesting anymore! I tried PvPing and leveling some of my higher alts. I gave farming a shot and even tried to do dailys, but I just couldn't! So, I stopped playing.

I think it's been a month or two since I've gotten my Internet back, but I haven't played WoW at all. I've thought about logging on a few times, but my computer screen is dieing so it flashes really bad if I try and play, which keeps me off it. I don't necessarily miss it anymore though. I do have a lap top for if I just had to play, but I haven't. I've been kind of watching how much my roommate plays, and it makes me not want to play! He bought a new game card to activate his second account over food one week, which I totally would have been all for a few months ago, but now it was just like omg what is wrong with you?

King expansion. I haven't given away my thousands of gold or any of my 70s yet just in case I do like playing again when it comes out. I'm not sure if I want to get back into it or not, Not playing WoW has been great, I must say! I've been going out so much, saving $60 / month (that I had been spending on my three accounts), and I've just been an overall happier gal! I had always just sort of joked about being addicted and WoW running my life, but I realize now that it really had been!!! We'll have to see if Blizz can rope me back in with this Wrath of the Litch expansion lol.

Funny Myspace Messages

So I recently made a Little Gamer Girl myspace. These are all real messages I have randomly gotten from people I do not know over the past two months. I know that perhaps a lot of them do not know much English, and that is the reason for the horrible spelling/ grammar, but they still made me giggle! Does that make me a bad person? Probably, but oh well, maybe they will make you laugh as well! (I'll remove all their IM addresses to make it seem less mean!)

This is for sure my favorite of all the random messages I have gotten from people I don't know on myspace! Check out the time and effort this guy must have put forth to come up with such an intense (confusing) love letter for someone he doesn't even know! hahaha, I wonder how many other inboxes received this lovely large message?

CoD4 Team Killers (grr)


I now enjoy this game a fair bit, and play it quite often. The few people I have witnessed playing tend to get very angry very easily at things that happen in the game, which makes me laugh at them. Recently however something has started to get a little irritating, even to me!

I like playing Hardcore Team Deathmatch the most. I am not very good yet, but I usually am not the worst either. Team killing gets very frustrating if you're not doing well, and sometimes people will decide they are going to kill me every chance they get, even though they are on my team. I'll always hear them yelling "Little Gamer Girl" through my TV speakers (not my headset because I am always chatting with someone when I am playing), so I guess they team kill me over and over to try and get my attention? Not the best way to go about doing that, lol, but whatever. Those idiots aren't the ones who bother me. It is the people who are being really dumb and wander in front of you when you are shooting at someone on the other team. Then I get a team kill because they are being stupid. That is not the worst part though! Then the idiot that wandered into my stream of bullets respawns and comes and kills me?! Like wtf? How incredibly dense do you have to be to think I freaking shot you on purpose when I was obviously shooting across the map at someone else?

I have to say this, so far, has been the only thing that gets me yelling at my tv. When those dolts come and seek revenge on me for something that I should be angry at them about ( I loose my points for them wandering into my bullets ), I do start calling them nasty names... Lol, of course it is never to them, only to whoever I happen to be chatting with at the time.

So, next time you are playing CoD4 and someone team kills you, before you go seeking revenge on the guy, make sure you didn't get killed because of your own stupidity!!! Sure, sometimes it is obvious that someone is team killing just to be an ass, but 80% of the time it is just an honest mistake, and you should be the one apologizing for messing up and costing someone their points!
