***Came very close to deleting here.  Definitely threw out a couple "I hate this fucking game" and "Why do I play this piece of shit game?".***
***This may have been worse than the death to the Emperor when I didn't know he was logged on.***

***Flame was super classy, but to be honest I don't even know what got looted from me because I quit out the moment I got back to my corpse and did a get all corpse***
***It's not even the loss of gear that gets to me, to be honest.  It's dying in a stupid fucking way because I mispelled call 'mantle' and failed concentration on it***
***And that I didn't remember putting my potions in my chest.  And because it seems like this game is really one big experiment in masochism***

***I'm not sure I want to play until after this never-ending Scarab quest is done.  It's fun being an underdog, but it really wears on you.  I don't need this stress.***
***I've had to ignore phone calls (except that AFK death to Mummy) from family because I'm in the middle of raid #17843854, or because I'm running for my life...and that shit's not cool.***
