Sorry, I’m not specced to heal bigots. [ 6D ]

Sorry, I’m not specced to heal bigots.

I wonder if this constitutes a re-write of Rule #2 or an expansion thereof?

And in better news:

Pew Pew: Underpaint

Man, I might even get this pic done by new year at this rate. Also: She’s only got one boob. Tssch!

Maybe it can be my new vanity pet? The Blue Boob.

I guess the only good thing is they did that right at the start of the grouping (implied by the conversation?). Is there a limit to the number of people you can ignore? Because I think you’re going to bust your limit very soon.

Sadly, the mechanics in WoW mean that dropping group right at the start is the “worst” kinda of drop (basically, you have a “Dungeon Cooldown” of about 15 minutes once you enter an LFG; while you’re on Dungeon Cooldown, you can’t re-queue for another). So when shit like this happens, I basically end up having to sit around in town for 15 minutes before I can even try and re-queue, and then it can be upwards of an hour wait after that before a new group pops. D:

So yeah. It hurts to stick to your principles. >_<

(Incidentally, you should totally play WoW. It'll be awesome. )

I’d play WoW but everyone else is already too far in the game. People are going to be much less friendly towards “omg guise how to walk” newbies. Not that I’d be one; I’m totally leet.

Hmmmm, I have a bit of time this week and maybe next. Good time to use the 10-day free trial. Which server / faction / whatever should I play on / start with?

It’s miserable when you end up having to drop a group for a principle – I often find myself kicking my heels in Dalaran, wondering if I should just suck it up … and then I decide that, no, it’s only a game, and I’d rather spend 15 minutes fishing than 15 minutes listening to somebody be offensive for the sake of what? A couple of frost badges I don’t even need.

Exactly this.

It’s like, I wouldn’t associate with these people in the Really Real World; why should I have to put up with them when I’m trying to relax in the evening?

I think sometimes you have to stand by your principles, even if it means waiting longer for your dungeon.. I think it was a good think you dropped that group.

And that picture looks awesome.. what do you use when you draw?

Hee, thanks. :3

I start everything in mechanical pencil because I am rubbish with the tablet (I actually use erasible blue “leads” because I have a superstition about them making me draw better), then scan the sketch into Photoshop. I do a black a white values layer; an overlay layer of highly-saturated highlights; a multiply flood-fill of a dark, saturated colour, and on that same layer I start painting in the basic colours (this underpaint stage is where the Pew Pew pic currently is). Then I paint over everything on a normal layer. It sounds kinda complicated, but it’s actually really easy and gives a really rich, painterly end-product. Makes me look like a much better artist than I actually am, lol.

Thumbs up for sticking with your principles!

It’s amazing how many morons like the one in the chat are still out there in todays ‘modern and enlightened’ age…

Gah, I was in a pug icc25 yesterday when a player said zie had to leave because hir wife had arrived home from Spain. Uh-oh, I thought. Mentioned a real woman, now comes the flood of crap.
Sure enough, one guy announced in raid chat ‘His wife totally got nailed by Pablo, Carlos…’ and some other charmer jumped in with more of the Spanish names you’d choose if you were some racist, sexist dickhead with no imagination.
I wanted to leave but in the end just told the guy to ‘grow up’ and carried on. He told me to ‘lighten up’, so I put him on ignore and he complained to the RL. I need to learn to just quit those groups. You’re right that if you wouldn’t put up with it in the real world, you shouldn’t put up with it in wow.
