- nopRT, on 09/12/2008, -3/+112Fake. Every raid has more hunters than you could possibly use.
- inactive, on 09/13/2008, -17/+87I am SO glad that I don't get this.
- Acqua206, on 09/13/2008, -1/+65I registered for the free online trial but decided halfway through the download that it was a bad idea, considering how addicted to MUDs (think WoW but all text, no graphics, for you youngsters) I was back in my high school days in the late nineties.
The sumubiches sent me an install disc in the mail a couple of weeks later. I just sat there looking at it. It sat there for a while too, until I got bored one day and decided to give it a go. I installed it, waited for it to update, then update again, then again, then again, and then I said ***** it, uninstalled WoW, broke the DVD in half and called it a day.
There ends my pointless story on how I almost lost my life to WoW. - tehsilentcircus, on 09/13/2008, -2/+41DE!!!
- tehsilentcircus, on 09/13/2008, -4/+38glad you chose to comment then.
- jggube, on 09/13/2008, -1/+30"It shoots witches instead of arrows". /roll 1-100 + *crosses fingers*
- Tonkatsu, on 09/13/2008, -0/+26Wow MUDs, takes me back. I abstained from everquest solely from the impact MUD days had on my everyday life. I knew WoW was just more crack but I went for it anyway. 300x days and 7 70s later I kinda decided that I actually liked this type of game. I won't deny that it will take, but honestly it gives too. Really for $15 bucks a month, I don't know of any other entertainment enterprise that could offer me the value/dollar. I also doubt anyone will know what a MUD is. I respect your choice without assuming your's diminishes mine: Still have a life and am able to maintain real life friendships now removed 3000 miles through the use of this devil tool. (dugg you regardless).
- silverzone, on 09/12/2008, -1/+24Yup. That happens a lot.
- scabbers, on 09/13/2008, -1/+24I used to rag on Penny Arcade, but since the whole xkcd spamming era of digg, I'm clinging to their legs and sobbing with joy.
- da233, on 09/13/2008, -0/+22It's funny because it's an exaggerated version of the truth.
...plus, the mage goes Pew Pew - Tdrtnlz, on 09/13/2008, -3/+23What?
- MutatedNantuko, on 09/13/2008, -3/+21That almost made me cry because it has happened to me so many times. I'm so happy I got out of WoW.
- CoreyTamas, on 09/13/2008, -0/+17Then you'll just have to make do until Everybody Loves Raymond comes out in comic form, won't you?
- fugazied, on 09/13/2008, -0/+16That definitely got a laugh out of me, but I am still glad I quit wow a couple of years back. That game is crack.
- kamiten, on 09/13/2008, -0/+14Dugg for reference to MUDs and an amusing story for those of us who have battled with/enjoyed multi user game addiction.
- McBradd, on 09/13/2008, -0/+13Before you try to rag on Penny-Arcade just try and show me another web Comic with Art as high quality as theirs has become over the years, with writing as strong and relevant to the gaming audience, with the consistent track record, or the ambition to contribute in a positive way- Child's Play Charity, Penny-Arcade Expo...
I contented that there is none. - inactive, on 09/13/2008, -1/+13Oh look, it's mister "I have a life" ready to impress everyone on the internet!
- darthsand, on 09/12/2008, -1/+11What's the matter with diplomacy these days?
- Slade605, on 09/13/2008, -1/+11WoW is like a fat chick, don't knock it till you try it.
- HamSandwich, on 09/13/2008, -1/+11Dude, if you say "quoted for truth"... you have to quote something.
- Bloodwine, on 09/13/2008, -0/+10Nah, it's like AOL. They turn you back on at the blink of an eye. You can have your account canceled for years and if you ever re-subscribe down the road all your characters still exist with all their goodies.
Blizzard knows how to market their crack. - Taiyoryu, on 09/13/2008, -0/+10Penny Arcade even has political discourse. From the News section:
***** the rest of this *****. I want our next President to have managed a guild. - perogi21, on 09/13/2008, -0/+9/roll 100 100 guaranteed win :-)
- airwalke, on 09/13/2008, -0/+9It happens a lot to me too, but then I realize it's still a game and that I enjoy raiding more than I do getting loots. WTF?
- rdubya44, on 09/13/2008, -5/+14Cool..another joke I don't get...
- urgeigh, on 09/13/2008, -0/+8These comments suck.
- OpaqueMurdock, on 09/13/2008, -3/+11I am clean and sober for almost a year... I am almost to the step where you remove the game folder from your hard drive!
Of course, my guild was almost on farm status with everything up to Hyjal at the time I stoped... so if I started up again I am sure I gould just power through and get some really nice gear really fast...
Gotta go call my sponsor... - cugar, on 09/13/2008, -1/+9only if youre alliance, alliance love their hunters
- OpaqueMurdock, on 09/13/2008, -0/+7Stop it! All of you! Stop it!
Your... tearing... me... APART! *sob* : )
ripple123, you're a bastard! I hope you don't kill your Inner Demon while fighting Leotheras the Blind and your raid has to waste resources and time killing you. jk : ) - mimigins, on 09/13/2008, -0/+7Installing WoW takes about 2-3 hours with updates. Installing WoW with BC takes like 5
I hated when my hard drive needed reformatting...
Oh well, haven't played in a while now. Getting near 1 year! - Fhwqhgads, on 09/13/2008, -0/+7I think this is a parody based on an actual event where a legendary bow was given to a rogue instead of a hunter. It was all over the WoW forums.
- xGeneric, on 09/13/2008, -0/+7lol, yeah I've heard so pretty funny vent discussions with this topic...
"Oh ***** it dropped!", "Dude, no one tell him the trinket dropped, he's gonna be rip *****", "Well he's gonna find out! Someone's goin... oh ***** he just logged on vent, everyone QUIET", "Hai guys! Anything good drop", "...just boots. ***** boots. Terrible stats. Shouldn't even be epic. Nothing good at all".
Or for me personally, killing Hex Lord 10+ times for my feral druid staff, I miss one raid, and a resto druid happens to get it. /cry - hate2digg, on 09/13/2008, -0/+7so..this means you dont have to buy arrows for it right?
- fLUx1337, on 09/13/2008, -0/+7What if nobody can DE?! It becomes a useless piece of junk, worth a few gold. Damn!
- norbiu, on 09/13/2008, -0/+6I've been WoW-sober for 17 months.
- Tonkatsu, on 09/13/2008, -2/+8all loot is hunter loot. (bury me, cmon, you know it's true...) =)
- ripple123, on 09/13/2008, -1/+7hey man... one tier wont hurt... maybe just a new epic. cmon, maybe get exalted with some of those new factions.. its easssssyyy...
- EvilFerret, on 09/13/2008, -0/+6The keys are like right next to each other.
- Ventolin, on 09/13/2008, -0/+6I thought this post was sarcastic until I saw your name. Truly, WoW IS serious business for you.
- LoveWidescreen, on 09/13/2008, -0/+5I've been following them for years and I still don't find them funny. I can't think of one of their comics that actually made me laugh. When they don't have a punch line they just throw in some swearing to make up for it. (Apparently they're not students of George Carlin who talked about using swear words for *emphasis*.)
That said, not liking the comic has nothing to do with the quality or with the contributions that they've made over the years, at least in my case. Only an idiot would downplay what they've done. Hell, I'm looking forward to going to PAX East in 2010. But don't confuse that with the fact that some of us just don't think they're funny! - bigdoglj52, on 09/13/2008, -0/+5alliance does love the hunters
- unnes, on 09/13/2008, -0/+5Sounds like a rogue who got owned by hunters too many times in AB.
- Lumbage, on 09/13/2008, -1/+6wtf
- ccanni1028, on 09/13/2008, -0/+4But you have to find a supply of witches instead, and carry them around with you.
- russ3, on 09/13/2008, -0/+4Ive been off it for a month, but just cant seem to cancel the subscription. that last step seems so ... final.
- iticu, on 09/13/2008, -8/+12WoW sucks.*
Don't worry, it's an easy typo to make. - commiecat, on 09/13/2008, -0/+4This was a good portion of my social life in high school:

:( - inactive, on 09/13/2008, -0/+4lol...pew pew!
- LucasVB, on 09/13/2008, -0/+4I've tried WoW and to be honest, I had more fun with MUDs. Probably because back then it was all new and my imagination ran rampant. Ah *****, MUDs rock.
- inactive, on 09/13/2008, -0/+4Booty Bay is under attack!
