...we didn't have genies, 5aps, hypers, and all this other horse**** you youngsters use now. We kicked *** and took names like REAL MEN.

Why, I remember it like yesterday... We'd set up zhen near Sanctuary to keep out those blasted thieves and half the time get interrupted by a certain bug-like cleric. But hell, man. 'Twas all worth it to see the smiling faces of the townspeople there (not to mention the damn good experience as a reward). Now? Y'all are letting those thieves rob and pillage those poor people just so you can shoot up with those hyper drugs. Where's yer morals?

And oooo...lets not get into what a mess y'all have made of weapons. Don't cha know that the only suitable weapon for a BM is an axe? Likewise for archers with bows. These fist-thingamabobbers aren't any good. Just some stupid workout craze from the latest infomercial.

Also dunno where these blasted Tideborn came from. Psychics are okay, but those assassins...damn those assassins. Stealth ain't fair in the least. If yer gonna kill me, at least have the balls to show yerself before ya do, asswipes.

Oh...society. It's the damn end of the world as we know it and all one can do is rage at the devs.

I swear...if any of you take this seriously...

    Nobody ever wanted a lousy BM at fishies.

    It's ok. When I got 3rd map all those people who didn't want me to come to their fish parties started asking if I wanted help. Nope. I can solo-grind there just fine. lol

    Well back in MY day we couldn't buy gold even if we wanted! We got 50 of it for free and that was all we got, dayum rascals flaunting with all their money nowadays...

    Yesh, back in those days it was epic to be riding a mount, you know why, sonny? Because you had to be level 40 to ride one! And wanna know how long it took us to get there? At least a month!
    In those old days you were considered a king when your weapon was glowing blue, and if it was glowing yellow then they would kiss the ground you were walking on!

    Yesh back in those days where men were men, women didn't exist on the internet and where doing yer fb19 meant getting a good ol' spankin'. Where elves were the only ones that could fly because almost nobody made it past their 30's.

    Yesh the times were rough a'ight, sonny. Nothing like the warm sweaters yer wearin' right now, our only choice was a strider's vestment or else ye'd be locked up fer bein' one a them weird folk.

    And it all ended in a great war my boy. Scorpions the size of elephants I tell ye! City of the Lost was full with at least ten dozen of em! Many of us died that day, but we pulled through! Then when we thought it was all over, their leader came out, a great fish the size of a skyscraper! I heard he's been swimming around City of Misfortune lately... eh well, it was a butchery sonnyboy. And we pulled through yet again!

    And we celebrated with fireworks your eyes have never even seen! And they still cost 50 silver each back then!

    This story was a 100% accurate depiction of Perfect World International's Closed Beta Test.

    I zhenned in places you would never have imagined to stay away from KoS.

    I have even done the unconventional two EP lurer + BM + mage/archer AoE leveling party that I bet not many would have thought of. It is pretty comparable to zhenning, and can be done almost anywhere.

    Back in my day, we had to walk to school.. barefoot.. in the snow! We didn't have no fancy bookbags, we had our hands! There were no pens or pencils, we dipped our fingers in black charcoal and wrote on the floor! You youngins have it good nowadays.

    Hi grandpa on my place we use flat stone instead of book. (Even though the teacher already writing on blackboard with chalk.)
    And it's kind of easy to break stone so . . it sad when you broke it on the way to home or school.

    Oh and what is internet before ? b:chuckle
