yes and then he can thank you later.. i'd still like to do a prank call first though. Pretend your from customer services/online support from Blizzard and say you caught him boting/hacking or using some other abusive shit and that his account has been terminated.

@ Tarte:

Do you even read a 'few' of the posts in a said thread before you speak because you are starting to come across as one of the biggest idiots here. I'd rather help you out before other people start to take notice ._.

Just confront him already, GI. Why you've waited this long is beyond me. If you don't talk to him when he does something the first few times, then in his mind it's fine for him to do it for the rest of the term.

Another thing you should need to do is drop your negative attitude towards him. Don't think he can't see right through you, too: if he feels you see him as subhuman filth, then he will just reciprocate that attitude back at you, just like every person will. Believe me: based on my experience, if you try to talk to him with that kind of attitude in the back of your head then he WILL pick up on it. You will never make any progress with him (and confronting him will likely only make things worse) until you honestly believe that he is ultimately a good person. And you should show him that ultimately you are a good person, too.

Right now he might just be annoying out of ignorance. But once he knows how you perceive him (if he hasn't figured it out already), then he will probably start to annoy you intentionally as well.

After living with a close friend for a whole year and getting to know him a lot better it makes me wonder why you would even need to make a thread like this.

If you're looking for some sort of solution it's quite easy. Just say something along the lines of:

Look [ insert name ], the other night when I was trying to spend some quality time with Michelle you totally fucked it up for me. I understand that you play WoW and that it's a serious thing for you but its gone too far. You play it all the time when I'm trying to sleep/study and I don't say anything. You play it when I bring a girl over and I don't say anything. You also lied to me saying you REALLY needed to use the computer for only a little bit. A little bit is not 5 hours dude. All I'm asking is to lower your voice when I'm trying to do shit [ sleep/study ] or be a little more considerate. It was pretty lame that you left the light on and didn't shut the door, come on that's common manners....Do you get where I'm coming from?

And then make it your own prerogative to make sure you tell him that you need some quiet or privacy time IN ADVANCE.

There's your solution.

If he doesn't respond in a positive manner then the final choice you have is to move out. There is no way you can continue to be a successful student in your environment. Forget student, you won't be able to be your own man.

i was going to say that you should talk to him nicely, but all this talk about "pretend like you are gay and scare the shit out of him until he moves out" leaves me amused. you said that he has friends who come over to play WOW. does his friend also have a room mate who hate WOW? perhaps you can have your roommate becomes roommates with his WOW buddy, and have the WOW buddy room with you instead. i know that moving rooms is hard, but in this case, you aren't moving rooms, you are just switching, so the logistics of it is easy and it shouldn't be very hard to convince the dorms...

but ha, ya. try to pretend like you are gay first. and pics of michellllleeeee

GI, you should have told him to get the fuck out. God why do people have to be so 'nice' all the time.

Would have been a guaranteed score if you manned up.

Your fault, not his.

Solutions:
1. Music.
You can get music, you can play it loud, he cant use teamspeak.
Just put some ear plug and play the brown noise (use cartman method to find it).

2. No thread on teamliquid, buuuuut an invitation to everyone from this forum to come there,
fill your room of friends, so he cant fit there anymore.


Id use solution one. Music not in the taste of someone can really drive crazy.
He will eventually come to you and complain about your music and then it will be easy for you to bring up the issue. Seriously if he dares to complain about the music, go bersek
"I HAVENT FUCKING SAID ONE THING ABOUT YOU BOTHERING ME 24/7 WITH YOUR WOW PLAYING WHILE IM TRYING TO HAVE SOME PRIVATE TIME WITH MY GIRLFRIEND AND YOU DARE TO COMPLAIN. YOU DESERVE TO DIE YOU FUCKING SMELLY NON SHOWERING COMPUTERGAME ADDICT. "

now you leave the room.

2 hours later, you come and apologize. Problem solved.

This is a prime example of why you need to surround yourself only with the people you like and trust. Sucks that you're stuck in this college situation.

When I used to live just me and my roommate (two story place but the two floors are connected so no privacy) if he was sleeping and had to wake up for work in two hours and I had a girl all I would have to do was call him, tell him to wake up, buy a few beers and rubbers for me at the mart, and get the fuck out of the house into a hotel before I got home...and he would do it without question or bad feelings (so long as his "success?" text message few hours later was answered affirmatively, if not his noble sacrifice would have been a waste)...sometimes he'd even just drudge into work 2 hours early on only 3 hours of sleep. Another time, he 18'd a girl on my bed while I was gone and admitted to it the next day. I harbored no ill will and went about cleaning my sheets happily.

Thats what friends are for.

Read through most of this; and I've come up with a genius plan !

Okay, so, he plays WoW - a lot. Use it against him ! Find out which server he plays on, make a level 1 female character on the server and start sweet talking him (but do so without getting caught obviously). After he "falls in love" with your in-game female persona, (god knows they all do!) you ditch him in game and tell him the truth, that you're indeed a man! Afterwards you post all screenshots, logs and pictures you've collected on any random site (and post a link here for the rest of us), this way you'll shatter his world, turn him away from WoW, AND get to mock him immensly.

If you tell us beforehand, and plan it all thoroughly - I guarantee we won't (or I won't atleast) label you as a zia, and the end results of this would be beyond hilarious for all of us !

Whoever said to hide/steal/break his WoW CD, that doesn't do anything. The CD isn't required to play. All his information/chars/etc is stored on the WoW servers so if you can delete his char that's how you hurt him.


And get killed.
It takes a fool to remain sane.

1. A psychology major does understand your mentality and motives. That's the fucking point. He's not intentionally being a condescending ass. Sorry, but as a psychology major who gets the same crap, I felt the need to point that out.


that's bullshit. undergraduate psychology majors who have taken a mish-mash of the required low-level memory+cognition, developmental psychology, organizational psychology, etc. courses are not more aware than 'the rest of us' any more than a biology major can start giving medical advice. 'he's not intentionally... being condescending?' does he have a right to be, or is he just not masking his apparent superiority well enough?

also, do you see the irony when you say the roommate can see through GI's 'mentality and motives' when he has an obvious problem himself?

you have your theories and your books, but the vast amount of dimwitted, power-hungry dipshits that find solace in being psychology majors should make you reconsider your pride in your major.

Phyre must have missed the Tyra Banks show thread ;/ I'd like to see a crazy Indian guy on film though. If you were to delete his chars... pricesless moment, but oh yes you need balls first and that is the heart of the problem right now :O

Anyone can make those observations, i.e. myself as a director. It does sound like he has many problems of his own. A major/degree in psych means shit. Get your doctorate and then we'll talk. Even then some of those people I know are blundering idiots. So, I'll leave by saying this: if you got it faunlt it! let it all stick out.

Psychology majors are the dumbest of them all. If you need to study that bullshit to be good at it you're a fucking moron.

Coincidentally...I was a psych major for 6 months... but I dropped out anyways and never acted like I could see into peoples souls anywhere off a poker table.

While drinking soju in a red tent along a dirty street surrounded by filthy whore houses in the scummy part of Seoul you can rant your blatant racism as you wish to your cock gobbling dong-sengs.

Not on this forum.
