God, I can't stop laughing. My officemate thinks I'm fucking insane.
Favorite quotes:
"It was douchebaggery on measurable scientific and national security scales: Real-life scientists and bioterrorism experts now study it as a case example. Presumably before drinking themselves into unconsciousness when they realize they're protecting a species that commits bio-terror in order to destroy worlds they hang out in for fun."
"The interview had barely started when Anshe was bombarded with an army of flying disembodied penises."
"Deciding not to return to the now secure CNET studio, she invited everyone into her own home server instead. There are men hopping back into minefields on one leg with better pattern recognition than that. The cockbardment immediately resumed with mind-bending meta-porn of her virtual body attacked by pictures of her real body photoshopped to hold a fake penis."
Jesus Christ. People online are huge fucking douchebags, guys. :D Be careful out there!

OMG that was hillarious! the EVE ones were great.

If MMORPG players were around when God said, "Let their be light" they'd have called the light gay, and plunged the universe back into darkness by squatting their nutsacks over it."
It's funny because it's true.

This list is incredible. EVE is absurd!

That was pretty entertaining. Can't believe someone got away with $170k USD worth of ISK - that's insane.
Did anyone else get a MLG Stride ad at the bottom featuring Tyler? Was pretty cool to see a SC2 progamer advertised on site that isn't primarily about starcraft or gaming.

I honestly think the Kerafyrm fuck-over should be higher, though EVE always deserves the top spot.

"Second Life is a complete virtual environment that compliments reality by helping people who are no good at the real world voluntarily remove themselves."
Hehehehe
these are all great little bits of nerd lore

Never knew about the Ultima one, sounds like great fun though. Awesome read, thanks for posting!

As completely screwed up as number 1 was, and despite the fact I don't think I could live with doing this in real life myself......the troll inside me thinks that is perhaps the most glorious thing to happen in the history of video games. Such an epic way to go out, both middle fingers held high, your annoyed, raging minions powerless to stop you as you ride off into the sunset. Just lol.

Wow EVE makes WoW look like .. just a game.
How does the bank operator actually go about collecting debts? I seriously have so much respect for these EVE players hahaha
|
Hotbid should be on that list
|
I was intrigued by the idea of plague cultivation. o_o
The human race is so fucked up. lol
|
I'm amazed they didn't include the BoB EVE dismantling. That was literally one of the biggest dick moves to ever happen on EVE online.
The ultima online one got me laughing so hard. I never heard of that one.

Uhm, did not make me laugh, not even a little. Maybe coz I don't play MMO's or stupid browser games. Decent writeup tho.
|
I love this kind of stuff. Eve is crazy.
|
Having experience the WoW virus outbreak firsthand, I just want to say that I'm glad it made the list. What a ridiculous week that was...

I was about to post this as well! Lots of gems in this article. I thought this was the funniest quote in the entire thing:
He spent months running the "EVE Intergalactic Bank (EIB)." This offered loans for start-up EVE corporations and miners who wanted to buy tools, with interest rates and repayment plans and yes, we're still talking about a game people apparently play for fun.
