# like it ever makes a difference
like you said it's not a competition, but it always amuses me when someone suggests a post should be added to the challenge even if it's only borderline and loads of people cry foul.
it doesn't matter, there are no prizes and a few more pixels on the pile won't bring about the apocalypse.

No matter what the competition somebody always crops up to moan about it for some reason.

# a WoW/ EQ2 reference
EQ2 is also a billion times better, and more grown up, and prettier....

(I helped save b3ta! Lord_Munkee, Tue 8 Jan 2008, 22:38, archived)
# You're wrong
For starters, EQ2 is not more grown up, it's equil.
Secondly, it's not a WoW/EQ2 reference as DAoC, EVE Online and SWG were all using it before EQ2 and WoW even came out. It is a general MMORPG game.

Thirdly, out of all the MMORPGs I've played, which is quite a few. EQ2 and WoW are my least favourite.

# Tanking is an MMORPG term,
It was around before WoW, before EQ2, it was around when the first few MMORPGs came out.

I should know, I've played more than one of them.

# Wanted a change,
but nothing too different, something more pronouncable!
I wanted 'Stan' but someone has it.
Should I lose the 'Mr'?

Mighty Standot
Measly Standot
Mouse-ridden Standot
