Merry stinking christmas!

[Vorachtin]

It's that time of year we at Ravensguard force Crippey to be nice for 1 day. This year we are giving out 1 improved ottos box as a prize to the player that give us the best Ravensguard story. Good experience bad, funny, whacky the type of story doesn't matter just looking a story. We will judge on Christmas Day est time and post the winner.

Post your story in this thread, a screenshot relevant to the story is cool but not required. Winner will be posted in the thread and contacted via PM with instructions on how to conduct the trade with Crippey.

Time of the story doesn't matter, it can be from 10 years ago or yesterday. Good luck fellow citizens of Ghallanda.

This one time at Crafting Camp, I saw this Ravensguard guy walk past.

I thought to myself, 'Hey self, I've heard of those guys!'

Then I resumed melting my magic debris.

Being in RG makes far to many stories to point out any special ones. But, I can make up some stuff to entertain myself.

A jingle for "G." -dedicated to a trusted guild member who fails to understand how to get XP.
Running around the airship,
Trying to level a toon.
Looking for a party,
Not willing to lead the way.
See a raid posted,
Logs over to join the fight.
Party fills while loading.
No leveling done tonight.

Leveling boxes, leveling groups,
Leveling all the time.
Oh how nice it would be,
To start leveling tonight.
Slayer group, reaper group,
XP obtained any way.
If only I left the airship,
Maybe I could level today.

Merry Christmas G, maybe you can log on and be able to get off the airship.

'One Ranger can't do it all"
From the not to distant past, when DoJ was released with leashes. RG formed a 10 person DoJ with 4 pugs. One of what was a very special pewpew ranger. Can't remember the players name, though some do, but this guy was pure wow factor. Around the third or so wave RG members started telling this ranger to stop kiting the mobs, being they leash and will result in us failing. By the 6th wave or so, with this guy now pulling from everywhere, we failed. Ranger (who only just got on headset) then finally chimes up with "one ranger can't do it all," as if he was helping or soloing the raid. The sad thing is he actually thought he was helping. Rather then childish it out with our special little ranger. We just kicked him out of party, went in with 9, and finished without issue.

Evolution of statement: Many of us use the term now when we are talking about having a singular person solo or try and solo or carry a party. It is also used when a person completely fails to listen, fallow, or remove their heads from locations that is better for sitting then as a hat. It is not used to insult the ranger, and most of the time is not used by a person playing a ranger. Normally used when surrounded by stupid or under-skilled players.


More later tonight. Do try to keep up kids.

A good prank lasts in the story. Back when players use to be able to line drop chat it was fun for many to play pranks on party members or people that were just around you. This was used in fun by many of RG, some resulting in vacation time. Though you can not easily do this anymore it was a lot of fun.

Example 1:
*player 1 to guild: man this guy sucks, bet you I can get him to drop.
*player 1 to party chat: something random regarding the quest. /linedrop next line
<world brodcast>: servers are shutting down for emergency maintenance. Please log of immediately.
*pug that person wanted to get to drop to party: well nice run guys, catch you after downtime.
*pug logs off.
*player 1 to guild: spot has opened up if you still want in. X up.

Example 2:
Vicinity (me) running with B and R in quest. B was a very nice girl who lightly flirted with people as fun. R was a very rude guy who was everyone's favorite jerk and PR rep within RG.
*Vicinity to chat: something regarding quest. /linedrop next line
B: t/ell R "so when are we going on that date:"
*B to party: ohh s**t
*R to party: umm MT?
R was worked up afterwords. Some would say flustered and excited. Kinda like the shy guy who just got hit on. B took it as a joke and hated vicinity for about a week, refusing to use chat so that people didn't mess with her anymore. To this day I still joke with B about it when I run with her. Good times.

I thought Holykiller kept Cripey locked up in the basement?

You know it works with the basement Azz. Easy to get out, just bring cash, being there are no ATMs.
