Not meant for Gemstone but I bet you can name at least one for each type.

[HarmNone]

Hee! Too funny! :rofl:

[Stanley Burrell]

That is awesome. Too true :yes:

[zhelas]

LOL!!! Totally classic.

[Augie]

:lolwave: I was reading that and nodding my head the entire time, picturing which account names fall under what category. Hah.

My favorite so far:



The Deathmonger

Main complaint about the game is that you can't kill everything. Secondary complaint is that the things you can kill don't suffer enough.

Sample Quote: "Why can't I make the baker watch me kill his wife and child, then force-feed their flesh to him until his stomach bursts? What is this, Barbie's Horse Adventure?"

Punishment: To be determined, pending DNA analysis of freezer contents.

[zhelas]

So what category do you fit under? :grin:

So what category do you fit under? :grin:

Either the power craver or the Deathmonger.

[zhelas]

The Power Craver: Definately. Looking for ways to kill things without having it kill my sorcerer.


One-Issue Poster: I am sort of in this category. When the topic of nerfing Sorcerers appears, it gets my hackles up.

[SpunGirl]

Fucking priceless. That is awesome. People complaining that the janitor system is OOC brings to mind the bad make-believe people.

[ElanthianSiren]

The Lifestyler

Wants a bunch of cosmetic changes to a single type of character. Exhibits an eerie level of identification with said character.

Sample Quote: "The Pastry Elves' laugh should be less bubbly and more tinkly. Our giggle should remind you of gazing at the stars as a child, and our smile should make you think of the taste of honey on a cool spring morning."

Punishment: Character icon replaced with accurate photograph of self.

Those two are pretty much me. I wouldn't mind an avatar of myself as my character though. That would actually be kind of cool.

edit: the second one is me because while playing my empath, I do tend to pout when things die too quickly due to boneshatter or 1110 or 111. With my warrior, I tend to like to take all their limbs off slowly then pout when there are no more limbs left. I enjoy punishing npc monsters. I need a hobby.

[The Ponzzz]

I'm all about:

The Majority Stockholder
The Magical Realist

Heh with...

The Power Craver in a-not-so-distant third.

Hilarious! I am a horrible person!
