Hey, Locke? What gives?!?By Locke on March 11th, 2009
I know, I know, I haven’t been writing as of late. Most of the scripts have been by Ence, mostly because I’ve been so busy I can’t really develop scripts into perfect, funny, haha-sort of scripts. And I’ve neglected to write any game reviews, although I’m not sure how many of you read those. It’s slow going, although that’s no excuse. It’s not like I’m writing anything else that’s more important. I recently got wind of a few things that vexed me. Apparently a girl got booted from her Xbox live account due to her personal bio. Nothing was amiss about it, save for her preference in people. This was deemed inappropriate by Xbox Live ToS supposedly, and she was taken off her account. Now, I realize that some people are concerned with their kids seeing such things, but I told this story to tell you a similar one. My dad and I had to rename our gamertags due to “inappropriate names as listed in ToS” meaning, either copyrighted or not very mature. Mine was Cosymeatpacker and his was MCPeepantz503. Now, why couldn’t Microsoft just tell her to change her bio instead of booting her? Apparently many gamers decided to flag her bio due to her preference, almost doggedly. They would stalk her and harass her to leave Xbox Live. This is a sad story to me, because I know many other gamers just like her. I really wish that someday, someone can find ways to choke these jerkwads through the internet, because really, this is getting out of hand. People are using services like this to make people’s personal lives a living hell. I can understand that one feels pretty ticked off when someone else rips them a new mouth with a sniper round, but that’s no reason to steal fifty bucks from somebody. /preach I got to 71 yesterday, finally. Leveling is getting really hard, mostly because we don’t have a large enough group to roll with. Northrend is a neat place, but without many guildmates, there is only so much you can do. Ence and Tikara are quickly catching up with their alts, but I feel like I won’t have much time at all to get to 80. But I know that the next expansion of WoW, if there is any, won’t come for a while, so I got some time left. I know there are a lot of WoW players reading the comic, so if you want to start fresh, the Stonemaul server is where we’re lurking. Pst Encifer or Orin for more details. Later, Locke |
