I thought of y'all when I was putting together my list of What MMORPG’s have taught me about Real Life:
- Never engage in a battle you know you cannot win.
- Check the rules before you play.
- In your journey through life, buff people along the way. It costs you nothing and helps them move ahead too.
- Money is useless if you have no one to spend it on.
- Camp in a safe spot or you’ll wake up getting beaten down.
- Finding a good group will get you a lot of great experience you can’t get on your own. Finding a bad group will get you killed.
- The less ‘downtime’ the better.
- Be nice to noobs, everyone starts out as one. Never forget where you came from.
- The guy you’re working for may not have the best intentions. Listen closely before accepting the job.
- The shortcut has more monsters.
- There’s no point in complaining about the prices at the shop. Either buy it or leave it alone.
- Give all your knowledge to your toons, they’ll have their own adventures.
- A twinked toon will blow all cash on things it doesn’t need.
- Ask not what your guild can do for you, but what you can do for your guild.
- Talents and skills worth having take a lot of time to develop.
- In order to find what you’re looking for, you have to put up with a lot of things you’re not looking for.
- Fashion beats practicality everytime…but no one can logically explain why.
- There’s no one you want to meet in the pub.
- You’ve got to defeat a rat with a stick before taking a sword to a dragon.
- If you get defeated, recover and try again with a different tactic until you win.
- Adjusting your schedule is usually easier than competing.
- Listen to the quest-giver, keep the details with you at all time.
- Of course the game doesn’t make sense. The only decision you have to make about it is whether to play or not.
- If you’re having a problem in the guild, consult guild leadership…especially if you’re the guild leader.
- Mashing buttons randomly rarely amounts to success.
- The world is big, but the more you travel it, the easier it becomes.
- History explains a lot about why we do what we do.
- The people are always more important than the prize.
- Celebrate the victories of others.
- Let the person who has been there before lead the way.
- Nobody cares about your epics when you’re showing off.
- Recognize overconfidence early. If you follow, do so at a distance.
- Always know why someone is eager to trade.
- Higher levels always want to duel you in public. Politely decline. Ignore what is said thereafter.
- You may have a ride, but you can still get hit and cliffs approach sooner the faster you go.
- Maintenance your equipment or it will soon be junk.
- There are few who can give good directions, but many are those who think they can give good directions.
- It’s always good to question “what’s that burning smell”?
- The amount of your money is equal to the total cash divided by number of toons.
- You can overclock, but have no regrets about burning out.
- Never charge into battle without checking armor, weapons, and ammo first.
- If it is rare, everyone will want it.
- Let the healer heal or become a healer yourself.
- The day the expansion comes out, everyone will want to have the highest level and the best gear as soon as possible.
- Even the simple tasks are important for those who can’t do them.
- No one knows your character better than you do. Don’t concede to being less than you are.
- Some people will never be satisfied. If they have everything, they’ll complain there isn’t more to get or do.
- No one levels in a forum.
Hope you all enjoyed, feel free to add to the list.
