<DIV>Couldn't help but post this after I made it on my Alch from Advanced Alchemy 58:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV><IMG src="http://www.solisearch.net/ims/pic.php?u=44598f2SY&i=214879"></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>It's a nice one.  Sorry about the crappy graphic, but the most sophisticated graphics program I know how to use is Windows Paint <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Grats bud <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV>

<DIV>They must be refering to some other Gaige. That potion is suppose to be Monk only... <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV>

[Gaige]

Cool, thanks for the post Ixnay.  Did you get WW first on it?

[ganjookie]

lol thats insane, but GRATS MAN, could happen to a nicer monkey tiger <div></div>

<P>Lol not only did someone beat me to discovering these, I wasn't even close - these were discovered over a day before I made them.  That's ok though, grats again and enjoy.  <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></P>

Congrats Gaige. Very cool to have an ingame item named after your character!

[shaolen]

Congrats Gaige, that is quite an honor.

[Parrot665]

<P>That's very cool - I'll repeat the Grats Gaige!</P> <P>And to Ixnay - two 60 crafters?? Now THAT's amazing - Grats to you man <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></P> <P>Genoshen</P> <P>The Legionnaires of Light</P> <P>Blackburrow</P>

<P>And without looking at your posts, I'm going to guess you are a dejected Guardian waiting for the waaaaaaambulence to come and pick you up.</P> <P> </P> <P>That being said, I'd love to see the posts in which I'm flexing this "bruiser [Removed for Content]" you seem to be fascinated with, considering both Gaige and I are monks. :p</P>

<DIV>Harpax. this is so funny! When I made my last post I was going to add that your whining and crying comments would be too predictable and you didn't have to bother posting them but I forgot to.

[Banwar]

<P>akshun, no doubt you're right. Once you get to the point Gaige and I have sunk to it's hard to dig out, and unfortunately it's become more then just a game to us. I've spent several years playing mmorpg's, while I beleive Gaige admitted to this being his first, and anything I devote that much time to I take a personal affront when someone acts to disrupt it.</P>

[akshun]

<P>Banwar,</P> <P>It's not necessarily a bad thing when you take a vested interest in something you enjoy doing.  I like EQ2 as much as the next person, and would like to see my class play out the way I think it should.  However I try not to get to involved to the point where I am bashing other people or taking away from my real life affairs.</P> <P>You are obviously a passionate person, as is Gaige, and its just personality clash taking place.</P> <P>In the end who cares that monks can or can't do this, and guardians can or can't do that.  You pay to play not to develop.</P> <P>I agree that SOE usually throws us all a curve ball at one point or another, but i'm still payin and i'm still playin. Its the fun factor of playing with a few friends that gets me...in five years of playing i have never gotten a character past 35.....maybe i'm just lazy but I want to keep the fun as long as possible.</P> <P>Yes Gaige is a prolific figure in the boards, but he usually approches posts with an objective demeanour, which is why so many people read his stuff.  As far as being a pet, i don't see it, but if he is a SOE operative, good on him!</P> <P>My apologies for my earlier post..the OMG bit was maybe a bit harsh.</P> <P>Anyways perhaps i'll see you in  game sometime and we can duke it out there....but have fun along the way!</P> <P>Right...now back to the game everybody!</P> <P>AkShun</P>

Im 10 if that matters! Just cause your old and should be wiser doesn't mean you should pick fights on the internet, my friends and I are laughing cause you are so stoopid.  We think  you have something wrong with your brain, that doesnt let you love anybody nor get what my older brother calls an erektion. <div></div>

<P><FONT color=#ff6666 size=3>Just wanted to thank you for makin me giggle this morning. You are making my day at work just a little more entertaining. Sitting here reading this thread and I cant help but laugh. It really is silly....And it's too bad that some of you dont take as much pleasure out of rolling up a character from scratch that others of us do. Do you really enjoy this game so little that you just cant stand to play a diffrent class? Oh, wait, nevermind. I sometimes forget.....</FONT></P> <P><FONT color=#ff6666 size=3>I know all about Guards woes, my guild has essentially quit raiding until guards get "fixed", mobs get fixed, or, or, or..... Akshun has a point about it being a game. Why not play it as it is, let SOE continue to run test issues on live servers, and just wait in the wings for Vanguard, where all your previous MMO tunnel vision will most likely be blown all to helil.</FONT></P> <P><FONT color=#ff6666 size=3>Anyway....back on OP track. Gaige, it really is cool to be immortalized this way. Grats. maybe my baby monk can take lessons some day.    /wink</FONT></P> <P><FONT color=#ff6666 size=3>And ganjookie       OMG LMFAO    </FONT></P> <P><FONT color=#ff6666 size=3></FONT> </P> <P><FONT color=#ff6666 size=2></FONT> </P> <p>Message Edited by Dirtgirl on <span class=date_text>10-05-2005</span> <span class=time_text>11:06 AM</span>

<P>Listen, I just want to add that this past month apparently my check didn't make it to the cable company and I had to pay a 4 dollar and 67 cent late payment fee and I have an idea that this was all due to Gaige campaigning against us Guardians.</P> <P>/presents exhibit A</P> <P>If you look at this picture of my mail box, and if you notice the monk in the picture is pulling the stamp off the envelope that I had SEALED and stamped to go to the cable company.  If you see the tag over this monk it clearly reads GAIGE.</P> <P>/presents exhibit B</P> <P>If you notice in this picture, you will see the stamp on gaige's tounge, A sign he is holding saying "Nerf Guards 4tehwin!" and he is giving us the middle finger with his other hand.</P> <P> </P> <P>There ya go, Facts are facts and I believe we as guardians have finally caught you gaige, you rascal.</P> <P>However, I feel that gaige may actually be a pawn in the SOE supercorp industry so watch yer back gaige!!!</P>

<P><EM>You people attacking Gaige in a congratulatory thread have some strong personal issues that need to be dealt with.  Seriously.</EM></P> <P><EM>I've read the guardian forums for the past couple weeks.  I've even gone so far as to study them, as our guild leader is a guardian and I wanted to have the best and least-biased approach at what he's going through.  I've read every single post on what can be improved, what has been ommited, how much brawlers are overpowered and every flame to anyone who thinks otherwise.  Everything.</EM></P> <P><EM>I trully hope you find enjoyment out of your class one day - everyone deserves that.  I don't like seeing anyone have to leave because they feel they've been cheated and left behind.  But what makes me pity you all, and have little remorse for you is the fact you're a bunch of cannibals.  You attack any guardian that seems to have found a niche for themselves or offer to help rest of you.  You shoot them down, before even congratulating them or considering them.  Unreal.</EM></P>

[crunchybob]

<P>Back to the original topic of this thread.</P> <P>Gratz Gaige.</P> <P>Now on to other business. The rest of this thread has me alternately laughing at the idiots and weeping for the future.  You people are the same brand of idiots that told the mystics to suck it up for the first 10 months of the game while thier wards didnt mitigate, then whined like punk beotches when you died in a group with a mystic healer. Nothing will ever be good enough for you and nothing will ever satisfy you except to belittle someone on these boards. You live to flex your little flaccid e-peens to the leeroy jenkins movie while you post stupid things about players who actually try to make changes to the game because thats much easier than actually working for change to your own class. </P> <P>I don't know enough about Gaige to say what he's done and what he hasn't. I play a mystic and a berserker -  but it's obvious he's working for the change in the monk community, while you sit there and flame - because working for actual change to your own class would be too much like work. If you don't like what he's done, then DO something about it rather than sit there and wank your vitriol at him. His actions aren't the problem, your inaction is.</P> <P>Oh, and its just a game. Turn it off once in a while and maybe you'll gain some perspective.</P>
