I totally understand that you are just playing around, but it's comments like those that glorify drinking to the weak minded. TBH, no, I don't appreciate anyone's drunken post's. I don't mean to sound harsh, but I have seen what alchohol does, and it made me bitter(er).




ever feel REALLY immature when somebody makes a lucid, honest post that contains morals and ethics and all of a sudden you feel like you have neither?
yeah, that's me right now.


To be fair, you have to admit that it's safer for someone to be at home, on their computer, posting about being drunk, rather than walking or (God forbid) driving around and getting into trouble. I don't think drinking is the problem, I think its the fact that people drink irresponsibly. So long as people know that safety is first, then drinking and drunkeness are okay, in my book. But when people start putting themselves (or others) in danger, that's when drinking isn't funny or even slightly entertaining. Safe drinking can lead to a lot of odd and interesting times, but the most important part is being responsible.

This is horrible! I return to find my new title on the forum is "Jedi". What's up with that? If they wanted to confer that I'm rare and learned, they'd make my title RANGER. and then make it camo colored.

I don't want to get into a huge debate and I didn't mean to make you feel bad (I seem to be good at that today), I was just speaking my peace. I do think the MMO type games are more influencing on weak minds, so if the raise the rating to M, I could at least accept this.

Speaking of which, i've got a humorour story from Sunday night.


I landed on Kashyyyk, in my full scout trooper armor (minus the helmet). All around the starport area where 5-10 members of an all wookiee guild on Lowca named WOK (Warriors of Kashyyyk i think). Just to be funny, the first thing out of my mouth when i finished loading was:


"Ok, time to go enslave some Wookiees!"



you wouldn't believe how many growls and roars i got. one of the wookiees even has a macro set up to say:


: rips %TT's arm off.


so it would say: "[wookiee'sname] rips Oreet's arm off."


was pretty funny, especially since i was the only Imperial player in sight.

ahh, don't worry about it. I understand where you're coming from and I totally understand why, in general, the spreading of drinking as something "cool" does little to help the alchohol problems many students face and the younger and younger age at which kids are trying alchohol. I'm not trying to make you feel like a wet sock (though I'm not even sure how you would know what that feels like, without toes.)


Either way, I drink responsibly. 'cause that's the truly cool thing to do. right kids?
