This guild has a long and honoured history of soul-stoning the mage. Just ask Viraj.

We also have a history of battle rezzing rogues.

Valneron started it, for what it's worth.

This did not happen.

Just like Strat did not happen.

I can't count the number of times I've accidentally greeded on BOP items. It used to happen so often that now I don't click either button until I read AND RE-READ the status of an item.

But if it's BoP, you get the "Are you sure?" message.

Well, my most embarrassing moment in WoW was with a VS group in the early days. We had cleared about half of Scholo through the Viewing Room. We wiped, we all ran back and were healing & buffing up on the bridge. I brought out my demon and we all jumped off the bridge into the Viewing Room. Well...pets don't jump. I stood there for a couple of minutes wondering where my Voidwalker went. Then he was nice enough to join us...along with every single mob that had respawned along the way. We wiped again.

That's the kind of mistake any pet summoning class makes only once. Well, so far anyway.

That I would love to see a screen shot of.... I can see in my mind's eye now... Voidwalker followed by 827 mobs coming up to you and saying, 'Hi, I'm back!'.... roflmao..

I was there for that run Zan is talking about, and it was both hilarious and awesome. We were all down there on the stairs that lead to Ras Frostwhisper's room, and then suddenly there were a million mobs eating us in the face.

It was awesome.

Especially since it was a 'lock, because you KNOW the enslaved demons would do it on purpose.

I've been trying to think of some and I can't really come up with any. I know for a fact I have had asshat moves, but nothing I guess I am too embarrassed by, at least in game.

There was a situation on the boards that still gets me every time. Back when I was (even more so) an asshole and the whole Dominicide crap was going on. Someone had posted a very unflattering picture of themselves and in my drunken angry stupor I made a comment about it, something similar to 'Looks like Bruce Vilanch & Michael Moore's love child'. Which I will hold as a very true statement to this day.

Moments later I got a PM from one of the better Dominicide guys, one that I actually talked to now and then and he asked me to remove the comment because 'she' was very nice and didn't deserve the comment. Wait.. what? WHAT? OH GOD THAT IS A GIRL?

Luckily 'she' didn't see the comment and I deleted my post.

I know, I'm an asshole.

Once, before I moved servers, I was running something or other with my old guild using TeamSpeak with voice activation. And we were playing along, and, well, I'll say that I wasn't feeling entirely well in the digestive regions that day.

So, I farted really loud a couple of times, and then I put my game into window mode and off to the side of my game window I saw my little megaphone icon LIGHT UP with the farting.

In addition to that being my most embarrassing moment, that is my admonition for anyone who is not using push to talk to please use push to talk, 'cause it picks up more than farts, srsly.

Heehee. Breathing, lip-smacking, throat-clearing, and farting.

Please use push-to-talk.

I've also had a few interesting events happen with my hunter pet. Once in an instance I jumped and had my pet do the whole "show up later with half the instance trailing behind".

Then, one time in Uldaman, I decided that I was sick of my pet coming back to me after every kill. I decided to put him on agressive. Everything was fine at first. We stopped at a corner and we were talking stragetgy when my pet up and ran right into the room up the hall. I was stunned! I could have sworn we were far enough away from the mobs in that room. Anyway, after they were done snacking on my poor pet they came and chewed our asses right up. It's a good thing I was in a group with friends or I would've been booted right there.

Another good reason for PTT:

Dual monitor configuration and watching porn while instancing

Not that I ever do...

Oh Push to Talk... yes I learned my lesson well LoL At least it was in guild chat, and I think during an officer meeting in LoC that I learned that lesson by belching really, really loud. At the time I was the only female officer, and there was dead silence for a few seconds before someone said anything. And of course those guys couldn't just let that slide LoL So yeah Push to Talk became my bestest friend ever.

As for embarassing Loot stories, for some reason an old guildie of mine was "training" me to become a raid leader, and we were doing UBRS (pre-bc time) a freaking ton, with her and I leading and assisting so I could learn marking and master loot and all that good crap. Everything was going pretty well on one run, we had a partial PuG with members of Gestalt and LoC (Gestalt being way more advanced than LoC, they were there to ensure we actually could finish the damn instance) and it had been a long, long night. Well we finally get the Beast down after five attempts, and Finkles drops for one of our skinners, and the Lock boots. There was only one Lock so that was a no brainer, the Lock got the boots automatically, then there was a rolling for Finkles, and our Warrior (and a fellow officer) won... so what did I do? Yeah, I gave Finkles and the freaking boots to the damn Lock. All I see in Officer Chat is "Aery, wtf did you just do?" And everytime we were on together he'd say "Where's my knife bitch?", thankfully he was okay with it and found it hilarious, but I refused to ever touch masterloot again. At least between the hours of 1 and 3 am.

SPECIAL NOTE

For those that have the ingame push to talk key mapped to the same key as Vent push to talk: If you're in a pug and talking on vent.... strangers WILL hear you.

And you will hurt their feelings when you wonder if they were hit on the head as a child and thus cannot spell or compose sentences that make sense.

I think I still win this. >_< Though Rapskallion comes a close second.
Never really had a problem with loot rules. I always got the Need/Green thing though I had some trouble with the BoPs and the fact that some people want you to ask to need and then link what you currently have to need.

So so so glad I didn't chose a hunter for my first chara (Thanks to Lyn). That pet thing continually confuses me.

Okay, I've got one. Last night!

Here we are, in Gruul's Lair, going up against Gruul. Fox hands out the assignments, telling every group which side of the room to go to. I'm all excited, woo hoo, never been here before! Damn, he's big! I'm in Group 4, so I'm supposed to be on the South side of the room. The fight starts, and I charge off to the south side of the room! Raaaaar!

We die, eventually. Okay, regroup, go back in. I charge back to the south side of the room, heroically, mental trumpet-fanfare blaring! We die.

On the way back, Frenial (in party chat, mercifully) says, 'Val, group 4 is supposed to be on the south side of the room.' Oh ho, I protest! 'I was on the south side.' Fren says, 'Hmm, you showed up on the north side on my screen.' 'The entrance is on the north side. I was opposite that.'

Just as I'm saying this, I get back to the Lair....where I'm entering, y'know, from the south. And Fren says, 'Um, no, the entrance is on the south. You were opposite.'

And I said, 'Oh my god, I'm an idiot.'

There's really just no excuse for that. Mixing up east and west, sure. North and south? That takes pure genius.

True story in this vein: I have a giant pink L and R written on the top corners of my monitor, due to the GREAT AND VAST number of times that Jam/Fren/Fox/Gleja/Anyone Leading has said, "Ing, you'll be on the right."

Ing goes left.

"... your other right, Ing."

...I am so taking a picture of said giant letters when I visit.
