As soon as I make some kinda comment about being bored with the guild, don't we go and start a killing spree :D I swear, people actually DO read this hehe. Actually, we raided last night thanks to the efforts of a bunch of really desperate members trying to start things themselves (with little support. Hard to get people to do stuff if they are not being forced), thankfully, before we went and killed ourselves, my favorite halfling (yea, I got a soft spot for a few shorties...) stepped in and made it an official event (meaning people had no choice but to show up Mwahaha).

I did have a twinge of EQ depression today, when I was looking at all the work I've done, and realized that some of my best isn't even being used anymore. Bitzn, Kat, Ash, Caanus, Adark, Lumi, Oogy are all retired characters now, and a few have been sold off on sites like PlayerAuctions. Names get changes, personality's change, and effectively, the person, the character the art was created for dies, the only remaining manifestation of who they were is a few bits of data on my server. :( Maybe I just miss old times and old friends. It's really scary how attached you get to people whom you don't even really know just by playing a game.

Back in the Real World (tm) the FNG at work learned a valuable lesson today. Random acts of kindness lead to indifference, indifference leads to disappointment, disappointment leads to anger, anger leads to hatred, and hatred makes you a better tech! :D basically, FNG did a really nice thing involving hands and knees type cleaning for another department, said department did not reciprocate that kindness (I.E. waved and walked out) when we were stuck with an assload of work to do after the store closed tonight. Now FNG understands why we don't like to help people...after all, being nice to people is how we got to become store "cover my lunch/do my job for me" bitches, and we're still trying to get that stigma removed.
