So... funny noob sayings into funny noob stories, I suppose >.<
I don't think I've posted this before (I really don't, I even looked)...
I was getting the ballad scroll, and killing time while sitting out in the tower in W. Ronfa. (If you don't know, you zone from the city into the tower, from which you cannot do ANYTHING but talk...)
Anyway, there are the windows, and so I'm running the gamut to test everything to verify that you can't actually do anything (like call a choco). So... being unable to pull bunnies up into the tower, I get bored, and I notice that the newbies running around outside with "?"s are within /say range.
There were a few short lived ones, but the longest was the best...
This is basically what transpires
/say Hey! <t-newbie>! {Can you speak English?} {Help me out!}
Newbie : Yes, I can. Where are you?
/say I'm up here, in the tower! {Help me out!}
Newbie : How did you get in there?
/say I don't know! These elvaan NPCs showed up and told me they didn't like my kind, and they locked me up in here! {Help me out!}
Newbie : They locked you up?
/say Yeah, I think it's because I'm from Bastok and I tried doing one of their quests T_T
Newbie : Is there a guard?
/say No, he's on a patrol route, but he'll be back in about 5 minutes. Can you see the door?
Newbie : What door?
/say There, at the bottom of the tower, there's a door, do you see it?
Newbie : I see it.
/say Open it! {Help me out!}
Newbie : I don't think I should. If you're in jail, how do I know a GM didn't put you there?
/say GMs don't send you to San d'Oria, they send you to Mordion Gaol! Can you please open the door?
Newbie : I'm trying, but it won't let me. I think it's because I'm on a 360.
/say Well damn. You sure you can't open the door?
Newbie : Hold on, I asked a friend to come help you.
Randomperson>> LMAO! Locked in the tower?
Randomperson<< {Help me out!}
Randomperson>> OMW... he says you told him an NPC locked you up in there?
Randomperson<< Yeah, an NPC elvaan >.>
Randomperson>> LOL, that's awesome
*I go AFK and get a drink, gone about 3 mins*
Randomperson : Oh no!
Newbie : Where are you?
Randomperson : I got caught trying to let Arketa out and the elvaan threw me in jail too!
Newbie : I still can't get the door open :(
Randomperson : Just hang tight, we're working on a plan.
Randomperson>> You there?
Randomperson<< Sorry, was AFK.
Randomperson : Arketa, you're a THF, can't you pick the door?
/say They confiscated all my tools T_T
Newbie : Tools?
/say THF needs tools to pick open doors T_T
Newbie : Where do I get tools?
Randomperson : <some guy for him to get tools from> We only need 1
Newbie : I'll be back!
Randomperson>> LMFAO
*long wait ensues*
Newbie : I'm back! How do I give you the tools?
Randomperson : <explains trade>
Newbie : It says "Target out of range."
*by this time am getting sleeeepy*
/say Did you try the door again?
Newbie : Yeah, it's still not working.
/say Hold on, I'll look for another door.
*backs away from windows, until Newbie is lost as a target, counts to 10, returns*
/say There's another door, it looks like it might lead into town, but it's closed from this side.
Newbie : I'll go look!
*another 5 mins or so pass*
*Newbie zones into W. Ronfa inside the tower*
Newbie : Oh no! Now I'm trapped too!
Randomperson : Did you bring the tools?
/say Oooh yeah, trade me now!
*we trade, I pay him 10k for one skeleton key*
Randomperson cheers Newbie on!
Randomperson cheers Arketa on!
/say I'm going to go try the door, wait here.
*zones out into N Sandy*
Newbie<< I got it open! We're free!
*Newbie zones out, Randomperson zones out*
/say OMG Newbie, you're my hero!
Newbie : Yay! They won't pick you up again will they?
/say I don't think so. Man, that's the last time I steal from Raimbroy's Grocery!
Newbie : !@#$!# YOU STOLE FROM THE GROCERY STORE AND HAD ME BUST YOU OUT? YOU @#$!@#$!@#$
