This was a fun incident I just found in some logs...wasn't too long ago though. Unfortunately I've lost all my ancient logs to formats/crashes. Basically Ka was mounted and traveling somewhere over the ocean, bumps into wanderer, and can't flee because he is mounted, and cant dismount because he is in combat. Took me forever to get unlooted. Rawr. I may be missing parts of the convo because the log is freaking huge, but you get the general idea. Not too interesting, but i found it humorous.

 review:\
 Jyan: so where abouts in ocean were you looted\
 Tuls: i was looted on the very tip of xixi docks\
 Tuls: couldnt dismount my horse\
 Jyan: ah\
 Jyan: hm\
 Tuls: meaning he could be anywhere;P\
 Kithmar: Can you mindsight him? Not that it would help, but just curious.\
 Jyan: negative\
 Tuls: it would help tons, and you cant.\
 Tuls: i fucking hate this game\
 Frontline: god, me too.\
 Frontline: :)\
 Tuls: ;P\
 Tuls: its probably the lowpoint in both of our lives.\
 Frontline: you don't have to pay $$30+ a month for it though

 Frontline gossips, 'it's more expensive than my cell phone'\
 You gossip, 'this is true'\
 You gossip, 'you dont have anything driving you to run around on the ocean at 2:15 in the morn either tho'\
 Frontline gossips, 'hehe what are you missing?'\
 You gossip, 'Ka's eq, on the wanderer, on the ocean(?)'\
 Frontline gossips, 'yep.\
 You gossip, 'hard to tell with a !track !sight mob....i got looted because i couldnt dismount, because i was fighting'\
 Frontline gossips, 'well the fact that he's !track !sight hardly matters if he's on the ocean anyway, right?'\
 Morda gossips, 'well...you can find out where on the ocean he is'\
 Morda gossips, 'and you could know where he is now...ie xixi/kd'\
 Frontline gossips, 'well he's near the coast I can tell you that'\
 Morda gossips, 'thanks. which coast? haha'\
 You gossip, 'haha...what drove me to get off my butt and stop watching softcore porn on cinemax, i dont know.'\
 Rydia gossips, 'wasn't hard enough!'\
 You gossip, 'normally my overly strong sex drive gets me in trouble....the lack of it tonight did'

 Yup it's just about that time where i wonder what i'm doing reading that post on my forum that i paid about...15 dollar a month for... after having been killed by xedent in the Kir draxin slums... made for an interesting log if you appreciate a bored Immortal getting his kicks with a sleepy player...\
 moral of the story is: save your money and don't play the mud when the imms take a break from coding.

definitely a log for the humor section. as for saving your money, without money we wouldn't have the awesome mud and this oh-so glorious webpage! besides, it's just money!

Hah, I have a ton of good Imm quotes....Unfortunately they mostly deal with me. If I go home(and my bro hasn't formatted my old pc) I'll try to get a few more up on here. I really wished I believed in logging back in the day. I don't think I logged anything for the first 3 years I played;P.
