List the weird things that playing the game made you do in real life.

1. Answered the phone at work one day "This is Krack, can I help you?"

2. Faked sick for a friends wedding and even a work so I could make an event in game.

3. Played for almost 2 days straight and finally the night I slept, I woke up in middle of night to use bathroom, I sat down on the can, fell asleep, woke up 4 hours later with my legs cramped and a floater staring back at me.

4.Invited a friend (Zelly) to Mexico for a week then Vegas for a few days all the while calling him by his game name even tho ive known him for many years.


More to come

Square-Enix which art in Tokyo, hallowed be thy game.
Thy expansion come. Thy patches be done, in NA/EU, as it is in Japan.
Give us this day our daily exp.
And forgive us our undercuts, as we forgive those who undercut us.
And lead us not into elitism, but deliver us from n00bs: For thine is the MMORPG, and the addiction, and the timesink, for ever and ever.

1 - referred to myself not only in 3rd person, but by my character name IRL.
2 - Call Ls members and ask for them by game names.
3 - Tell people IRL about friends and refer to them by Game name.

Hahaha...

Seriously though, can any of you tell me you've never been out on a long drive and catch yourself thinking that, just for a second, you could put yourself on /follow and let the guy ahead of you steer?

I told one of my clients, "Thanks for the offer, but i'll have to pass" He giggled, I said, "I'm sorry, I don't know how to answer that" He laughed and says "I play a game that uses those as translations...."

He's on Shiva server.
