Something everyone has done.
Playing in 1999, on some crappy dial up or roadrunner Internet. You come upon an Orc or Gnoll Shaman. Get blinded. See a completely black screen, can't tab out because classic. Figure your computer died or you lost power. Too many Surge or Mountain Dew cans liter the floor for you to easily stand up to turn on a light in your man(boy)-cave to test if the power is indeed out.
So you naturally do the easy thing and restart your computer. Restarts no problem and of course you come back to your character naked at their bind point. The next time it happens you put two and two together. Holy crap... Maybe these shaman mobs can turn my screen off?!?!
