You talking about buriedpast? I could have sworn he was an old IB/TR guy, just cant remember who. I don't think I'd recognize the name if it was just some rando redbro. I only acknowledge the existence of other members of the pixel nobility like myself, and us blue aristocrats always viewed the red hard-cores as "new money". They may have been rich in BiS loot, but all the BiS loot just couldn't make up for that intangible quality - a way of carrying one's self - that comes with years of oppressing casuals.
How did you get this way? Was it something that happened in High School? Or was it a lifetime of being inconsequential?

You just dont understand the life of a norrathian aristocrat. Growing up I attended the best private schools in freeport and spent summer at my family's winery on the shores of Lake Rathe. It was a charmed life, but I'll neer forget the day my father, the viscount of freeport, sat me down and told me our pixel wealth came at a cost. As p99 nobility, it was our sworn duty to maintain the natural order. All those carefree days playing polo on the plains of karana, or sailing our yachts in the ocean of tears, were compensation for the service we provided ensuring the pixel economy remained in balance.

As an outsider all you see is our BiS loot and rare vanity items, but you don't consider the stress and responsibility that comes with ruining the playing experience of others. Ensuring casuals are empty husks, ever striving for those pixels we dangle just beyond their grasp, isn't something we do for ourselves - we do it to protect casuals from knowing what it is like at the top. We can't all be the 1%, and it is cruel to allow a taste of the a pixel filled life you simply cannot understand. Its like when red necks win the lottery, blow all their money, and then say they wished they'd never won all that money because it ruined their lives.

So, your welcome.
