Nerdy. That's what I am. People despise me despite my academically intellectual mind. Is it my fault that I'm socially incapacitated? I think not. I'm just too serious and focused to even think of popularity and parties that other teenagers my age are so obsessed with. In that world of hypocrites and fakes, I find myself alone, drinking in my misfortunes in the world of party-goers.

Sulking and moping around have been part of my daily routine as I've realized I'll never be given a chance to be accepted, respected, loved. Looking for the only thing that could accept me as I am without misjudgments and misconceptions, I found myself slowly attracted to the mystical world of MMORPG.

Supernatural beings awoke and befriended me and I can't help but accept that loving gesture that I have been deprived of in my real world. Seeking the comfort that I need, I found it in the company of cyber-supernatural creatures. Although academically gifted, I have not been once asked an opinion of things as I've always avoided joining groups, in fear of being mocked at again. WoW brought out the best in me. Conquering quests had me use my logical thinking I didn't know I have, has enhanced my analytical thinking, and surprisingly had given me a social life I've always longed for.

I was able to show them what I'm worth of without needing to boast for what I know and without my trying hard to impress them. The knowledge that wasn't recognized had been given credit here as I became a Guild Master. Popularity that I was never longing for had been given freely, of which I willingly accepted. A feeling of respect for myself washed over me. Again, I believed and I respected myself. I lost these two and never thought of gaining it back again. With WoW, everything became possible again. -Gamepal.com

gamepal07 Bankruptcy The Only Real Enemy in MMORPG Mar 14th, 2007 12:37:41 am - Subscribe
Monsters and other supernatural creature I can take. Being broke? Definitely not. This is the worst thing that could happen to gamers, and I know a lot of them couldn't help but agree. We rely on our bread to keep continuing WoW, to keep enjoying it and to keep leveling up. My mom recently took off my playing privileges as our electric bill exceeded far and beyond high since I started playing WoW. I was exaggerating that but it was really beyond our normal bill. It was the saddest day in my life when I got that awfully bad news. How unlovely could that be right? Being taken out of my own world.

Being a gamer is hard, financially. I'd always have to worry that my prepaid card will run out anytime and that my Internet connection would suddenly go down and then I'd freak out! And then there's the fact that I don't always have the luxury of time. I'd have to consult the aid of an MMORPG service provider just to keep up with the game and the guild.

Rather than sulking myself to sleep that night, I decided that first thing tomorrow morning, I'd find myself a job. This is the only thing that made me get my axx of the couch and look for a job. Amazing what a virtual world could do to change a person's life! Haha! I told my mom I'd go look for a job and made a deal that if I found one, I'd pay for the part of the bill from now on, that I'd also be the one responsible for our internet account and all the level-up cards that I need to buy. She agreed and everything went smoothly as I got a job as a bagger and I was able to support my gaming habit.

I really hate being broke! I mean, as I've said before, I can take supernatural creatures but bankruptcy is beyond my control! MMORPG took a lot of part to result to me being broke but I enjoyed every part of it. I've said it before and I'll say it again, bankruptcy id the only real enemy in MMORPG. Well, in my case, that is. -Gamepal.com

gamepal07 Hell No! I don't want to be stripped off my Guild! Mar 14th, 2007 1:02:22 am - Subscribe
I just received the saddest news of my life! I'm a candidate to be disbanded from my Guild! Lately, due to a lot of work in the office, I haven't been able to log in to WoW for me to play my character and be present in our daily raids and battles. This is the pits! I mean if it wasn't for WoW I'd be out of my mind right now, it's the only thing keeping me sane, really! And now, I'm going to be taken out of my league? That is too much for one person to take, well for gamers that is. This is probably the worst pet peeve that I have! Lol!

Anyway, I just want to vent out my anger, I've already taken cared of that annoying little pet peeve. In my utter frustration, I sought the help of emergency 911(I'd like to call it that way! They really saved my ass in the game!) in MMORPG – the service providers. I made an account with GamePal and ordered a Power Level service and I'm back in the game! After just three days, I was no longer a candidate to be fired from the Guild and I was even more powerful, with my character reaching 5 levels higher! I was really happy about the result and I wouldn't have a second thought of using it once a crisis strikes again! Haha!

Whoever said these service providers are illegal is really out of his mind! It's ridiculous to even think that way! They were especially made for workers like us who are just as addicted as every gamer yet cannot boast of a luxury in time. It helps us always be updated in the game even with other priorities in life. And we get to play the most thrilling parts in the game! Beat that!

gamepal07 Illegality in the MMORPG World?I think not! Mar 14th, 2007 1:03:45 am - Subscribe
Yes, even in the gaming world, illegality exists. Sad but true. It's illegal in the eyes of the game developers, but loved most specially by loyal online gamers. It has been one tough battle since MMORPG services became available in the market between those who provide them and the game developers.

These service providers ( a sample of which is gamepal.com, which I'm really a fan of) have been charged of violating the laws which govern the excitement, thrill, and experience that MMO's offer its loyal constituents. Taking out the essence of the game by making it easy for gamers – this is the hardest and heaviest case they have been put against. Developers insist that it would be best if players are left alone to play their own game, learn from it, and then gain experience and be known for their unique build. Traditional, really, much like what happens in real life. But we want to do away with reality from time to time right? Okay, so MMOs are a simulation of life's system, difficulties and experience, but we want to feel something different in MMORPG. And the difference lies in the MMORPG service providers.

The end justify the means – an adage so old and used it has become a favorite to frequent defenders. This is just the same with them. I mentioned that we want to do away with real life for a while, well that's exactly what MMOs offer. But hey, did I mention that getting out of a certain level is the hardest? Well, there you go. Also getting guilded is just as hard! The excitement comes with being guilded and making raids and battling out as a team. Back to that adage, MMORPG service providers gives me exactly what I want and need. True, I gained experience with their help but now I enjoy a more powerful character, guilded by one of the best Guilds, and savoring the life of the infamous as I am considered one of those who has the top builds in our Guild. I say, I say thank you! To the geniuses behind these service providers! Cheers!

gamepal07 Living the Life in WoW Mar 14th, 2007 1:04:49 am - Subscribe
In real life, I admit that I really do pretend to be someone else, one that I want to be. Reasons for this would be obvious – acceptance and popularity. The feeling of acceptance and appreciation is far more important for me than being identified as who I really am inside. This may be bad for others as pretending is sometimes an unforgivable crime in the social community of friends. While some have fallen for the guised me, there are still many who have the sense to doubt my actions and my stories. Mind you, I don't make up unbelievable stories of my life. Most I got from other people's stories that I've heard about. It's not an easy thing to do and consistency is the real name of the game. One different story from the first that I told and then a loophole is found.

With different sets of friends, I have different sets of stories to tell about my life. It's not that I'm a liar, I just don't want to open up to anyone. Lying and not trusting are two different things. Other than my family, no one knows exactly who I am in real life.

Though I am like this in real life, I am totally different when in WoW. The real me, I show to my online friends. They may not know it, but the one they're conversing with - personality, ideas, and all - is the naked me. When I play WoW, I expose myself with all my flaws to the virtual environment.

I feel safe and at home around trolls, orcs, undead, and other unearthly creatures. In WoW, we are all camouflaged and since that is the case, I might as well drop the mask I have in reality. The thousands of miles distance gives me the assurance that I'll never meet them IRL, so it's safe to be just me.

I know this is really odd for many, but that's just how I want to run my life. Trusting people IRL has never been appealing to me. Knowing that they can easily misjudge you for a word unintended to harm but otherwise did. And then you're left to face them and even though explanation has been presented, they still bombard you with senseless questions just to harm your being. Then you can't help but just give up and leave them be with what they believe.

In WoW, I take full responsibility of my actions and my ideas, if it in any way caused harm. I can face up to the challenge with my head held high as I know that I'm not face to face with them and they can do no damage in my personality IRL. You may arrive at the conclusion that I am coward, and in some way I have to admit. I have no strength to defend my actions face to face. Thus, in order to avoid backstabbing people IRL, I just create a new being, one that's totally different from the real me, so that they could misjudge me all they want and I wouldn't be left sulking on how it had hurt me so much.
