Do we have an in house psychiatrist? I think one is needed here....

Do you really think that this Sam-person is real? I still haven't ready *anything* that can convince me that he is. Every little suggestion and evidence points out he is not (his lack of knowledge of WoW, his website, his commitment, etc. etc.)

---

I believe Sam is real. His claims about owning a million dollars of real estate are less verified. His WHOIS points to a house worth about 120k in the suburbs of CA. Maybe he lives there and owns the property but it just seems... off. I like Sam and the idea of pushing the game to the limit and seeing how far you can go but I am not sure it all adds up.

Not that it matters. I think what Sam and everybody else here is doing is great. Although the hooker thing *IS* a bit odd.

I also think that Sam's concept of WoW, coming into it from EQ may be a bit skewed as to how it will translate and what his goals are. I think he will have fun but I am not sure that he understands the nuances of exactly how this will all play out. I could do 25 or 30 or even 40 accounts at once. But I don't and will not because there is no point. Tier 1 is over and the game has moved in a different direction.

It's a community for people to encourage and provide tips/advice to help each other.

Saying "Finally hit 70 on my squad !!!" is NOT bragging, it's merly an expression of excitement for the work that was involved and it serves to help others to see that lvling to 70 with not 1 but 5 toons is doable and to keep pressing on.

On the other hand, Sam, your comments are poisonous in the fact that you breath unhealthy competition and attempt to put yourself above others.

There is a very clear difference between wanting to share your success with other people who are interested in the things you do, and wanting to lord your supremacy over everyone as is clearly your goal.

I, personally, am FAAAR more impressed by the guy who just comes along one day talking about his efforts soloing Karazhan than I will ever be by your posturing and contriving ways in which you are (soon to be) "the top" at something. You steal the thunder of your own accomplishments by sitting around carping about them before hand. Not to mention that talk's cheap.

When you have characters that are actually able to do something in the game, and further have actually done something in the game, then come back and brag to us about it, k? Until then, you aren't the top two anything - except maybe braggart.

This thread is brilliant. I love it how sam really does care how he's not the "top" boxer. Although he brought in his eq accounts to prove he is. Genius! Keep it up sam please this is funny! :thumbsup:

Sam is easier to tolerate if you just recognize that he is talking to himself, out loud. Yes, it's ego-driven. But it's just his way of approaching games. It doesn't bug me because that's how I view him. Yes, he will surpass me in WORLDWIDE SINGLE TARGET DPS USING TWO BUTTONS OR LESS or whatever metric he has set for himself. He isn't trying to surpass Prepared because he wants to show us how super-cool he is, he is trying to surpass Prepared because it's a goal he set for himself.

It isn't something I have ever tried to understand. It's just Sam. As long as he isn't talking out loud in the movie theatre, he's pretty harmless.

WoW is like a big cartoon

Well, this can't come as a surpise.. After all Warcraft, Warcraft 2, Warcraft III all looked pretty much the same, and the 28 zillion screenshots of world of warcraft on internet kinda help as well.

Warcraft artist emphasize and embellish certain details to make that monster/player stick out from the background texture. It's more of a style and not aiming "real world"--I sure don't want "real world" in a fantasy setting.

Geez give the guy a break, he might be a bit of an odd-ball by some standards (didn't see his old profile picture? ^^) but he's a nice enough guy, just with a different view on things. Typical interwebs...

Yes it would, meaning any mage that got into the middle of the shamans, would take 26-32 lightning shields for however much damage. More hps than the mage has I am sure ;). Taking insta-gib to a whole new level.

Personally, I find Sam to be the source of much amusement and have "known" about him since his Retard Rickshaw days on the FoH forums.

What is most impressive about him is his complete and utter impervious-ness (if there is such a word) to flames/insults. I mean, for heaven's sake, I would be a pile of ashes with some of the verbal abuse directed his way, but he seems completely immune to it. I think he may be a Turing machine, but of course we'll never know.

Still, if I find someone in real life to be acting like a jackass in my home or somewhere that I frequent, I have no qualms in calling him or her a jackass.

Sam has switched his focus to WoW at present because it's the most popular MMORPG around and EQ is really going nowhere. I suggest that Sam does what he does more for the "Wow" factor (pardon the pun) from onlookers than for the sake of enjoying the game as a game per se. Who cares, whatever floats your boat. Still, this forum was designed for people who enjoy playing a GAME as a GAME, only in a non-typical fashion. So, since we're not all here competing to run the most instances of WoW as compared to everyone else, I will always view Sam's posts with inherent distaste, as they seem to be more attention-whoring than anything else.

And as far as Prepared is concerned, his original post was, IMHO, a question based mostly on curiosity. I come to this site because I am interested in how other people are multi-boxing to see if I can improve my gameplay at all. I have learned a ton from the site, and I will post here for the sake of improving my gameplay and hopefully answer a few questions from others along the way that may help them out.

Sam, you win at WoW. No one will ever be better than you, because if they ever do something more than you do, you will just one-up them. So you win.

Now go away and play the game.
