From a logical perspective and given the text contained below is applicable to D2X 1.10, players who seek success should adhere to the following guidelines; one would find it states they who do obey them will generally enjoy more than comes to whom that does not.

(Discovered by a pile of cast off treasure , undelivered as of yet )

Dear Mr. Nilithak ,
Thank you so very much for leaving a red portal open on my doorstep <_< , and I truly appreciate the rumors you spread about me having a stash of Windforces - now those obnoxious "adventurers" have created a bizarre form of software that constantly harasses me day and night , only taking items they deem "uber" :blink: ; can the undead never rest around here ?!? If something is not done about the constant disruptions to my sleep of the undead soon , I shall report you to the Head Administrator , Mr. Baal - and don't tell me to wait for patch 1.10 , you know that will not fool the loot grabbers for long !!

Great , here they come again .......

Hot or Hot

It was a hot day at the Hellforge, bone-searingly hot, so hot that MSLE Haephesto paused briefly at his work of forging worthless Tal runes to wonder if it was hotter than usual, before remembering this was both Hell and a forge, and thus by definition always pretty freaking hot--when suddenly a hail of piercing guided arrows from off screen cut him down as he shouted "WTF? Trigger!!".

The Glorious Adventures of Corian_Countertop, part Deux

Corian_Countertop trudged grimly through the thin muck and discarded carapaces littering the twisting tunnels of the aptly-if-unimaginatively-named Maggot Lair, stalking The Big Honkin' Immobile Maggot of legend, when suddenly the thought occurred to him that if goddamned (literally!) insects could traverse this thing on a daily basis, why was Raoul, his otherwise trusty merc and boon companion, hung up in a corner halfway across the level?

We have the roll, now for the...

Corian_Countertop, burdened with the swag of ages to the point where he could carry no more, stepped through the portal back to Kurast only to be greeted with a strange sight, for Cain was not alone--a toadying young fellow busied himself making coffee, while a prim secretary expertly took Cain's suddenly interrupted long-winded dictation, and two fellows with eyeshades and adding machines worked the books of the item-ID racket of Cain, who raised his head and said grandiosely to Corian, "Behold, the lost Horadric Staff have returned!".

edit: (Okay, so it's the fourth, not the third. I never claimed I could count.)

...so I cannot tell you how much I've enjoyed your stuff.

Crap, I should've worded that differently.

Thread's turning out great, guys! Keep the goofball rolling. :)

(Bonus points for whoever guesses the title.)

To patch, or not to patch--that is the question
whether 'tis nobler on the 'net to suffer
the arrows and bolts of outrageous cheaters
or to take names against a realm of maphack,
and by opposing end it; to patch--to fret
no more; and by a patch to say we end
the waiting, and the thousand such bugfixes
those chars are heir to; tis a consummation
devoutly to be wish'd.

Oh, Ug, how fine you look in your armor so snug,
your rippling muscles so like a tightly woven rug,
they make me squeal with joy as you wail on paladins smug,
and so my dear, you be very careful in Act II with that big bug…
…oh, give me a hug, you, you, Ug!

Uther staggered into Harrogath, staggering from pain and exhaustion, and found the town completely deserted; the only sound audible was the chant, from the far off rogue encampment, of "POTAL POTAL!".

God help us all.

Zulg, a battle-hardened necromancer of 357 years, strolled into town, his pale skin seeming to glow in the moonlight, as he continued his quest for one who could teach him the ultimate skill of necromancy: White Flash of the Full Moon.

A cookie for anyone who can get that would a lot of thought :P

There was Wirt, sullen, destitute, shivering, and cowering alone in the shadows of Charsi’s makeshift tent, beads of sweat trickled down to the tip of his hawkish nose, as he racked his brain muttering, “Why are these psychopaths ruining my life, first they kill my rescuer, The Butcher, and now they huddle around the fire here in the rogue's camp, chanting their curse “Wug, Wug, get leg, make, make, omfg, make u n00b, get leg, get leg”…what a nightmare, I hope they don't loot my corpse!

Good one. I was thinking about doing a tongue twister, but you took the idea faster. I'm waiting for inspiration to strike me for my fourth entry.
