Reader comments — ahh, yes, the juicy goodness following a meaty post. [1.Local] ducks past the swinging doors to see what readers have been chatting about in the back room over the past week.
With raiders prancing around blue posts like nervous Nellies and even casual players holding their breath in anticipation of Patch 3.3, comments can take on a particularly volatile tone. It’s times like these when we most appreciate reminders of how WoW’s players, not the game mechanics, are what actually make the game the compelling community that it is.
Colleen: I’m the infamous Nythyx in one of [Tazeria's] stories. My character was getting constantly flamed on the server; seriously, it was bad. People really didn’t like me, and I was trying to figure out how to remedy the situation. Someone suggested that I send Taz a tell and ask her to incorporate me into one of her stories. All these forum trolls and trade chat trolls would say, “Who’s Nythyx?” whenever they saw me, so Taz figured out a way to make it truly funny instead of hurtful. I’ll always appreciate her doing that for me. =)
