    Tanking replaced by a DDR style minigame, game comes with dance pad, a fit, lean generation of nerds emerges as a result.

    Apparently if you type /getdown in battle, it will keep interrupting the enemy targetting you. I've only tested it on "boss" type enemies like this guy and an NPC sniper in the nearby area.

    People are being banned for using that so beware

    I'm sorry but is that an unnaturally dull and bland planet or do they all look like that?

    Cause that looks like fucking shit.

    If I could, as a bear druid, get up on my hind legs in bear form and pelvic thrust as a taunt, I would start playing WoW again.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    you know about drug stuff

    help me understand the reasoning for this

    let's say my doctor gives me a script for 30 adderall on march 1st

    but i fill it on march 3rd because i was jerking my dicks or whatever

    then let's say my doctor gives me a script for 30 adderall on april 1st

    but i fill it on april 2nd

    they won't let me fill it on april 2nd, saying i have to have at least 30 days between filling it

    that doesn't make sense to me- it's thirty days since i COULD have filled it, right?

    like, i still have the same supply for the same period

    is the concern that i'm going to OD, or something?

    it seems really silly

    More that you're going to sell it.

    yeah but i mean

    couldn't i do that at any point?

    i still can't possibly get any more than 60 pills between the dates of march 1st and april 30th

    True, but it releases them from liability in this case. They've only supplied you with the prescribed amount for the prescribed time.

    I like how they've given like excessive warnings with that shit and people are getting banned, and then places like reddit are getting all up in arms about people getting banned for something you can do in the game. It's like, what the fuck retards you were told not to do it.

    If dancing isn't currently permitted outside of special dance zones why the hell can people even have something happen if they use the dance emote outside of those zones?

    'nichu you might also just be running into a pharmacist's policy. I know the law is much stricter with narcotics (adderall, oxycontin, etc), but from working in pharmacies I know that the pharmacist has a lot of leeway in general as far as whether they want to accept or dispense a given script.

    What gets me is the /getdown command.

    The /breakdance berserker attack.

    And a /moonwalk escape from combat.

    By being an MMO? Having to deal with players that aren't my friends who I really don't care about. $15 monthly fee. Terrible MMO combat. (I guess they could have put terrible MMO combat into a single player game but somehow I think people would call it out on being terrible MMO combat if it was a single player game, but won't call it out in an MMO because it is par for the course.)

    I'm looking forward to the day when electronic prescriptions are the standard in the UK.

    They're SO convenient in Sweden.

    like when my doctor called yesterday and was all "yeah you're culture's back so I'm going to prescribe you some antibiotics" "okay cool"

    then I could go directly the pharmacy - show my ID and boom medicines.
