Click click click BOOM!

To start things off, I am not a person who is affiliated with any kind of religion. I am a person without such views who see things as they are, believe what they are, and formulate opinions on my own free will. I say what I wish to say. I do what I wish to do. I believe what I want to believe. If there are people visiting this blog of mine who are Catholic, Christian, Jewish, or whatever, and know who I am in the game of Guild Wars, you are about to read and hear my personal opinion and crituque of a variety of things that have transpired during my time of playing the game.

The guild I am in happens to be a Christian-themed guild. Now, the people in the guild already acknowledges that I am one who has no affiliation with any religion. They know well enough that I do not argue for or against their views. My view is different from them and I will not spark hot debate about their ways and methods. I leave that alone. And they respect that.

Recently the guild and the original alliance have merged with another alliance. The alliance will then be controlled by them, as the guild will be invited into it. That means the rules will have changed. How much, I did not know. I was not made aware of any such major rules prior to the merge taking place. And information about such thing was not known as there is no centralized place to relay such message and information.

So as time passed, there are some things that pop up that would have me wondering. But it was a minor issue and I let it pass as it was nothing. These issues normally center around language use. Take a deep breath and breathe out. Ready for this? Okay.

Their supposed language use prohibits some of the most basic verbal terms in existance. Now, I personally know how foul-mouthed I can be when it comes to saying such things. Yes, I can lash out and say so-and-so is one mother-fucking shit-eating asshole. But I know control and I can control how I speak. After all, I had time to learn to adapt to control my verbal usage everywhere else. However, in the age of the Internet, we have plenty of acronyms to go around, from LOL to ROFL to OMG and LMAO. I cannot use the common phrase "Oh my God!" as they would have beef with it. So they're going to do what? Bitch to me about it? And bitched they did when I used it.

I went to a Catholic school when I was a kid. I knew well enough of some of the supposed "Ten Commandments" that was taught to kids there. But that is not enough to change me into some religious nutcase who take everything into consideration and obey it all down to the letter. I am not that stupid to fall for that kind of shit. I will point out that... if your God and Lord Jesus Christ is always so forgiving, why the fuck are you going to bug the shit out of me on abusing its name?! The name has been thrown around left and right in every shape, way, and form. Don't bitch to me on my usage of God's name. If I want to say OMG, I WILL say it. Don't complain or whine to me on how I should not take the name in vain. Otherwise, I say bullshit to you and your stubborn mind.

Another case involving language is the usage of the word "hell." Yeah, we've heard about it. We've known about it. People joke and say "We're all going to hell for this." And movies coined the phrase "I'll see you IN HELL!" And I use it like it was a normal word, not a care in the world. And what do I get for using such a word? More bitching, whining, and complaining.

(takes a deep breath) What the FUCK is wrong with you fucktards?! I cannot use the word hell?! What the HELL is up with that? What the HELL kind of a rule is that? What the HELL do you expect me to do? Use a different term? If you wanna ban the use of the word hell, I'll retort to you assholes and say that you ban the use of the word HEAVEN. Why? Because I believe in equal-opportunity. Hell has been in use for years. I do not see anything wrong with using it freely like I have.

The latest bitching now comes in the form of my usage of a software application that is used to automate mouse clicking. Now, before anyone say anything, I am full aware on the technical rulings on the use of automation tools as well as macros. I am full aware of what happens when ArenaNet find my use/activity to be unacceptable. But I will argue this: Are you going to sit on your fat ass watching the progress meter go up minute by minute? And why was I using such a tool? Simple, an achievement title in the game calls for the consumption of alcoholic beverages where its effect wears off and its time logged and tallied. The effect wears off in 60 seconds and to achieve the first and second tier, you must spend (respectively) 1,000 and 10,000 minutes drunk. Again I argue: Are you going to sit on your fat ass watching every single minute of your progress meter? Most are going to answer: HELL NO.

Then I was accused of cheating in the game. Cheating? Are they fucking serious? Cheating? What the fuck am I cheating at? AT TIME?! FUCKTARDS, all of them! FUCK them. Fuck their views. Fuck their diety. They can praise all they want but it ain't going to save their fucking ass one single fucking bit. Shit happens. That's life. If something good happens, they'll spout bullshit saying it's "His work" and that it's a "miracle." Get with the fucking program. Time to grow up and start thinking on your own for a change. Think outside the box and think differently.

It irritates me to no end on how they "praise God" and all that shit. They don't sound religious. They sound like cheerleading zealots to me. So if you somehow, in some way, stumbled upon this, and know who I am, and know who I am affiliated with, don't start bitching at me in-game about my blog. Don't start whining about it. Don't start crying about it. And don't bother trying to oust me out either. I have a deep personal beef in how things are run and the only reason I have stuck around is because a buddy of mine is in the very guild which I am in. And that individual is one I know and remember for a few years. Don't like my words or my views? Tough luck. Go deal with it.

Hell fuck yeah dude! If I was in a virtual world created by man I would play it so like it is, a playground in which you can express yourself and be free to do what you want to and HAVE FUN!!!

Of course, there is certain respect for other human beings and there beliefs, one should know not to push their beliefs on each other by force, though just because the Zealots thinks is "Good".

I'm with you man, let your emotion be because that's how it should be, to express one's nature in the state it should be which is freedom to do what you will and believe in whatever you have faith in or not.
