K-NEWS: MMO Bans Men Playing As Women

Wednesday September 26, @01:16PM (from the nice-legs-bob dept.) jkcity writes

"In a bizarre move Aurora Technology the owners of the King of the World MMORPG has taken the unusual step of banning men who play women characters but the ban itself does not stretch to women playing men. If you want to play as a woman now in game you have to prove you are a women via web cam. This is something that people ask for in many mmorpgs I myself have seen people say people who play women in EVE online as being some kind of degenerate but how long can a policy of verification by web cam last since its so easy to get around it doesn't seem to solve much and is an insult to many."

That means one of the admins found out his online girlfriend was a 50 year old guy from Brooklyn.

50-year-old guys from Brooklyn can be pretty tasty.

Actually once somebody gets over 40 years old they start to become a tougher bite and require longer roasting and more sauce. I prefer females between 15 and 20 years old, they are flavorful and tender although some of them excercise a lot and then their organs are the best parts. There was once this census maker, I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti...

So that means...
no role playing in a Role Playing Game?

Sure ... if you're a woman ... for now.

More proposed rules:

• only black people may have black avatars
• only elves may play elves
• if you want STR over 10 you have to bench press 100lbs on webcam
• if you wish your character to speak another language, you must submit a request in writing, in that language, to the admins
• if your CHA is over 15 you can pretty much do what you want, after you seduce one of our admins

So, if you're a guy, especially with a big beard and a deep voice verify anyway.

"But you're a guy"
"How dare you sir!"
"But you have a beard"
"And I'm a little sensitive about it. I'd rather you didn't mention it"
"And a deep voice"
"Yes. A lot of people comment on that."
"I'm not convinced you're a woman"
"I'll strip naked for you to prove it if you prefer"
"Yikes! No. That won't be neccesary. Thankyou for verifying you gender. Have a nice day, maam".

Y ahora un poco de egophotoblogging

Y Kant continúa observando desde su guarida, esperando el momento exacto para atacar... (?)

Encontré una imagen muy copada hace un rato en el sketchblog del autor de Flaky Pastry

descripción (click en la imagen para ver el post original):

They are obviously a Cheerful Witch, a Clingy Zombie, a Shy Werewolf, a Distant Ghost, and an Overbearing Vampire.

que traducido sería:

Son obviamente una bruja alegra, una zombie cariñosa*, una mujer lobo tímida, una fantasma callada**, y una vampira prepotente

* la palabra "clingy" se refiere al verbo "cling" que es "agarrar"
** la palabra original es "distant", o sea "distante"

Los ponjas la recontra liman

No se que ataque le dio a mi cerebro y terminé, no se como, en un blog que que causó mucha gracia mal xDD miren lo que inventarion ahora los ponjas

la traduccion del texto, para el que no sabe ingles(dudo que alguien asi lea el blog) es mas o menos asi: "No estoy muy seguro de como funciona o si algun dia podría llegar a salir de Japon, pero se una cosa, y es que esto parece jugar Magic drogado. Es un juego de Taito en una expo de arcades(fichines para nosotros, otros famosos arcades son el pacman, tetris, uno de Simpsons) en Japon. Aparentemente la pantalla tactil es interactiva, y responde a las cartas que ponen por RFID.(...)"
Lo demas es irrelevante, pero por no saber ingles se pierden el chiste que si lo tradujera no tendría sentido alguno porque no se porque no sería comico. Aparte de que no quiero seguir traduciendo.

Me despido en este dia de la prima vera

(Anonymous) Last night, Helen and I were sitting in the living room, and I said to her, "I never want to live in a vegetative state, dependent on some machine and fluids from a bottle. If that ever happens, just pull the plug." She got up, unplugged the TV, and threw out my beer.
(Anonymous) She's such a bitch.

(Kuiper) Well, it rained today, but as a whole it's been warmer than it was last week.
(kikuichimonji) Why does it seem like every time you join this channel, you end up talking about the weather?
(kikuichimonji) Is your life so unimaginably dull that you can't think of any events in your life to describe that might be more interesting than the weather?
(kikuichimonji) Let's think of something for you to talk about other than the weather.
(kikuichimonji) I mean, we barely even know anything about you, other than where you live.
(kikuichimonji) Let's start there. What do you do for a living?
(Kuiper) I'm a meteorologist.

cinco años, siempre cinco años!!!

y lo peor es que tiene la posta =(

begin to replace flash memory in three to five years

Five years! It's always Five Years!

By 2012 I expect to have, this super memory technology, solar cells with efficiency above 70% for pennies per watt, flying cars, paper thin televisions the size of my wall, fuel cell powered hybrid cars, batteries replaced by power cells that store more power, cost less, are infinitely rechargeable, and charge/discharge like capacitors -- plus several other things from the last few months of Slashdot.

Also the Mayan calendar will have expired, and the entire West Coast in to the Sierra Nevada mountains will be flooded, so I don't know how useful this all will be to me.
