I've never been to this section, but I recently wrote a poem for school, about WoW. But not what you think about WoW.
Ballad of the Addicted Boy

The boy resided to his computer.
Pleased; for today he bought World of Warcraft.
Now in the cult, he was much happier.
Onto the account he logged, no errors.

"So many races to choose from", he thought.
His eyes glued onto some races: Orc, Tauren, Troll.
Already his mind began to rot.
"Troll!" he declared, "and hunter it shall be."

His adventure began, in the Sul'Jan;
Accepted quests for a couple of "c".
Starving, his mind ran and ran and ran.
His conscience craved some creativity.

Already now he was level seven;
No longer did he hunt some simple boars.
For hours now his brain has pondered "When?"
"When will my thought process come into play?"

By level twenty his brain had voyaged;
No longer did his mind become useful.
Once again, World of Warcraft has destroyed
a boy's small brain, along with his wallet

Carpel tunnel had consumed this boy's wrists.
Well he complained, the power died; but
his mind returned and the boy shook his fists.
Least did he know, he was saved from the cult.

Edit > Almost forgot to mention, poetry isn't my, er, best thing.
 
The flow could use a bit of work, but it's mildly funny.
 
wait, you wrote it for school?

wow that takes guts.. to write a poem about a comp game

but, seriously
its not that bad
 
1. It's in "teh wr0ng secxti0nz"
2. Ehh. Maybe you need more sentence to setence flow.
3. Maybe rhyming would be nice.
4. Some people like to read it when it sounds like a song. xD

Lol, I found it rather funny. If the power went out on most WoW players, they would freak out not quit :p
 
You couldn't think of a more original subject then blaming a game for people's lack of self restraint?
 
Some people laugh, some people hate me now. I love it.

Anyhow... As I said, I'm not that great at poetry, but I made it for this project to be funny. Thought it would give some people a laugh :p
 
Hahaha :)

The content roxx :)

+rep ^^

Side-note: His brain was a goner when he reached lvl 20... holy crap I got 2 70's xD

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

  • The Helper The Helper:
    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/

    I will have to get used to this.
