It's weird... IRL, I get mellow when drunk. But online I tend to enjoy picking fights, being insulting, etc... But that's only in chats, now that I think about it.
...no sir, in mmorpgs, I get overly brave when drunk. As in, it's tanking time. ...no matter what class/breed I am.
Best example of this has to be from my time in DAOC... I was playing my friar(a healing class, mostly) in a group, and was letting everyone know just how much I'd been drinking. Note: Groups do not want to know if their healer and/or tanks have been drinking. In the middle of a particularly hard fight, I suddenly had the illusion that I was a damage output god...and charged the line. That didn't go over too well. See, mister big bad monster remembered the tiny little friar who'd been healing everyone, and proceeded to smash me into the ground. We actually managed to get out of the fight with no casualties, but it was close...and the team insisted on finding ANOTHER healer before continuing. Luckily, the idea of a drunken friar appealed to them, so they didn't boot me out...
I'm sure this wouldn't work with an AO doctor, though... Who wants a drunk doctor?
PS: I'll find my
frog.
