Stupid mistells

[Reet]

I get a lot of 'em. Stupid mistells, I mean. Since I have a character named Reet, and names can't have spaces in them, I get a lot of (usually offline) tells from newbies meant for 'Reet of Paradise', 'Reet Warbler' and so forth. (I assume newbies, 'cuz, well, they're trying to send tells to mobs.)

Usually it's just along the lines of 'STFU!' since Reets talk a lot of smack. However, today I got this:

Negotz: of Paradise Hi may i get ESS pls

That's it, pasted straight from AORC. Kinda sad that this person knows what buff he needs, but not 1) that player names can't have spaces, 2) that generic Reets generally aren't players, 3) that most people flying around in parrot form aren't Enforcers anyway, 4) how to spell please.

N00b.

...and helpbot says he's L132/AI12. You would think he'd know these things by now.

hahahahaha, that one is a candidate for the short bus!!

[Reet]

I sent him a tell informing him of what he clearly needed to know, and asked him if he'd just bought that account on eBay. There was no reply.

>< I adore your names. Particularly Cthuleet and Omeleet.

Heard while walking through Jobe Harbour:

xxxxx: Can you give me 17 creds?
xxxxx: Need them for a new nano...


17 creds. Come ON. (Of course, I gave them to him. )

I'm glad Funcom never thought to populate Rubi-Ka with Boinky's of Paradise else I'd be getting those stupid mts

I'm guessing that this person was using: /tell %t Hi may i get ESS pls and accidently had the Reet Of Paradise selected instead of the enforcer he was trying to talk to. Personally, I know I have done tons of misstell's that way. It's a lot easier to type out %t then something like "Dobbbbbbbbbb" (who is a real player btw, lvl220 MP).

I've done that before actually. Newb days, I sold all my trash, and spyed a peice of equipment I wanted and, oop!! I was a couple creds off. "Hey, uh, *cough* can anyone spare something like 20 credits?"

I didn't want to leave and let the thing (mostly its QL) disapear from reach. ^_^; I usually got the help I was looking for, but I felt dumb as a stump in the process.
