[WoW] Purposely getting somebody banned. - Page 2

Voyce · 05-20-2009, 08:15 PM

A Have your father will him out of the family business.

B. Take away all of his shit.

He demands it back, tell him to shut his mouth.

He get's violent, shoot him in the head.

It will send a strong message to his replacement child.

Call it tough love, murder, or in this case a steep learning curve. He would appreciate the irony if he could (you know since WoW has a comparatively easy learning curve).

Blackulaa · 05-20-2009, 08:15 PM

Train your ass off. Rub crap on your face and challenge him to a game of madness.

Seriously, he sounds like a bully. And everyone knows bullies don't learn until you stand up to them, and call their bluff. Not just you. The entire family has to intervene on that ass.

If he's truly looney seek professional help and call the cops on him. Tough love.

If he's just a *badass* keep fighting until he's tired of it. Tough love.

Dr. Black Phil has spoken.

Get your father to draw the line between WoW and inheriting the company (position) or whatever. Make him choose between his WoW addiction, and his future. If your parents won't make a stand, and he won't change, then /shrug.

That or call Opra/Dr. Phil, maybe you can get your family on the television, and put his addiction in the spotlight.

My gut tells me he wont quit unless he wants to, and he wont want to until something sours him on WoW, from inside the game.

Cadrid · 05-20-2009, 08:23 PM

If he's a careless, selfish, lazy slob, handing him a job that guarantees him a comfortable life, no questions asked, is a dumb idea. Either he starts getting more involved in the business and giving up WoW time, or he doesn't get the business.

As a side note, is anyone else picturing a roid-filled Chris Farley from "Tommyboy?"

You probably won't stop hearing some variation of that since its about the only thing that makes sense to everyone reading about this.....BUT

Holy shit, I'm glad someone thought of this! You MUST take it to this level. Your parents will probably let it happen if you sell it hard enough as a way to stage an intervention. And you can show up wearing a FoH t shirt. Or FoHSS if so inclined.

First off, you sir are one shady ass bitch. If you really care that much to get him banned you should at least execute the treachery yourself and delete his toons in front of him. Proceed to take your lickings like a man and get over it.

What a fucking wanker.

You sir are correct, twice.

I have no interest, besides helping out and helping him (my bro) get on "top". As soon as I get a full time job out of the family biz, I am outties.

I know it sucks getting your account banned, but I think hes lazy enough and in the sort of rut that if he did lose access to his account in a "sneaky" way, preferably getting it stolen or make it seem like it got stolen that he would have nothing else to do but what he has to do, his "responsibilities". Even though

Like I seriously think he'll just get discouraged. But I guess thats me being delusional.

And yes I am totally serious. And no he's not the brightest of lads, especially since hes a muscle head/pot head!

As far as my parents go, when I confront em about it they go: "Just pray or some stupid bullshit". (Yes they're evangelical fanatics) -.-

Literally as I write this post, have my last semester paper on word in the background, I went to my parents having dinner with a family friend (that has more sense than they themselves) to ask em about "what are we going to do about my bro" and they just shrug it off. I do this regurlarly mind you.

I wouldn't be writing this if THEY, my parents, didn't give me shit, for what my brother does, or in this case doesn't do. And I also feel kinda guilty because I introduced him to the damn game. The only reason he plays WoW is because any fucking retard can tank Ulduar, amongst other things.

There is a saying that goes "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink."

It seems that his values are very different from yours. If you try to change his values by force you will likely only succeed in eroding whatever respect he has left for you. This will only hurt your chances of affecting his lifestyle.

He needs to understand that his actions have consequences, and that some times in life you must do unpleasant things for your overall long term happiness. If his current lifestyle is unsustainable than some kind of change is inevitable. That means that whether he likes it or not he will have to change eventually because that's how the world works. If you can teach him that a few small changes now will have large benefits for him down the road then he may be able to make the decision to change on his own. Or maybe not. Maybe even with the knowledge of the consequences of his actions he will still choose what you see as the wrong path. Some people learn best from their own mistakes.

I think you should also understand that the real problem isn't so much what he's doing, but rather what he isn't doing. It isn't that he's playing wow, it's that he's shirking his responsibilities. This will come back to bite him in the future. If he can do some things with discipline for part of the day, what he does with the rest of his time is really up to him.

Fammaden · 05-20-2009, 08:46 PM

I'm not saying it doesn't deserve it, but sometimes shit gets rickshawed too fast. This had potential...for entertainment or even good advice. Now there will probably be less posts.

Vim · 05-20-2009, 08:49 PM

Seems like I've offended people that share the same lifestyle as my brother. Whatever. I got the in put I needed. Getting his account stolen is gonna be my last resort and hes got a deadline, end of June.

For those that contributed with constructive post, you know who you are. Thanks.

Tenks · 05-20-2009, 08:53 PM

Do you have his UID/PW combo? If so then just do tard shit and cuss out a GM to get him banned.

So end of June you are alerting Dr. Phil? Sweet!

Guzrog · 05-20-2009, 09:12 PM

Bah. I hit refresh and was going to recc. rickshaw and its already here! 02 post farming and all that.

Saladus · 05-20-2009, 09:30 PM

Why the hell wait til the end of June? Why not NOW? Jesus this kid is 25 and acting like a god damn baby. What does he do for the job? He do anything at all other than sit there and play?

Dude....just stop waiting and take action now. This kid needs a serious intervention or something. Usually I would advise to let him get burned out himself, but that would be if he were like 5-6 years fucking younger. At 25, this kid needs to wake up, and step the hell away from the computer for some time.

Enob · 05-20-2009, 10:19 PM

First let me say that I don't condone getting his account banned. BUT....there is one definitive way to do it 100% so it will never be opened ever again. Sell every piece of gold he has to the largest gold company that's buying on his server, preferably IGE. Account will be permanently banned within 12-24 hours. As a side if you are going to try and hide that you did this you'll also have to hide the money kickback you get from selling the gold to your own bank account. Win-win? Still a pretty shitty thing to do and there is definitely a better way of going about it. I would say try your best as others have said to get your parents on your side. And about the violence, there is nothing at all wrong with getting a few domestic disturbance violations against him possibly leading to a few nights in lockup. He would probably learn pretty quick.
