Subject: Topic of the Week wants to know about rage logging? (ooops)


There is no doubt that at times, this game can be very frustrating. Trying to farm a certain item you need for your template, sitting there for hours, and it just doesn't want to drop. Finding a group to run with, and getting killed trying to meet up with them. Being in the midst of an epic battle and going link dead. At times, this game and players can get the best of you.

One of the funniest phenomenon of gaming is the rage logging. Getting so frustrated or angry in game that you just log off, and in some instances quit the game. We've all experienced it, heard it, seen it…caused it. It's been recorded and played back in vent and on you tube. Everyone has seen the epic rage logs such as "who stole my cloudsong". I will admit, I've had my fair share of incidents that have brought me to log early, or go off by myself for a day or 2 to just solo on an unknown, unguilded toon. Not finding a group within my alliance is the most frustrating for me. However, I don't think I've ever had an epic meltdown in game, and I've never quit playing altogether.

How about you? Has anything brought you to the point of rage logging or quitting game? Have you witnessed a rage log so epic you'll never forget it? Topic of the Week and inquiring gamers want to know!

Do you have any good topic ideas? If you have one you'd like to see posted, please drop me a line!

I don't think I've ever rage quit on Gaheris. There have been several times where I decide to take a break after having troubles with an encounter that I can normally do without problems.

generally i only play one game so i never rage quit/log because i dont have another game. sometimes ill get up and take a break.

swg during the nge change over is about it really. i probably rage logged at how crappy they made the game 2 or 3 times then quit for 2 or 3 years.
