'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through Norrath,
Not a creature was stiring, not even a large rat.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Absor soon would be there;
The newbies were nestled all snug in Dawnshroud,
Yet still begging for buffs, entirely too loud;
And my friends in Disease, and I in Nightmare,
Were finding no loots, not here and not there.
When suddenly in guild chat there arose such a clatter,
I ran for the Nexus to see what was the matter.
Away to the portal I ran like a flash,
Shouted out "Train!" and disappeared like an ass.
The moon, with it's masses, was overpopulated,
Into the Bazaar did I zone, my curiousity unsated.
When, what did I run into blocking the path?
A stupid casino enhancing my wrath.
Shouts of "GM event in Qeynos Hills!" rang,
I found my friends quickly to port down to the thang!
When in Qeynos Hills there was quite a sight,
Two hundred people had just begun to fight.
"Stop KSing me a*****e!", "Don't ninja my loots!",
"Back away from my MOB - he's wearing my boots!"
Disappointed and disgusted yet deciding to stay,
My friends and I buffed up and jumped into the fray.
When what to my wondering eyes did appear?
Uber guilds had shown up to clean the place clear.
More rapid than vultures they leaped on their prey,
And pet commands spammed us with many a /say:
"Now ZEKER!, now LARTIK!, now GONER!, and GANN!
On ZIBANTIK!, on b***r!, on KATEK!, and LANN!
To the biggest MOB! To the boss of the zone!
Now attack him, pets, we must be the one!"
Like newbies we were shoved out of the incoming storm,
As the Uber Guilds destroyed the MOBs in the zone.
So up to the boss MOB they did quickly proceed,
Their level 65 warriors taking the lead.
And then in a shout match ringing all through the land,
Two uber guilds had clashed and it got out of hand.
Threats of blowing the spawn or stealing the loots,
Till the zone was then crashed by some ccc~ fool!
When we were able to login, and get back to the scene,
The GM appeared and tried to set things all clean.
He was short and quite bald, because he was gnome,
Wondering to himself why he hadn't stayed home.
After a hundred requests for free rezzes and loots,
The GM left after giving offenders the boot.
The guilds proceeded to head to their boards,
Where they posted injustices for all of the hordes.
Claims of exploiting and hacks, and KSing and cheats,
It's a wonder that anyone wants to be l33t.
And behind all the scenes, Absor laughed out loud:
"Merry Christmas to all - you are in our world now!"
