The World of Warcraft Phenomenon of Leeroy Jenkins.

The ‘Leeroy Jenkins’ incident was just a joke, it wasn’t ‘real.’ ‘Leeroy’ wasn’t actually away from the keyboard all that time. Basically, Pals 4 Life (the guild from the above clip) set up just to make a funny video. =)

WOW players are so strange. They get so addicted that many are grossly overweight, single or divorced. Their membership rolls are mostly comprised of old Ever quest players. They not only have to pay 50 dollars for the game, plus 40 dollars for each and every expansion pack, they have to pay 10 dollars a month to play. Many loose jobs due to playing all night and being hours late to work day after day.

All this from a company named Blizzard Software that hurried it through production due to Guild Wars being released by Arena.net. Guild wars to this day has 30 times the graphics, no monthly fees, with limits to help avoid game addiction.

In Guild Wars there is a quest where you have to aid Kilroy Stoneskin (an NPC). When we enter the Sorrow’s Furnace he shouts: “Kiiiiillroooooy Stooooonekiiiiin!!”, while rushing directly into a group of mobs!
Obviously a reference to Leeroy Jenkins.

“Time’s up, let’s do this”

I never heard anything about thumbs… I even have the shirt (they were selling them at DEFCON 14)

WoW is so boring, and I really tried to like it, but all of my friends are or were addicted to it. Most of them had to stop themselves because it was interfering with their jobs and schoolwork. I still have one friend that hasn’t stopped playing, of course I haven’t seen him in almost a year because he won’t go out anymore. He literally plays all day and night. The last time I saw him he was incredibly thin and pale from not leaving his room, not even for food. Last year he said he had logged almost 100 days of game play. I know there are casual WoW gamers out there (I guess I was one of them when I played) but I’ve seen more addicted players than casual ones. There are even support groups for people who have lost their relationships/families due to WoW. It’s kinda crazy.

I always hear LEEROY NEGINS at the begening.

Is it just me?

omg did leeroy just run in there

HAHAHAHAHHAHA LOLZ LOTION MUCH XD ZITS OMFG AAHAHHAHAH XD AWMYGAWD XD SOMPL!!! (that should be: shitting on my pants laughing)

serious. get a life, you guys. i used to be a sex-less nerd like you but when i quit Ultima Online for my job, I got my life back and today i’m married, have a kid and we have our own apt. =) you can do it too i know u can =D

Oh, and quit wow you fucks, its fucking lame now, the only good thing about it was End-Game content and they’ve ruined that with the expansions.

Instead of going dungeon to dungeon all the nubs could skip mc, bwl, aq, and naxx

First off, this was a stagged video and Leroy Jenkins spell like this got famous from the game Everquest 2 years before World of Warcraft came out. I was there and saw it all happen and it was a hell of alot funneir with 65-70 people on a raid.
It was the dungeon with all the dragons. (been awhile can’t remember it’s name) The raid leader was giving out instruckins for something like 20 minutes when this guy “Leroy Jenkins” got in a hurry and just rushed into this chamber full of dragons. After that it was history and funny as hell. Everyone was yell “Leroy you idoit!’ After we all wiped he yelled back “AT LEAST I’M NOT CHICKEN!”

This is how it started. Not in World of Warcraft. Its alot funneir when theres 65-70 people and not just 10.
