Silkroad Online Forums

First I learnt how to type faster, purely from the mass of hours I spent infront of the computer. I have a better understanding of other religions and cultures, especially Islam, just from chatting to Muslim friends. I know a bit more about the Gaza and Israel conflict, even if it was from a biased source. And finally, I met a lot of good friends that I still talk to on a daily basis, months after I quit.

So, what did you learn from SRO that could be useful in real life?

I learned that "luck" and probability are not to be fuucked with....

Typing speed increased dramatically and grammar is all but dead to me.

I learned that Turks want my money.

I learned that for 10k gold in a game, i can choose between a turkish sister or mather for sex...

I learned to read faster, a lot faster. I'm assuming it's because of all the chatting.

I learned this

I learned that grouping up with others is the best way to commit mass murder.

I'm actually torn because im not a racist person but im really just about coming to the conclusion that I never want to meet one in real life can they really be that different or are they just going to ask me for $10?

english

I learned never to try another MMORPG again, no matter how 'cool' it looks. Not sayin' I didn't have my fun, but 4 years is nutty business.

not to play a good game with a shitty community, shit admins, and shit lag -.-

Good to know you could hit a guy in RL instantly if he scams you.

Dont fight tigers.

Nothing.

10k plýs

turks are stupid.

"things that could be useful in RL..."
Not even a single reply from above is on topic.

Only thing I learned from this game was to not be so forthcoming in trusting the majority. Not from personal experience, but from guildies / friends' certain "happenings" ...lol

dont trust anyone

lol i made this topic a while ago

and try not to get little things get to you

disregard turks, acquire currency

I learned that I can't be be around turks or people who have bad english. My grammar decreased and I am getting in the habit of talking like them.

Ex: Do you want to make +6 bow?

Right way to say it: Do you want to make a +6 bow?

Never hold 26 million$ in cash for a stranger, Or you'll wake up broke, naked, and as a wanted criminal.

That's the human brain for you, very lazy but very creative at being lazy. Although the correct way, I'd say, is "Would you want to upgrade a bow up to six times?"

I find myself talking in very short sentences with shortcut words like "u, pls, plz, mobs," in any chatroom. Otherwise in forums I have all the time I need to write

I learned how to press 1 2 3 4 5 very fast.
