World of Cryingcraft

This one gave me a good chuckle: "World of Cryingcraft" is a deadpan voice reading of the various self-contradicting complaints you always hear about different classes. I could swear I've read a lot of these exact words before on the forums many, many times, so it's quite refreshing to hear them absuldly read aloud in what sounds to me like a cheery computer voice. I especially like how the voice uses all the silly forum language as if it were perfectly natural, such as when he says, "Sometimes I dodge them and then they overpower my face off for literally 2000 damage." and "Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. You know what else is stupid?" (as if we'd really like to know).Be warned that there's lots of cheerful-but-nasty swearing in this (so it's not so safe for work or kids), as well as a surprise ending once the topic turns to shamans. If you really hate swearing (or hold very strong opinions about class complaints) you may not find this very funny, but if you think all the class crying is absurd, you'll probably enjoy it.

Deadpan voice reading? It's a bot!
Is there someplace where it's all written down so I can just read it myself?
Also, YTMND sucks.

I'ts not PEBKAC. My friends in the computer repair industry refer to it as a PICNIC. Problem In Chair, Not In Computer.

@5 your friends are using the less popular version, PEBKAC is the proper version, and PICNIC appears to be a lesser used version.
According to the ever popular urban diction:
PEBKAC

PICNIC

I personally like referring to it as an ID-ten-T problem. PEBKAC is also used a bit. Haven't heard the PICNIC one, but plan to use it as well in the future.

does anyone know what voice synth software produced that? It's one of the best I've ever heard.

That voice sounded awesome, better than microsoft sam.
And it sounded natural too.

The voice sounded like it came from AT&T's text to speach here http://www.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php
Lots of different voices all life-like. Great for prank calls.

So very very true.

Hah, the bit about rogues rolling on everything... they must've gotten tired to doing it to hunters on Thott and switched classes.
If you tend to read all the whining on the forums, you'll notice that no matter what class these posters play, every other class is overpowered.
