Ah, to be young again. Arawn of L2Lock pointed out this poor kid on the forums, who got caught by his parents checking out the "you know what" of the Warlock Succubus pet, "and then it made this sound like uhh uhh uuhhhhh whiip whippp" ("I think warlocks will know what I mean"), and now the poor guy's banned from playing WoW.

Oh, the post itself is so funny, I don't even know what to add. I haven't heard of it happening in a long time, but way back when the game first came out I remember hearing about kids who rolled female Night Elves just to watch them dance, and I think all of us who played Tomb Raider know exactly what this kid is up to. Yes, I mean you-- Lara Croft didn't have to stand facing the corner for five minutes just so the camera could zoom in that one time. And even Blizzard knows what's going on here.

Still, this seems like a good kid (if nothing else, the experience has gotten him interested in correct pronunciation). You might try telling your parents you're rerolling something like an Orc, buddy-- the uglier the better. Otherwise, wait a few years, and all will become clear. The entire post preserved after the jump.


Here's the original post, by Syphonis of Daggerspine, recorded for posterity:

hey all

i just started Wow like 2 weeks ago and i got to 20 and did this long quest to get a succubus pet. i think it really sucks :( anyway, i was in the living room and i was checking out the pet and zooming in to you know what :) and then it made this sound like

uhh uhh uuhhhhh
whiip whippp

i think warlocks will know what i mean
so then my parents looked at me and the screen and they were like omg!! what are you doing. i guess they thought it was porn or something. it told them it was a succubus, but i pronounced it like

suck -ubes

and i guess that pissed them off even more and told me i couldnt play WoW.

now im stuck and dont know what to do :(

any tipz?

PS: how do you pronounce succubus
