World of Warcraft: "Chew Your Way Out"
Posted: Wednesday March 31st, 2004

In World of Warcraft you sit IN chairs, not ON them. That means you actually sit down. You know... use a chair like it's supposed to be used?
I'm not sure how many MMORPGs have left this SIMPLE idea out of their designs. **shakes his head** I don't even want to think about it.
Well, for as cool as it is, most humans have this small problem of getting stuck in the chair. They sit down, and can't get back up. I'd tried everything. Then I heard that some emotes (the ones that actually had some kind of animation) would release you from the grip of comfortable seated repose. So, I did tests. I tried all manner of emotes. I tried multiple emotes in a series of patterns, trying to find a combo that worked every time.
And then, at long last, I came to /chew.
Now, at the time I didn't even know this was a funtioning emote. I was just trying anything and everyting. And, much to my suprise... not only did it have an enimation, but it worked; /chew stood me up out of the chair. I could move freely again.
Now, I'm not sure how many folks playing WoW beta know this trick, but hopefully the comic will spread the word and everyone will be /chew-ing their way out of their chairs.
