    I am something of a webcomics aficionado. At current count, I follow ... (carry the one) ... Too Many comics. As such, I'm always reading a variety of topics and humor, and occasionally something that approaches Massively-related content will appear. Such is the case with a recent 'Something Positive', which concerns itself with 'Pirates of the Caribbean Online'.The initiating event of the strip actually begins the episode before the linked comic, but it's not necessary to read for the effect. I'm curious if there really is a swearing-related, bannable offense, as the comic suggests. Barring that, I wonder if anyone's run into the naming issue described here. I'm looking forward to the rest of this series. Check it out, but be forewarned: NSFW language!

  • Something a Wii bit positive

    Webcomic artist R.K. Milholland is no stranger to gaming. While gaming isn't always a regular focus of his popular (mostly) daily strip Something Positive, the hobby does rear its head from time to time. It's more common to see characters discussing tabletop RPGs than console games, but sometimes, a controller does pop up here and there -- and that extends to Milholland's other projects, as well. One of those projects is Life with Rippy, which is a sub-strip that draws directly from Milholland's own experiences ... and injects a talking, snarking razor (the "Rippy" of the title) as a spotlight on the humorous, and often dour aspects of life. And as we've learned in the latest Rippy-based side strip, even suicide mascots like to get their Wii on.
