When you walk down a hallway, stop and look at someone and then quickly walk past them.

Double points if you are wearing a hoodie and put the hood up when you see them coming your way.

Clans can give stat bonuses and penalties, too. The Byn drop in wisdom is particularly notorious.

Only noobs quote themselves.

When an elf character joins the party in a book you've been reading and for the rest of the book you wonder why he hasn't fucked over the group or stole anything yet.  At the books end when the elf is still just one of the innocent heroes without even a dirty little secret you feel like the author had no clue what the fuck she was doing.
A staff member sends you:
"Normally we don't see a <redacted> walk into a room full of <redacted> and start indiscriminately killing."

You send to staff:
"Welcome to Armageddon."

Heh, I love to hate the elves in Arm. Also the ones in Dwarf Fortress. Why are all the other elves out there so lame? :P

When you are burning so much meat in arm, trying to cook that you forget to check on your RL supper, and burn it as well. I blame it on method acting.

...you play Arm from Baghdad, Iraq.

...you do night missions in the twisty, confusing, close roads of the Muhallas (neighborhoods) and picture yourself as a naughty bynner going into the rinth.

You win Armageddon, congratulations!  Type 'credits', then store your character and make a new one

I've done this at least once.
Now you're looking for the secret. But you won't find it because of course, you're not really looking. You don't really want to work it out. You want to be fooled.

I did that once... in a way. I noticed I didn't have a skill my subguild was supposed to have in the dream. Woke up, and emailed the staff about it and had it added a few hours later. Crazy.
