Just interested in what other adom fans do in terms of work or studies.
I hate to say I am currently a bingo caller. It's unfortunate, but I needed a job and it was available. Looking to make a career in the police in the next few years hopefully.
So what do some of you guys do?
I'm currently unemployed but studying English at a local university.
I'm currently working at the glorious Burgerville (you know the one on 162nd) and going to school for engineering (either mechanical or electrical) Though before I moved a few months ago I had some pretty sweet jobs, my favorite was working as a computer lab monitor at the local community college, but I was working the side lab that no one went to so I was pretty much getting paid to play adom, and go on facebook, and print hella shit off. I was also working as a math tutor and sometimes I would double the jobs up and tutor while I was in the comp lab, that way I'de get for for two jobs at once eh eh eh... but now I'm just working at shitty burgerville
Dream job! :DQuote:

Managing projects (large machines) for a medium size company.
It does not sound sexy, but provides an everyday challenge preventing me from turning into an adom playing turnip.
Who DOESN'T wanna be an ADOM playing turnip?! :DQuote:

you are either a good bot or a bad sig chooser
Bot... give it a few more months of natural selection and they'll learn to play ADOM.
It's so odd :/ The reply here is relevant without repeating text. The Q/A is relevant. The username does't look like a string of random characters or a pasted together fake name with numbers. Maybe he has a personal connection to the software linked in his sig...?
The reply is relevant, but also fairly generic, and with no reference to anything posted by anyone in the thread before. I wouldn't put it past a spambot to check for key terms ("work", "do for a living") in general discussion forums to post a couple of pre-defined responses.
I'd definitely accept "dark elf anything" as a proper reply for someone who then goes on to make an ADOM related post. But this guy hasn't made an ADOM related post and has an ad in his signature, however subdued. I think there was a human involved in the registration process, but the ad is what the account is about.
A quick search reveals the same link posted on other forums, under similarly generic replies.Quote:

These days it's less bots and more real people spamming links, so posts often have some actual relevance to the topic, instead of quote random post -> "thanks for the info" or a random block of text.
This guy either did a little reading about the game, or just knew it was a RPG and got lucky with what he came up.Quote:
