Transcript:
Panel 1: Lisa sits at her desk, arms crossed. A series of No no no no no’s behind her. Chloe is in the foreground, holding a sign that reads: “”Stage 1: Denial”"
Panel 2: Lisa is now yelling at the computer, enraged. Chloe’s sign now reads “”Stage 2: Anger.”"
Lisa: I don’t need you low life dweebs anyway! You’re nothing but a bunch of noobs who can’t recognize wisdom and experience if it punched you in the eyeballs!
Panel 3: Lisa is now crying. *Sob* Chloe’s sign reads “”Stage 3: Grief.”"
Panel 4: Lisa is sitting back in her chair, staring up. Bink appears on the desk. Chloe’s sign reads “”Stage 4: Acceptance.”"
Bink: Psst! This is where you’re supposed to accept that your guild kicked you!
Lisa: Blargh.

ouch… i guess the way she acted last strip it was bound to happen…..
yer…better watch what you say Kaz
agreed she was a smug jerk
You see, this is what happens when you get snobby.
Now have you learned your lessen so I can have those l337 rogue dps tips? ;P
Boo!
Actually this makes me think of the four stages of rampancy of an AI : Melancholia, Anger, Jealousy and Metastability.
halo reference nice bungie really did perfect that process and it does seem the same here
Poor Lisa. I’d feel bad for her but I’m too busy wishing I could just pick up Chloe for a huge hug.
Wish I could say I knew how being /gkicked felt, but if I find that I don’t mesh well with a guild, I leave on my own.
Of course, there was that one coup de tat gone horribly wrong… That was a bad night.
I’d be inclined to show some sympathy for Lisa, but considering how she acted in the last comic, I feel laughing at her conceited -ss far more appropriate.
Blargh, that’s my line
Isn’t there supposed to be a “bargaining” stage in there somewhere? (Please…I was kidding about charging for strategy info…and I’ll quit gloating about the DPS meter..and, and…pretty please, I’ll be a better guildie if you guys just take me BAAAAACK.)
In the Kübler-Ross model, bargaining comes before grief/depression, but this web comic has a limited budget, and ran out of panels…
Can I jump right to stage 5
WTB way to upvote comments
breakup cyber with the GM? lol
Could your best thread of 2010!
Side note: I love Chloe and Bink as much as anyone, but we’ve lots of them lately. I’d like to catch up more with Lisa and her boyfriend.
And I really miss Jenny and Bill!
Agree, there usually is a bargining stage where you jump up the chain of command and beg your guild leader to take your back, who will inevitably get a splitting migrane from listening to both sides abusing him/her.
I am however totally on board with your mind shutting down and you are reduced to talking like the Aliens from Red vs Blue. Blarg is a state of mind, embarace your inner blarg.
P.S. Guild breakups are probably the most emotialally damaging thing that could happen to a person in game. We feel your pain!
You’re right, there is a bargaining stage! I didn’t know about it until I researched (and by researched I mean quickly googled and skimmed a page or two) the stages of loss. There are 5!
I left that one out for simplicity sake, but I like the idea of Lisa bargaining with the guild.
And I wanted my own stage 5.
There’s been a lot of calls for Jenny and the other characters recently, and all I can say is, don’t worry! I have the next two weeks of comics done after this week. I don’t want to spoil anything, but I *think* you’ll be pleased.
> There’s been a lot of calls for Jenny and the other characters recently
… they’re being asked for by characters in other strips? (“Yeah, did a stint in Hell Has Found Me, and was asked to do a spot on XKCD, but had to turn that down.”)
Stage 5: Revenge? Chloe and Bink would excel at that.
im up for seeing a revenge stage
Readership is anxiously waiting to see if Jenny has leveled up in Star Trek Online from TOS Red Shirt to VOY Janeway Command Rank.
Or did she embrace her inner rage and now wears the open cut bare all of a proper Klingon female warrior!
nobody wants to accept stuff.
Glad to know I’m not the only one who “Blarghs” as a step ahaha.
poor poor lisa.
mmmmm….cupcakes….
Blarg….HONK!
Nice RVB quote here…

it the frist thing who pup in to my mind
Hmm, I think it’s safe to say that I won’t be in any position to be gloating about my dps. Ret paladins aren’t known for that… the developers won’t let that happen to avoid a storm of QQ.
Silly crab.
Honestly, if they were going to kick her over something as silly as that, then they weren’t a guild worth playing with in the first place. :3
