bavarianbrew Posted November 26, 2010 Report Share Posted November 26, 2010 This needs to be pushed to the top. It seems that for ages OOC has been the modus operandi in Clan Chat ever since I can remember. And it continues to this day, Elders inclusive. I heard such things the other day including, "Dude does Such-and-Such have their Uber?" "Nah bro." "Try searching using [common name]." "Okay, I'll see if it's in." "Well?" "Nada." "Bummer." "Yeah." "Cool thanks." I suspect many are confusing their IM with IG conversation. I also agree that in everyday interactions In Game, modern day slang is increasing and hrown around so liberally I'm unsure how to respond, especially when the player has probably stayed up way past their bedtime if you know what I mean. And you old bastards should know better. Anyways, what's to be done, and what are the rules in regards to modern slang IG? Or even Humans playing Giants acting like Elves? Sometimes IG, when I'm in treeform I hear some rustling then a scream of FCUK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! at the top of their lungs in the middle of the forest. Yes, that's the sound trees make when they fall in the forest when nobody is around. It sounds similar to English doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmajunkie Posted November 27, 2010 Report Share Posted November 27, 2010 lol at this. To tell someone a FG can never be this, or a storm giant can never be that is the ridiculously detrimental to RP. Stormies should NEVER speak princely? What if my storming was raised by elven nobles? True RP has been lost for a long time because the walls of the FL-box have grown increasingly cemented and now most of you refuse to look outside them. "Oh but the race helpfile says this this and that!!" ...so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmajunkie Posted November 28, 2010 Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 Don't start with that crap. A storm giant having low INT does not mean he can't learn traditions, rhetoric, and new language altogether. Especially if taught by highly intelligent creatures.

Celerity Posted November 28, 2010 Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 The words someone uses, dialect, accent and everything else concerning language is not related to intelligence in the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmajunkie Posted November 28, 2010 Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 Splitting hairs? Point remains, nothing is stopping anyone from playing creative out-of-the-box characters but themselves. Storm giant could feasibly talk like a noble. Elf could be evil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if taught by highly intelligent creatures.[/quote'] He would A) Not learn it well. Not remember all the intricate details. C) Screw it up more than once. I could go on and on but the giant is inferior to the elf mentally. He will never be the elfs equal. If you want to go right ahead and "RP" it the way you want, go ahead. But ignoring the stats is the same as ignoring the "Lawful" on the ethos and ignoring the "Good" under alignment. Honestly, I've seen so much of the "I'm an intelligent" or "I'm different" or...I'm just flat out tired of all the "unique" characters running around. I have no respect for a giant that is WAY above where his intelligence or wisdom put him. EDIT: If you ask me, if you don't want to play a f***ing storm giant, restring it.

mmajunkie Posted November 28, 2010 Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 So sad. I never said he would be equal to an elf. I said it is feasible that Elves could teach a storm giant how to speak in a classy way. He can learn and master powerful prayers but can't speak like a noble? lol No one had issues with Heiku having the strength of a stone giant. If people spent as much time playing/thinking up creative and original ideas as they do trying to control or influence how other people play, you might see consistent pbase growth instead.

Atebos Posted November 28, 2010 Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 Race histories were put in place with the sole idea that they would be the basic outline of what that race's history was. They are in no way shape or form meant to constrain the gameplay or player roleplay of such a character. As for ethos and alignment. These ARE constraining facts of characters. You are given a choice at character creation upon: alignment, ethos, and religion. You ARE expected to follow these choices as they are roleplay roles you have CHOSEN to follow. If you want to play a personal race(i.e. a good dark knight) then all the more power to you. But you are expected to apply for it so that the immortals can approve of it and properly outcast you without punishing you for breaking ethos, alignment, and class role.

The-Nameless Posted November 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 The difference MMA with heiku and a stone giant. Is Heiku thought he had stone giant STR. He acted like he did, and pushed physical fitness. But he was not as strong as a stone giant, you acted like he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmajunkie Posted November 28, 2010 Report Share Posted November 28, 2010 /facepalm Nothing surprises me here anymore. If I play again next summer I'm gonna play a storm giant who talks like Rex Harrison and you're all just gonna have to deal with it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
