Enjoy the latest three pics.

Ayreon · 07-19-05, 09:44 AM

Hahahaha

Very nice.

Diamondedge · 07-19-05, 09:45 AM

There WILL be more.

Vigdis · 07-19-05, 11:43 AM

Suliss definitely wears gloves, sleeves and trousers... I've fixed it since a week now. Anyway, your picture is so bad we can't see anything. But I understand that you call me liar. You cross a line. Geez.

FlameStrike · 07-19-05, 11:55 AM

All well and good with drow-hate, but i surely hope this doesn't turn out to cause griefing among players...

Leanthar · 07-19-05, 11:56 AM

*nods* agreed.� I am watching this thread and these actions.� Keep it in RP and within reason and mutual understanding between both parties�and things are fine.� It is a fine line, so be careful.

Xhanum · 07-19-05, 12:04 PM

Yikes!

I've been RPing some Drow mistrust, but I gotta tell ya, the stuff I saw in those screen caps bothers me. My anti-drow RP stops right now. There is no way I want to be lumped in with that kind of stuff. Just one guy's opinion, but thats over the top in my mind.

regnus · 07-19-05, 01:17 PM

Here's the opinion of a guy who plays a drow. I enjoy the ridicule, harrassment, resentment, fear, and even hate directed at Owen. That being said, I think this is a bit extreme. Just my opinion.

Ayreon · 07-19-05, 01:18 PM

My main character is a drow...I don't mind. It's partly why I chose a drow.

KageKeeper · 07-19-05, 01:36 PM

Personally the RP is fine.

I think screenshots is in poor taste.

miltonyorkcastle · 07-19-05, 02:24 PM

Honestly, three pics? We get the point.

the dwarf hates the drow. but hey, I ain't got a problem with a dwarf spitting on a drow, nor do I think it's an extreme... heck, if I was playing a drow and the worst I had to deal with was a spitting dwarf, I'd be set.

People that take offense, please recall that it's the *character* spitting on another *character* not someone personally attacking *you* as a player... Should be obvious, but I often watch where someone let's this stuff go to their head.

gluck · 07-19-05, 03:58 PM

I wouldn't be so sure about that Cole. I've had problems with this particular player in other instances too regarding his anger and language and not involving drow.

Diamondedge · 07-19-05, 06:41 PM

Mmm, so you're the guy that got all up in a tussle when I messed up the scheduling, huh? *grins*

Perhaps Malandaar'd like a bit of spittle flying his way... :P Durned Medges.

P.S.... How dare you judge my character's actions and my own mentality towards them with past evidence of anger towards yourself, friend. Bad taste, if I say so myself.

Etinfall · 07-19-05, 07:40 PM

Cole (etinfall) hates drow. But learned pretty quick that just cause they are drow they cant fight back. I'd like to see you spit on a drow walking by that has no issue from taking your life.

Hey Pan, Storm... bring em back to town just once...let him spit on you..

I see this as someone enjoying the hatred their char has toward drow. Is that healthy? rp it but to oenjoy it so much is a little spooky.

Vyris · 07-19-05, 07:57 PM

Why would you take screen-shots of that?

Be carefull with that course of RP, it wouldn't take much of a nudge to push that into griefing.
And as others have said, you seem a bit 'happy' about spitting on Drow OOC too.

Vyris

Zhofe · 07-19-05, 08:09 PM

The sad thing is ... that it seems that the majority of people against the hatred of Drow are not the recipients of such actions ...

Though, I suppose it is unhealthy to enjoy such hatred OOC ...

Then again ... maybe he is trying to make hatred of Drow more common, which we were all clammoring for just a bit ago ...

But then we were clamoring for peace and happiness and acceptance and probably some hemp too ...

But then we got back to hating

Now we are hating the haters?

Or is the hater taking his hate too far and we don't hate him just want him to tone down?

I'm confused ... It is 2:00AM and we have all changed our minds too many times. I'm going to bed before I start thinking too much.

Guardian 452 · 07-19-05, 08:57 PM

I think you need to start rolling a Dex or something to see if your aim is good......

and dont they get a chance to dodge?

Im sure I saw a Loogie Dodge feat some place.

BTW... if you see Pan, Storm or Ed on as a DM.... dont even bother running... just bend over grab your ankles and kiss you butt goodbye... They have some real spiffy drow hehe.

Hey! you say they are targeting you! your right they are! look how public you are of your hatred to Drow..... Reap what you sew my friend....

Acacea · 07-19-05, 09:13 PM

Second G-452's post!

Also about the screenshots, with all the "why doesn't anyone hate drow??" comments being made, I think it is not surprising that someone would take a screenie to say "This guy does! Woohoo!"

(Acacea can't stand the guy, though. Most people can't, but he adds a certain flavor. Bad taste? Something.)

RouterBlade · 07-19-05, 09:47 PM

Turor is like Bruenor, just lower lvl hehe
but then again, Bruenor has 3 drow friends..or 4....meh, around there.
Anyways I believe characters like Turor,Bruenor, Lia and some others stir up good Rp because everyone walking down the same road holding hands singing christmas carrols is just no fun. Though the OOC boasting of IC actions may be taking things too far

Frendh · 07-20-05, 12:47 AM

I don't see a problem with Turor as long as he
doesn't walk up to a drow and do that every time
he sees one.

If you pass a drow along the road or a drow comes
up to you or your group, then it's all good to
pour out some nice spiffy hate.

The language is regulated here since it's a family
server, so I don't see a problem as long as they
follow that rule.

Vigdis · 07-20-05, 02:30 AM

I think my post was misunderstood. I'm upset, but it has nothing to do with views about RP and drows (one more thread about it anyway).

What happened : this dwarven photographer ran after Suliss and *spits on the drow*. I send him a tell, asking "how can you see I'm a drow?". He mentioned the dark skin of Suliss' arms. So I answered that Suliss has no bare flesh, it was a cloth, and that he could come and check (we were walking away from each other). Then he replied "ok I take it back". So I thank it was over. And then I saw this screenshot and this OOC comment related to an OOC discussion, sounding like I (player) tell lies or something. Humf. Allright, I take it easy. Go on, have fun

teefal · 07-20-05, 03:25 AM

posting pics is OOC, yes? I agree with those that said this feels weird. What's next? Photos of Drow hangings?

Frendh · 07-20-05, 05:16 AM

If there ever is a drow hanging, I'd like to see a screenshot.
I haven't heard it happen so it would be a rare occation.
Seen them spitted on swords, hacked to pieces with axes,
pincushioned with arrows and blown to bits with spells.
But never hanged.

Zhofe · 07-20-05, 06:53 AM

You know, there was a crucifixion of the residents of Spellguard that a whole lotta screenshots were taken of. I think that that has a whole lot more weight than a drow hanging would, especially considering that those people were innocent and ... get this ... they were crucified by drow ... or atleast while the drow were sacking the city ...

Diamondedge · 07-20-05, 08:01 AM

Taking the pics down... Grumble...

Edit: 'cept for one. I want to remember that I've actually done it.

I just want to say that the whole spitting thing was not what I was referring to in my previous post. I was saying that it looked a little extreme to me to be snapping a pic every time it was done. It looked like you were going out looking for drow to spit on so you could take another picture of it. I understand if a drow walks up to you or near you or whatever but running up to them just to do this is in my opinion, extreme.

But I say leave the pictures up. It happened already. No use in censoring yourself. There is so much talk on how Drow are treated nowadays that it has become silly in my opinion. Everyone asked for more hate and mistrust of drow and that is exactly what happened. If you want to spit on Drow then by all means do it if it is IC. Just dont hunt them down to do it.
