Title: trolling or storyline
Post by: vatovie on 30-12-2012
So when I got on today I couldn't help but notice that someone had coverd my house with signs that said "go home orc." I don't know if this was a storyline someone is trying to start or if people have just taken trolling my house to the next level. I say taken to the next level because people have been making minor changes to my house just to mess with me for a while and it has just been annoying. Anyway I just want to know if it's a storyline or some one trolling me.  If it's a storyline I'll go with it  but if it's trolling I would like it to stop.

I feel like if they said "Go home orc" or something it'd make sense to deduce that its IC.

Otherwise they are just really terrible at trolling.

might be storyline.

Seems like a bit of Xenophobia to me.

I thought you guys were better than that.

It sounds like a subtle satire at Chromatophobia as a whole and the effect it has on our youth. I suspect the artist is hoping to arise some contemplation on the subjects alike race equality. Are Orcs as good as humans? Are elves? Are they better?

And more directly, one must wonder if these signs were meant to provoke the Orc into proving he is sub-human by triggering some primal rage in his gullet. To prove themselves right- A self-fulfilling prophecy of sorts.

At least it seems that way to me. To each his own.

That is a very effective non-layman's way of saying they're racist against orcs. *thumbs up*

I'm a bit new to the server, and thus completely unknown to how lax or rigid the moderators are, but doesn't this fall under the line of harassment? If it was for the sake of a storyline, I suppose its fine, but shouldn't the mastermind behind the tale have consulted with the owner of the house before making these changes?

I'd personally may have found it rather irritating to find my hard-made house being tampered as such.

Not really. Adding a sign to the house doesn't do much.

Refer to the original post again please. Is "house covered in signs" and "alterations" that minor of a deal? If it was I doubt vatovie would have bothered the rest of us with the post.

No offense meant!

His house is... a horse drawn carriage. and yeah. it is that minor of a deal.
At least you don't have to flick a switch in your own home and have 5 Placed Explosives completely demolish your house.

I would say good times, but they weren't good times, really. Mildly amusing times.

A... horse-drawn carriage, huh? Definetly sounds interesting.

I just read my previous post. Makes me sound like a troublemaker. Open mouth, insert foot?

That nostalgic tone doth sound ominous. Does it mean I've missed all the fun and thats why the server is almost always empty? Have I joined too late so as to really enjoy the server?
