I've noticed a trend . . .

When you combine homosexuality being as common as heterosexuality, the high mortality of infants, and murder/execution/assassination being so common place... how the fuck does the world stay populated?

That seems pretty straightforward to me; Lots of people are doing both.

Haven't you noticed that every pregnant person has triplets? Duh.

Goat porn is not prohibited in the Highlord's city.

I wonder - does that mean Zalanthans have litters of children? Is this why there's so many dirty goddamn elves?

Even though the whole multiple births thing is something that is PC pushed, I've always figured it made sense since the issues I mentioned above would lead to at least a slow dwindling of population in the cities.

Is it "as common"? I thought it just didn't have any prejudice against it.

I do think that yes, Zalanthans having litters makes sense.

You've just described pre-black plague over populated medieval Europe.

Humans like to fuck. A lot.
"When I was a fighting man, the kettle-drums they beat;
The people scattered gold-dust before my horse's feet;
But now I am a great king, the people hound my track
With poison in my wine-cup, and daggers at my back."

That's how I generally interpret the docs as well, but the GDB seems to lean more toward the statement of mine that you quoted.

Yeah, stupidity should definitely have been added to the list. ;)

I don't think the virtual population is nearly as reckless and stupid as the PC population :)

I think there are quite a few things that need to be considered when criticizing someone for their spelling, proper grammar, and or use of the emoting system correctly.

1. English is quite possibly not their first language.
2. They could be new to our wonderful world and not totally comfortable with using the emoting system (it can be pretty daunting).
3. They could be a younger player and not have a great mastery of the the language either. Texting is ruining RP MUDs! (lolz, k thx bye, gtg, etc.)

On the last note. I think it is always best to follow the rule of - treat others like you want to be treated. When you were first starting out on Armageddon, would you like it someone said, OOC: "Hey man. Learn how to spell if you want to play this game."

If I see someone abruptly breaking a scene to correct a persons RP via OOC and it's in an abrasive tone - I'll report you. From reading this thread it seems like quite a few folks have forgotten what it was like to first start this mud and are really refusing to give anyone the benefit of the doubt.

The poor dorf population is already so low. Take care of your dorfs, people, they are precious.  :P
