Quote from: "flurry"So it seems reasonable that while the anti-southern or anti-elven sentiments themselves are not frowned upon, displaying them in a crude and artless way is.

Equally, not displaying them at all ought to be looked down on. Lack of subtlety is a social misdemeanour, certainly, but not on the same level as being a stinking elf-lover. :twisted:

QuoteNot quite right:

Smiling pleasantly, the pink-haired merchant asks the skinny half-elf,
"Hi there, I'm Bert. What's your name, and are you looking for a job?"

That depends...what are you offering a job for?
Much easier to get someone to act as "cannon fodder" if they think you are being nice to them because you -are- nice by your open actions.
It doesn't mean that you aren't planning on using them for a scapegoat or just more infantry to throw their lives away for whatever whim you have.

Doesn't matter, unless the job is important enough to you that you're willing to jeopardise your social standing and get a name as one who hangs round with filthy half-breeds just to get it done. If the breed comes looking for a job, fine. No need to go running round subserviently offering one. Being nice to half-breeds and elves is a social faux pas.

I didn't realy bother to read past the first page of this post, so if this has already been discussed, I'm sorry  

Why doesn't the road be expanded to Fire Storm Pub so that it goes straight from the gate  up north to where the pub is at?

All that would requre is a a building or two being A. Broken in half so the road can go by, or B. the area cleared so that people can walk through whatevers between two buildings etc. At least...I think that's why there isn't already a road that does that...

So the truth comes out. The only reason those other taverns are not visited is because we are just too fucking lazy. That's what capitalism does to you!

Hurray for Communism!

It's more of a matter of...the taverns are so far from the city gate, that temporary visitors would get to a tavern only to have to turn right around and head back out again. That's kinda pointless.

I have seen more people frequent the Firestorm lately, so that's good.. But the Tembo's Tooth still remains virtually unoccupied. Which is pretty odd considering that there's Bynners who come up from the south, probably very eager to spice themselves silly.

I've noticed this too. Thanks for the effort, people. Kudos. Many kudos.

This has always bothered me... I think I'll make a thread about it. W00t for new threads!

You do that and I'll do to you what I do to everyone else on my 'hit list.' And that is brainwash you to become a mindless proponent of communism and if that doesn't work I'll just beat you over the head with a rock.

Yeah, it would be a rock because you can't afford nukes anymore commie!

Yet we still have enough nukes left over from the Cold War to make your ass pucker.

You donkeys, you double-faced asses.

Judging from a few intense calculations, it would take exactly 9203 grade-a nuclear missles to make my ass pucker.

We have exactly one more than that.
