Nah, I'm usually too busy looking at "other" things than the sign over a lady's restroom, though I do remember something about a dress!

But hey, what if a girl-stick figure can't AFFORD a dress, eh? EH?! Then she's like the ones we have in GW! (yeah, I'm grasping at straws here. x3)

maybe anet should do what most mmorpg's and other online games do and that is just ignore that there is a aprils fool day or other days that happends

Actually, I have lightened up...I am just defending my position. Like they say, fight fire with fire....

I am sure anet has plenty of chapstick for you, too.

End of story. And to those that just don't get it, there's extra dogfood in the closet.

The really intelligent people don't go round making assumptions about people they don't know and sweeping generalisations. As someone who likes to think of themselves as intelligent, the irony is not lost on me

I like the stickman joke and all that says about me is I have a sense of humour. I'm not claiming it's a highbrow joke but not everything needs to be.

By the way, if this is all an April Fools joke then bravo! By far the best I've seen all day

See my point [I doubt the "you" will]. I should not have to not play because of what they did....again...it should have been made voluntary to be fair to all.

Ok, I'll take the troll bait. *bites the hook* :3

You don't have to not play. You are free to. Gameplay hasn't changed one bit.

Oh yes, because practical jokes are always voluntary, right? xD *logs in...dialogue box pops up* "Would you like this joke to be played on you? [Yes] [No]"

Yes I am a woman, and Anet also knows that many women play this, so they should be fair to both. I personally don't care for this event, they could have done a lot better then this. As I said in my first post on this, I think it was done last minute, with no forethought to it, and why only lvl 20 chars? Every other event has had no lvl limitations on it, or gender limitations. So why do they do this now?

You still haven't answered my question from before, how does being a stickman so destroy your gameplay experience to the point you can't play? All actions are still possible, you can still use your skills, attack, do missions and kill baddies.

On that note.... I really have to try going into a cutscene and seeing myself as a stickman xD... time to hit up the HoM.

I am sure those who think the idea is a shitpot and those that loved the stickmen, if they have reasonable intelligence that is, would agree that a fair option is to make it voluntary. Like maybe how many things are in the game...food, drink, useage of certain items, etc.....

It is voluntary...hit Alt+F4 if you don't like it then play another game for a day, read a book, watch a movie, shit do something else if this bothers you so much

When you agreed to the terms of the license agreement, you became the willing.

The candy corn men from halloween are all female therefore anet hates men. I can use broken logic too. The event does seem rushed as it doesn't affect level 20 chars but stop with the sexist bs.

Think about what you are saying for a sec.... OK, this event makes you unhappy, I'm sorry about that and can understand everyone doesn't appreciate it, but seriously, how many of the other events that they have are voluntary? Granted they don't happen in all areas of the game but any major town you visit you are subjected to them. And by the way nobody is "forcing" you to look at anything "all day long". Simple solution, if it's causing you grief, hit that little "logout" button

Actually the candy corn is genderless, and that is an optional thing that you control alone, not like this. and Anet does like guys, look at the yuletide tonics, a male elf there

Oliasys · Apr 01, 2008, 05:27 PM // 17:27

ummmm, quite obviously people do not read the entire thread before posting......scroll to #130......taking book on how many posts to me there will be regarding the aforementioned topic........after #130

HawkofStorms · Apr 01, 2008, 05:27 PM // 17:27

Oliasys is either

a) really unfunny April Fool's day joke attempt
b) out of his mind/feeling super entitled over a game he owned for 2 weeks
Either way, all his crap (and this post as well) needs to be deleted asap

point is it is something you can do if you choose to this is something you can't, point is if Anet is going to do this they need to represent both sexes. as they did in the previous one. I'ts all fine and well they have a male elf and a so called female candy corn. where is the balance here when we have no choice?

You see... April Fools day joke or not... that stuff right there is the definition of trolling.

You are intentionally posting just to tick people off. That should equal ban. I don't care if this is a dummy account. I don't care if you are a mod (especially if you are a mod, you are abusing your position). This sort of behavior is a childish disruption.
