Curse

I stand next to them to see if people will invite me into their group if I'm waiting for 10 minutes for some people to finish so we can party or something. Just stand there like a henchie and if someone invites me, typically just leave right after that. I wouldn't actually let them take me out on the mission or anything.

Just do it for fun.

Honestly though, don't you people even LOOK at which henchies you're bringing? Am I the only one who cares if I get Orion or Stefan? I sometimes have to pick and choose the henchmen to make sure I get the right ones. Anyone who just clicks the people without looking at them deserves to get a 10 second delay IMO. Friggin' impatient people...

It's like people who don't scroll over the items in trades, their fault for not looking.

I usually get the same henchmen. And if I am changing up henchmen or don't care which ones I get, I still hold down the "alt" button

I'm gonna create another character "Stefan The Fighter Henchman"....and stand in line with henchies in random towns/outposts

I saw the Fighter Henchrnan in Tombs the other day. I thought it was pretty original, lol.

And it is r then n...not m.

SomeTimes I'll stand next to the henchmen and when someone walks up to my character (maybe doing a doubletake as to why there's another new henchman) I'll suddenly start doing a "/flex." Usually I get no reaction but the occasional "lol" is enough for me to goof around like this once in a while.

That is very clever Sereng. I wondered how he did it.

What bugs me is people who are forming a group and I join them. Then they tell me 'too low' and kick me and take henches instead, and I'm 2 levels higher than the henches!

. Once i stood at the end of the henchmen line and like 20 people stood next to me, man the line was huge O.O

Hehe, maybe I was there.
I took some screenshots of one like that.

hey post some pics of that, those are always fun just like dance parties and other weird stuff they do there. I picked a PC by accident once also. funny though.

Something tells me there are people in this game that can occupy themselves for hours with a piece of string and some tape.

What's everyone so upset about.

Sure, it's an immature little prank that my 3 year old might do. But at the same time, it's pretty foolish to unknowingly select someone standing next to the henchmen in this game.

salja Wachi · Jun 28, 2005, 03:45 PM // 15:45

here is a little secret for ya. press control and the henchmen show up as GREEN!!!

players show up as BLUE!!!!!!!!

unless yo are colorblind it is not that hard to tell the difference

I don't do it to sneak into groups, I just do it to have fun at the expense of people who don't pay attention to what they're doing. Do you really want to group with a group leader who just demonstrated they don't pay attention anyway? Makes you think...

No most of us do have a good sense of humor. This just isn't very funny.

Not malicious or anything. Just juvenile. In the line with "fart" jokes. Most of us are smart enough to be able to pick out henchmen from players, even if you are in line.

JoDiamonds · Jun 28, 2005, 08:52 PM // 20:52

Yeah. I've never done it to try and sneak into a party, but I have done it when I want to be in a party. I'm also usually speaking on the local channel, advertising... but doesn't it make sense? I mean, that's where people go to find other party members. So I'm proud to join the mercenary likes of Claude, Thom, Stefan, and of course, Alesia.

I also find it kind of funny, just because standing in the line of henchmen is funny. Not because I think I'm fooling anyone. Just being silly.

Many people the world over, my friend. And it's no bad thing.
