    Thumbs down Warforged Pimps are getting old

    Dear Devs,

    Ok. The joke was funny on April 1st. Unfortunately, it has remained the main and first headline that someone reads when they log on to the DDO website. I referred a friend of mine to try out the game last week. He read that article and immediately got very afraid of playing something that is so anti-D&D. He decided not to download the trial. LOL! I have since explained that fact that it was a joke but i'm sure it has confused others who have read it. Since it does not have "April Fools" written anywhere in the post and is now well beyond anyone thinking of April Fools, isn't it time to remove it or at least add "April Fools" to the post?

    Thanks!

    Oh no, the game has one less player with no sense of humor.
    Seriously, the devs here are merry campers that pull silly jokes all the time, and the game/forum is filled with hidden jokes, funnies, and puns.
    Looking for Ham?
    Wish Cakes?
    Candy Canes?
    Eebil Stenck the Troll?
    The Necropolis Tombstones?
    Otto's discoball of dancing?

    and the mightiest of all...

    MENTAU THE FLESHMAKER

    Now, if you expect a game with Mentau the Fleshmaker to be almighty serious... you need a reality check.
    Chill man, it's just a game.
    Or did you find a Disco Ball to be immersive with a fantasy world?

    you forgot to mention the tip

    "Good, Bad, I'm the guy with the +5 shocking heavy repeater" (can't remember the exact wording but you know the one)

    But ya the game is full of stuff like that and alot of them crack me up every time I see them.

    Then I can also see the other side of it. I mean HOW DARE THEY take something so SERIOUS as this game in such a JOKEING MANNER. I mean come on we can't have any FUN while we are putting in ALL THIS WORK into a video game. /sarcasm off

    I actually thought the devs where putting together something like a WF fashion show or something when I first saw the "pimp my warforge" thing on the login/server select screen and it didn't even dawn on me it was an early (for my time) april fools joke till I saw that thread of alot of people takeing it seriously ... now that REALLY cracked me up.

    I was just hoping to get some new docent skins out of it...

    Maybe something with little angel wings...

    a spiked docent where the spikes are long and floppy like fur.

    a spiked docent that has spikes that get longer and shorter...undulate sort of.

    fairy/insect wings?

    little propellers...wait! no...bad can of worms...sorry!
    Noep

    You miss the point. I think its funny and I enjoy all the merry pranks the devs play. Did I ever say anything about expecting the game to be more serious? I just think it could do with a "April Fools" at the end of the post if it going to remain the headline article on DDO's website.

    Incidently, my friend told me he read the post too quickly and actually thought they had given the power of flight to the warforged. He neglected to read the spell description of "Fly" and "Super Fly".

    I for one would like to see the removal of all humor from the game, including, but not limited to Menthos the Fleshmaker. I cannot do the quest without the need for a mint.
