You don’t even eat meat!!! Your goggles could make meat look like plants though.

The kt druid forms are awesome… The one downfall is you won’t be able to see the leg of meat?!

Meme spec? What is this new kiddy speak? This what they calling hybrids now?

Apparently so. I’ve seen multiple pug MC/BWL signups that said “no meme specs. Sorry boomies, rets and spriests”. They sometimes say they will take one geared spriest (lol @ gearing spriest) if they have 3+ ‘locks, but really. Just say “No hybrids” right?

Amazing, lol. I love those KT druid forms and I’d kill for a knockback stun. Haymaker might be the only racial ability that’s both really good and fun to use- most are one or the other.

Ugh, the terminology. Smurfs (brainy, papa and hefty say just stop), meme, omegalul.

I think I’ll just start calling people Fudds. Elmer Fudd seems like a good name. Right? First name out of the hat. People that follow this IQ melting gamer speak that makes no sense shall now be known by me as Fudds. :rofl: :joy:

The language that’s evolving from twitch is especially degenerate. Omegalul like you said, kekw (why even add a ‘w?’), jabaited, etc.

Hard pass. I’ll stick with terms that actually make sense, not some made-up thing my 5 yr old could create.

Gamers used to condense terms for convenience. FPS (first person shooter/frames per sec depending on context), MMO, AoE, pug, p2p. Now the terms might as well be groovy, radical, tubular, gag me with a spoon, Valley Girl speak.

I hate it… It’s awesome and useful, but for enhance I don’t want to make it any easier for them to kite me :joy:

Really eh? Seems kinda weird because none of the raids currently out are thaaattt hard…

Sounds like a epeen swinging thing to me. Back in the day when raids were unknown elements and you needed to get all your ducks perfectly in a row to make a go of it, it quasi made sense. Now? Everyone knows the raids and can carry for some lacking dps or whatever.

Even for melee, it’s so nice as a defensive to create some breathing room or to just take somebody out of the fight by launching them off the z-axis and watching them waddle all the way back up.

I wish we had more racials like haymaker. Things like reduced stun duration are really useful… but so bland.

It’s okay for sure… I don’t know about good… I have a hard enough time reaching people. Dark iron has been super consistent. It’s pretty fun waiting for a rogue/feral to dot me up and then popping everything with big fat dmg buff.

Yeah… I wish some of them would get a rework…

You can’t win, Fudds is already in use by some elements of the political corner of the on-line community. It’s a derogatory term for gun-owners who support traditional hunting guns but favor gun control for other guns such as handguns or “tactical rifles”.

On the other hand, many words have more than one meaning depending on context so for the gaming community, why not? Fudds is now a derogatory term for people that follow IQ melting gamer speak that makes no sense.

Wow! Lawd, it’s always something. :laughing:

They seem to use cartoons a lot. Age thing? Really no idea. Elmer Fudd popped into my head as a cartoon reference. :joy: I loved Bugs Bunny/Merrie Melodies when I was a kid.

Wth did I just watch?

We’ve discussed this before!

All I know is it looks like a little cartoon Psy on the right at 1:11. :laughing:

I have no clue what that is. You mentioned it before - I still don’t know lol.
