This thread is still going strong? Wow. I had no idea our infamy and bad name spread so far... wait.... what bad name?
Look people, the only bad name we have is the one that you all give us. Please understand. The Okies are out among you all... in your neighborhoods, in your congregations, your political parties...
Is there widespread mayhem and havoc when we play? Maybe. Are there conversions from some gods to another? Maybe. Do we get noticed by DMs? Absolutely. Case in point... one of the Lesser Gods, not going to name names, but suffice it to say it was NOT the All Powerful Okie God visited Okie Reagan, Okienaut, and Okie Christ and suceeded in scattering us with Mephits.
If people
SERIOUSLY whine and whinge about the
POSSIBILITY of meeting us in the game... about the merest
HINT that there is someone out there that is so random, so unpredictable, and potentially harmful, or helpful... doesn't that air of mystery add something? If not, why do you play games? To have some gentle feathery cloud guide your hand as you change to colors of the blocks on the screen? Neversummer 4 is about strife, chaos, upheaval, battle, blood, vile enemies and righteous heroes. But what kind of hero totes a complaint box around?
If all that is too much to wrap your heads around, whatever... this is a game. And sure games have rules. And if we break rules, we'll be punished. You all seem to worry about factions and which faction has an okie in it, or if the okies will backstab factions... and all i can say is bah. If we do something that the DMs disagree with, we'll get punished for it. If we do something that the faction disagrees with, they'll come after us. If we're in Ragnar's kin, and we do something crappy to someone in that faction, I'd hope... no I'd expect and DEMAND that the faction players do something about it....
IN GAME. If they can't do it in game... then they deserved to be replaced with shell scripts.
Now... if we were out there duping items, or hacking characters, or running around shouting in
l33t speak... then I'd expect to be banned.
In the meantime... the Okies are here. We're nasty, awesome, rotten, cheerful, unpredictable meanie-heads. Get used to it, or find a faction very far away from us... or hunt us for our ears. It doesn't matter to me... I'm an
Okie.
PS Does no one look at the Deities post? If they did, they would CLEARLY see that the domains assigned to the Great and Powerful Okie God are
Evil,
Chaos, and
Trickery.
