Most orcs are really smart, but choose not to express it to other races. Gragarn can absolutely speak normal, and think things through; if you earn his respect. He usually doesn't see the other races as worthy of seeing his "true intellect" as it were. This is how it goes with most orcs. It's also a good tactic. It convinces the other races we're just a bunch of idiots, but once it comes to the battlefield they happily prove their enemies wrong. Generally, most orcs won't "act smart" to other races because they have no respect for them. Why waste the effort on "some stupid pinkie?"

My biggest complaint is the ability to buy power. No game ever should allow players to buy power over other players. It's also a massive RP-killer. How do you explain the difference between a young Knight who worked his way from the bottom up, and a fresh soul that payed $200 and is a Legendary Sword Master 5 minutes into the game.

Hosh tick fur Yaghy tu luut hut me tink?

Me alredi lurn Yaghy how tu mate, now lat need put da lurnin' tu wurk.

((I just checked my email and I got an invite to this weekend's beta test for SWTOR. There goes my entire weekend. Plus Skyrim is coming out Friday. SWTOR is also just a month away. DCUO also just went free to play. I have no idea if/when I'll return.))

Fixed.

I like the stress on life mates. I've noticed a lot of orcs are taking life mates like it's no big deal. Stop it <newspaper smack>. Life mating is rare and sacred. I'm looking at you Bog. I'm pretty sure you have pissed on Krug more than once with your constant game of musical chairs with life mates.

There's a reason I made sure that when I hold down shift that my butt wasn't color corrected.

If dem pinkies tink dem get away wif nub payin' tributes den we du sumtin wurz den wut da nubded did.

<The Following is a report written by Kheshig Warboss Gragarn'Gorkil, translated into the Common tongue.> I was tending to some business at my tent in the Nomad Village when a bird carrying a letter landed on one of the corners of the tent. I snatched the letter as the bird flew off. It was a message from Kheshig Urara demanding me immediate attention outside Alkhazar. I quickly grabbed my sword and some armor and made my way there. I discovered the Teutonic Order, The Wardens, and a small group of Orcs all organized at the wall outside Alkhazar. Kheshig Urara and Targoth Lud filled me in on what was happening. I was told that The Rex had declared war on Oren and this was the first attack. Targoth Lud had personally gathered the Wardens. We began setting up battle plans and were prepared to storm the city. We found the humans had seen us coming and there were barricades built along the walls, and in the roads.The Teutonic Order (along with Lud and Urara) stormed through the sewers. I followed the Wardens through the mountains and made my way across some rooftops and found myself at the keep. I aided the Wardens in locking down the human castle as a few of Oren's defenders tried to rush us. We lost a few elves but held the line. The rest of the attack force kept the main attack force distracted in the streets. They slowly made their way to the keep where we regrouped. We found no sign of King Enor as it seemed that most of the humans ran away. As a last message to Oren we dismantled the throne into 4 sections and handed them out to the different faction that aided us. I learned at the end the Black Axe Dwarves helped us in the fight. One piece went to the Orcs, one to the Teutonic Order, one to the Wardens, and one to the Black Axe. Satisfied we had struck fear into the heart of Oren we left with promises of a return.

<The Following is a report written by Kheshig Warboss Gragarn'Gorkil, translated into the Common tongue.> A band of humans calling themselves "Red Fist" stormed into Krugmar and demanded we hand over Bog. When questioned "why" they did not answer and instead took chase as Bog ran by. I ordered them to stop buy they kept running. We pulled out our swords to try and stop them, but some of us were knocked out and dragged away by the monks. When I woke up I had no memory and stumbled back to my hut in the Nomad Village. I started checking my wounds and making sure everything was still working. While I was checking my supply chest for food a sand rat burrowed up from beneath me with a note attached. It was from Bog who pleading for help. I wasn't exactly sure what it meant at the time, but a second rat poked its head up with a note saying he's in Sanjezal. I quickly grabbed my weapons and armor from the supply closet and rallied all the orcs I could find. We ran into Sanjazal where we found Bog trapped behind the gate with about 5-8 humans taunting him and demanding money. I gave them warning to leave the city or die. They ignored me and I issued a final warning. I yelled for attack and we slew all the humans. Bog was safe and when he came back down he told me it was a group called "Red Fist."

I think you all deserve to know why (if I was banned) I would not appeal it. I find it harder and harder to log on sometimes. I don't know if this is just me (and something I'm doing wrong) but it seems every time I login somebody is trying to start something OOC. It just really blows my mind how quickly people are willing to jump to OOC and just flat out kill any RP. I find that whenever I leave Krugmar I'm met with nothing but poor RP'rs. Heck, even look around Krugmar today and you'll see all these (non-orc) good players are just coming to Krugmar. I also find it daunting that whenever I do anything I have to double screenshot it all. I find it harder and harder to go out and do stuff because I know I have to carefully make sure everything is screenshotted. It's now part of my daily routine to go through my screenshot folder and clean it out so it stays organized. There's a point where LOTC starts to feel like work, when it's supposed to be leisure time. From my perspective every other time I login something horrible happens. I don't know if anybody else has experienced any of what I'm talking about (other than Urara). I consider myself at least a decent RP'r, so if I manage to screw up in such a way that I find myself banned. Then I imagine I'll have done something so horrible that it wouldn't be worth appealing in the first place. That's at least my view of the situation.

Actually, interracial relationships should be the hardest. If you show any weakness to a human mate then you should be ostracized from the orcs. Taking on an interracial mate is a big deal, and not many pinkies earn the favor of the Warnation. Pinkies have to actively work to earn respect from the orcs. If an orc was "soft" on a pinkie life mate then all orcs would then assume the the orc himself is soft and weak. If you give any special treatment to a non-orc mate then it's a sign of weakness. Lothiriel earned her place at Mogroka's side, and doesn't get special treatment. She lives as an orc does. As Urara said, this only applies in public where people can actually see it. In private you can do whatever you want.

Honestly, I'd like to see the Undead just go away. We don't need undead for conflict. A few days (maybe a week) ago somebody came into our TS channel and basically tried to shoehorn the undead into all of our Nation Vs. Nation ideas. We were having a discussion about conflict and the undead, and this person refused to accept any ideas that didn't involve the undead. "We're creating racial tension to spark wars" "Oh! How about one of your orcs sells his soul to the undead so they infiltrate your hierarchy and corrupt you into going into conflict." I facepalmed so hard. I would like some conflicts that don't involve the undead, just so we can move away from the mentality that undead are needed to spark conflict.

As long as you're not a crybaby you should be able to survive the crowd. The Royal Farmer of Oren can take it, so anybody that can't is on a lesser level than a farmer.

In-fact, I constantly remind humans how Krug was the only sibling with any balls. I try and say this to almost every Ascended I see; "Krug would beat Aerial any day."

Me hab hoshur ideer. We keep duin wut uz want wif our uzg. If dem shara nub like dat blah'n den uz klomp dem until dey peep id our way. Da Rex hold da deed, id am hiz uzg now, pinkies. If latz tink latz kan blah wut uz shud du wif our uzg den we peep lat anudder ting.

You might want to talk to one of your other council members. We have a deed from him in writing.
