Q u o t e:
why can i skinn cows but not taurens?


Because their skin is protected by hides they themselves have skinned from other animals including cows.

Q u o t e:
how can u kill a mob more than 1 time?


Because they are Legion, for they are many.

Q u o t e:
howcome u cna enter a instance, and 24 hours later its back exeactly the same it was before?


Secret holodeck technology! Shhh... don't tell anyone.

Q u o t e:
when u kill an mob, why cnat u loot the items hes wearing?


Because the mob's corpse is lying on top of the items and are therefore unreachable... and because they are sticky and they smell bad.

Q u o t e:
how can u loot a ogre or, how can u loot a skeleton of gold? =/


They need money too for their epic flying mount... they just have a shortage of pockets and hide their gold elsewhere!

Q u o t e:
howcome that when u kill an instance boss, he drops a lousy gem, and u cant p[ickup his bigass weapon hes wearing?


The bigass weapon is bigass for a reason... it is too heavy!

Q u o t e:
why do we need pvp enabled to bash someones skull in?


Because it is an honourable thing to warn people before you bash them... and if honour is not your thing, then re-roll PvP ;-)

Q u o t e:
why doesent my minion ever atack me? i missuse him alot.


Your minion has low self esteem and has therefore giving up fighting for for dominance!

Q u o t e:
why cant hunters tame feral druis / criters?


Because you cannot tame intelligent beings... Yes! Critters are deviously smart!

Q u o t e:
why cant u equipt more than 1 quiver?


Because 2 are too many. Rambo didn't need more than one quiver for his bow, and he took down an entire army!

Q u o t e:
how can an undead wear a 2hander?


Because he has 2 hands?!?

Q u o t e:
how is the cape always whapering when an orc casts?


Because the power is overwhelming... and probably because he is casting up-wind

Q u o t e:
why do undead females only know how to bend ther eknees and wavether ehands when they dance?


They forgot most of their dance moves when their bodies first died... That also explains the limited dance moves of the male undead.

Q u o t e:
why cant i trow a critter at someone and posibnly kill him whit 1?


Because Critters are deviously smart!

Q u o t e:
howcome we got flying helicopters while airplanes where there before helicopters?


The airplanes are reserved for the air-force and as such not available for civilian use.

Q u o t e:
how can u learn to b a masterswordsmith, and sudently forget abouth it and learn master axesmith?


I think this comic explains it best:

Q u o t e:
how cna u unlearn sword spec/axe spec sct, by fisiting the class trainer?


See above mentioned comic.

Q u o t e:
why cant u learn more than 51 things?


Because of the limited capacity in the humanoid brain at level 60... you can learn more things at level 70 when the brain has evolved further :-)

Q u o t e:
why canta warlock learn priest spells if he study's alot?


Because Warlocks are not allowed to buy Priest books and scrolls at the bookstore.

Q u o t e:
why cna u only have 1 minion out at once?


It is a safety measure to only have one minion out at a time. If you had two or more minions out, they would bicker and fight amongst themselves and forget everything about their surroundings and the task at hand.

Q u o t e:
why do u need a lvl to wear gear? its not that i need age to wear cloth =/


The higher level the gear is, the more difficult it is to put on. Gaining a level = gaining more knowledge on how to dress efficiently.

Q u o t e:
when i kill an player in pvp, why cant i loot him?


Because that player would tell his mom if you took his stuff!

Q u o t e:
I'm pretty sure that our CM's forward all the important issues, why wouldn't they?
Relax, take it easy :)


Ahh but we do that indeed :-)

Unfortunately we don't always have anything to post regarding those important issues, and if we do have something to post, then we must double-check that the info we have is actually correct and up to date. This often involves input from other teams and/or the developers, meaning that small, simple and often ignored factors like time zones will have an influence on the speediness of a response to a serious and important topic. It can take a lot of time to make a post in a serious-issue thread, but we actually do post when we have something to post.

A feel-good casual thread like this on is nice and easy for us to post in, because it doesn't require much time and research beforehand before we post.

Q u o t e:
I wish Vaneras was so prone to answer relevant questions.
I guess he won't have to answer real issues for the next 3 months, his answer quotum is filled :(


Well there is no such thing as an answer quota, but as I said before we do post answers to relevant questions whenever possible. I assure you that we are not ignoring those important issues and concerns that people frequently post about.

You are right though, if you think that I often have a tendency to post in a lot of fluffy, feel-good and casual threads, but that is because I personally like such threads a lot. I really like the laughs and the nice community spirit that are often present in such threads, but I do acknowledge that some people feel that fun and community spirit is completely irrelevant when there are other matters that could use some attention.

Q u o t e:
I bet ya that first reply you did took about 20 minutes? :)


Not really... The thing that took the longest was copy/pasting all them quote tags :-(

I spent more time on the two other replies in this thread :-D

Q u o t e:
how do i get rid of this headache? :<


Aspirin and water! Or something else if you are allergic to Aspirin :-)

If your headache is caused by hangovers, do not try the reparation-beer trick... That one is a trap!!!

If everything else fails and your noggin is still hurting, then you should consult a doctor!
