Streisand effect building. You can feel it.

[RenoFox]

Thanks for notifying me of the word changes. I dont know if I'd have ever noticed, but the foul names always make me smile when I encounter them.

[Alluvian_Est-Endrati]

Thanks for the files. Tried some modding last night and noticed problems with all of my custom language files; lo and behold some nice person had already gone through the effort to merge the new and the old.

[narhiril]

And here I thought the errorlog was just venting its frustration on me.  Downloading now.

Good thread, good download, posting to follow. (perhaps said streisand effect will prompt us to add many new words to the dictionaries ourselves)

The legends of Puriletowers, the Tinklepoopies of wee-wee!

TEEHEEEHEEHEEE! "tinklepoopie!" Heeheehee...

Wait. Waaait. Hold the press, wait a minute. This game had naughty words?

@ People getting upset over naughty words being removed from the game; your bitching is immature.
@ People getting upset over "naughty" words having been in the game; your bitching is immature.

Now, I'm gonna go and continue and dissect a goblin, sacrifice a few kittens to the volcano and continue on with my child-friendly ways.

I was merely pointing out the redundancy of removing them as per your 2nd point. if somebody is getting offended by foul language in DF, but not by butchering kittens, and brutal violence that THEY need to reconsider their definitions of wrong.

[Girlinhat]

I swear if he says it was to make it more child freindly... the last thing we need is a horde of 5 year olds all over the forum saying "OMG THIZ GAM SUKZ MINCRAT EZ BETTERZZ WAHHH"

(if you are a DF player under the age of 12. fucking congratulations you are awesome, get this mod and go slay a goblin named incestslut.)

No one can argue that anything is child friendly.  This release has added literal blood raining from the sky and staining every patch of soil and every dwarf on the surface, along with actual zombie death hordes and necromancers.  There is NO POSSIBLE WAY that Toady (or anyone) could EVER argue that ANYTHING in DF was made to make things more gentle.

Noooottttt quite what I meant.... but lol.

[nenjin]

It's possible Toady just found the words puerile, when half a decade ago, he didn't.

Like when I encountered a civilization named "The Plague of Rapes"?

[Slax]

More is less, except for when it comes to mean ol' dirty, evil places.
Gotta have some grit in a game like this.

[Powder Miner]

Eh, I'm fine with it.

[kaijyuu]

Wouldn't "dirty words" ATTRACT said immature brats, rather than push them away?

I dunno 'bout ya'll, but the whiny brats are the ones INTO "adult" themes because they want to be seen as adult. People who are actually mature don't care if it's adult or not; it's a neutral attribute, not a positive one.


So yeah, fears of attracting "5 year old minecraft fans" are horribly unfounded. If anything it'd push them away a bit more, as they'd probably be here for the "blood guts magma death rawr" anyway.
