[Lord Dakoth]

They're supposed to be nature-loving, tree-hugging, dirt-worshiping bastards, right?
Well then, why is most of their stuff made out of wood? Where do they get their lumber?

[Vester]

We assume they hug the trees into useable shapes.

[Akigagak]

Tree-singing. It's in the raws, but not possible ingame.

[Quietust]

There's also the matter of them treating tower-caps the same as all other types of wood, both for treecutting quotas and for trading - you'd think they'd be GLAD that you're cutting down and processing giant self-grown subterranean mushrooms instead of deforesting the surface.

[Holy Mittens]

Honestly, I think the elves aren't really pissed that the dwarves cut down trees. I think they're more upset that the dwarves are entirely wasteful with them. I mean, it takes them an entire tree to make 1 bucket!

[Vester]

They are either gigantic buckets or tiny trees.

[XSI]

Those are dwarven buckets, look at the megaprojects, a dwarf never does something small, it's always huge.

I'd bet you a masterfull plump helmet roast elves can drown in those buckets.

[Sensei]

A dwarf can occupy the same square as a bucket, so I doubt it.

[Psychoceramics]

A dwarf can occupy the same square as a bucket, so I doubt it.

a dwarf can also occupy the same square as 50 dwarves.

[Phantom]

Its also seems obvious buckets, if the buckets are huge, have stairs, and dwarves push it, with their beard.

[Shad0wyone]

Buckets are the same size as barrels  .

[Gergination]

A dwarf can occupy the same square as a bucket, so I doubt it.

a dwarf can also occupy the same square as 50 dwarves.

It seems quite obvious why dwarves never have to specifically breed with this going on.

[Gculk]

A dwarf can occupy the same square as a bucket, so I doubt it.

a dwarf can also occupy the same square as 50 dwarves.

The dwarf menaces with spikes of dwarf... 

[Sphalerite]

Claims of being tree-hugging protectors of nature are just an excuse.  Notice that not only do they object if you cut down tower-caps, they get mad if you resell wooden objects they themselves sold you, or if you sell anything made from wood they supplied.  The truth is that the elves are trying to maintain a monopoly on the wood supply.  Attacking you if you violate wood quotas isn't about protecting nature, it's about using violence to squash any potential competitors to their wood-supply racket.

[Stargrave]

this is the first description of the elven stodgeyness thats ever made sense to me. the elves are capitalist pigs trying to hate on our worker's paradise.
