YES! (i would use it)

NO! (i would not use it, and i think it is pointless/unethical/gross etc.)

yes, but i would dissable it if it was an init option (all yes voters are assumed to be for an init option, only vote here if you think it should be included but you would not use it)

[Urist McDepravity]

Its better to vote for it on ESV if you want to support it.

[MrWiggles]

Its pretty low on Eternal vote thang.

[lucusLoC]

ESV does not record those against it though.

also, to make things easier for me, could you all post a bullet point for me at the beginning of a post so i can just copy and paste? i would appreciate it (because i am lazy)

You know if he does ever break down and add it in the forums will be awash with:

A. Thank you posts from people who love it.
B. Angry posts from people who hate it.
C. Argument posts between the two.
D. Befuddled posts by newbies unable to grasp the system.
E. Technical posts by people who think he did it wrong.
F. Incoherent posts by people who are stupid and think they hold one of the above positions but really just should not be on the internet.

Are creatures automatically immune to their own secretions? Couldn't we mod dwarves to secrete a toxic substance which harms them if not removed regularly? Then we'd need to design a chamber to flush said secretion away for disposal...

and thus we modded in poop.

i'd hate that, i dont want my dwarves literally covered in shit, shitting all the time and everywhere

that summarizes every controversial discussion on the internet, the most current examples on the forums being the new farming mud requirements and the ramp\channel addition

Well it would only happen at regular intervals, not constantly, and they would immediately go 'dispose' of it.

Yes. I know.

hm... i don't think that's possible yet :\

[KillerClowns]

It pains me to vote yes, but it's pretty damn low priority.

[Deon]

Now imagine a herd of animals in your fortress' bedrooms and a dining room... 100+ cows, dogs and such.


SEE THE PATTERN?!

[lucusLoC]

pleas do not consider time line or priority in your vote, that is what the ESV is for. this is a simple yea/nay

another reason to keep them chained and caged

Can I just go on record as saying that I'm far more offended by the vomit in game than I ever would be by poop? The vomit doesn't really serve a purpose, while poop can serve a lot of purposes. Fertilizer for one. One way of showing what sort of creatures are in your area. Setting up a dedicated sewer system would be awesome.

Seriously, why do people get so offended by the idea of poop, but are perfectly fine with vomit?

[Bricks]

I assume this will be (more) implementable through mods as the development progresses.  There are a number of ways it can be tastefully abstracted, while still having positive and negative gameplay impacts (the fertilizer example was good; also, I believe urine has historically been used to tan hides).  Currently you can't really manage abstract fluids, apart from the auto-cleaning dwarves do.

A poll won't solve or motivate anything.

[MrWiggles]

Urine had a whole host of uses, both human and other animals.

[dragon0421]

As long as it doesn't negatively affect dwarf productivity, I'm fine with it.  We don't need "Urist interrupts work, taking a shit." Maybe roll it into break time or sleep time.

Building functional sewers would be fun.
