The town of Saint's Wetlands

perhaps you should take your own advice

Please.

Anyone know how the attackers could have broken into the paliside like that?

Battering Ram.

[SeanPan]

That would have taken 24 hours. Evidently, they were not prepared for such an eventuality.

[TeckXKnight]

It's entirely possible they claimed their gate and built a ram in front of it. If they were silly enough to not have vandalism for whatever reason, they can't break the ram anymore. Hell, without trespassing they wouldn't even be able to open their gate. That or they built a gate and timed it perfectly to expand it at the right time.

[SeanPan]

Wouldn't have it been enough time for the denizens to have opened a side gate and just run like crazy, though?

[Fiction_Stick]

They built there city next to a river. Not surprised at the outcome.

This is definitely a good reason to kill the inhabitants. Oh shit, they live next to a river, better slaughter them all for no good cause. Just uninstall your clients and go play WoW.

I'm confused. Are you telling me to stop playing?

It is common knowledge that building your village close to a river is bad idea. Oh and LP is good enough cause for a lot of people.

LP is so hard to get. Ruining someone else's experience for a few thousand LP shows that you're a selfish douchebag and won't last very long in the game, at least with 1 character without any ancestors.

[SeanPan]

Its a pretty damn entertaining way to get LP when it comes with the knowledge that you're causing misery and suffering along the way too, I have to say. Schadenfreude, look it up.

"Other researchers have found that people with low self-esteem are more likely to feel schadenfreude than are people who have high self-esteem.[23]"

Quoted directly from wikipedia.

Congratulations on confirming to the entire forum that you are, in fact, a complete loser.


Also:

Brain-scanning studies show that schadenfreude is correlated with envy.

So in other words, you jelly.


I also found it pretty hilarious that it said: See also - Bullying, cyber-bullying, sadism, and victim-blaming.

That varies on where you're from and your birth language. English speaking countries don't have as strong of a root understanding of Schadenfreude and we see evidence of this not only neurologically but linguistically as well as we've failed to adapt and develop a word or similar definition for ourselves. Slavic nations, Germany, and I'm sure many other parts of the world have a deeper connection to it.
To put it bluntly, where you're from determines what a word means to you and what evokes it/what it evokes. It's kinda of amazing, really. I've had the pleasure of rooming with a Linguist this year and you learn so much when you cross studies.

So ya, I'm just going to repeat what your teachers always tell you to not cite wikipedia and be careful about the information you take from there. That said, statistically it's about as accurate as any other encyclopedia with the bulk of its errors lying in nationalism, bias, and the sciences. If you ever want to see internet rage, watch the Korean Japanese War article go back and forth. One side says that the other commit horrible atrocities, the other says that they acted bravely and civilly for war times. Neither is wrong, it's just how you want to spin the exact same thing. Brilliant~!
