Shanty Guy -"You think you're better than me, don't ya"

We will file suggestions here that did not make the cut. Don't expect detailed responses, but the most common reasons are:
- implementing the suggestion is impractical, or too much work for the gain
- the suggestion is thematically against our design philosophy
- the suggestion is too detailed/low-level
Keep your suggestions broad and focused on RP benefits, please, not detailed suggestions of how to tweak X class.

Shanty Guy -"You think you're better than me, don't ya"

Post by Manabi » Sun Sep 21, 2014 10:20 am

So, this guy spouts this out several times a minute on some occasions. Sometimes - he'll respond four times in the time it takes for the person I'm speaking with in the Shanty responds to whatever I said. (the person usually isn't a slow typer - either) It's gotten to the point where I avoid the place completely unless someone asks to speak with me inside. I don't know if this annoys anyone else - but I do notice that there isn't a lot of traffic in the building. I think it could easily be as big of a hangout spot as the Nomad if it wasn't for. . ." You think you're better than me, don't ya'." every ten seconds.

Now - sometimes he doesn't say it as frequently as other times (at least I "think" he doesn't) - but I try to avoid this place because it's just. . . over and over and it's very distracting.

Now, I'm not saying that it's not something to keep. This guy works at a place called the "Slanty Shanty" and probably makes little to nothing. He's dirt poor, and works in a run down Tavern. So yeah, adventurers with millions of gold coming in and buying enough food to last them for a year may make him feel quite low on himself.

STILL THOUGH

Well, you see where I'm going with it.

Yeah, part of the problem is that it's more than one person that says it. Both of whom seem to say it more than any of the other NPCs in the module say their idle commentary.

Come closer, we should speak .... Come closer, we should speak .... Come closer, we should speak ...

Did you hear about the sentient jelly? .... Did you hear about the sentient jelly? .... Did you ....?

In the Spider's Web, they used to kill the patron who said that. I think it must be the most often killed NPC on the servers ...
