It’s not like me to lose my rag - not online, anyway. There is, however, one thing that has been anoying the beJebus out of me these last few weeks…

I’ve been logging onto the chat quite regularly, and I check every evening to see whether other players are logged on. Unfortunately, sometimes what can appear to be a populated chat-room turns out to be merely a panoply of statues.

Maybe I have developed a hair-trigger temper, but I find it really annoying when there are people logged in to chat but not participating. You’re asking for it, you crazy tempters of statue-defacers, you! :)

Hmm, Outis, I hate to say it but those *statues* might have talked to you all the time and tried to stop you. For some reason, a few people couldn’t see what had been said in the main chat window but only IM. Maybe that was the case with you, too?
Be careful!

Have you also considered that taking your clothes off and running around naked does not exactly create an incentive for others to start talking to you? :P

I’m sorry you all had to see that.

Paraphrasing the line from Oscar night all that time ago… “the only way [I] can get a laugh is by taking off my clothes and showing you [my] shortcomings”.

Well, I hope you’ll all come visit my nudist resort in Pepperland once GNE starts up again. If you take your clothes off there and start running around, it’s guaranteed that someone will speak to you, even if it’s only the proprietress: that’s why the resort exists, after all! It’s really quite relaxing to be in a clothing-optional space, and body acceptance is a marvelous goal and a very healthy way to raise a family. Please visit, regardless of whatever “shortcomings” you may assume you possess.

I guess that sort of assumes we’ll have some sort of clothing objects itbg. I assure you, though, that if I do wear clothing because of propriety in the game and take it off, it’ll only be to let my poor fish scales take a breather *sniff*.

Wait? Have we been naked all along??

Bad idea, eating that apple.

I’m gonna wear a suit with a Hawaiian shirt if we can buy clothing items :)
