If that's not an intentional troll post, it's a terribly sad commentary on how far the bar has been lowered in society.

Troll fail.

There's more violence in TV than in DDO

Isn't there a way to turn it down? I seem to recall seeing that in the settings somewhere. Not saying there should be if there isn't, that's dumb.

It was actually me who started that topic. I wanted to demonstrate that IT IS POSSIBLE to get lower.

And btw nignog... I WOULD NOT HAVE EXPECTED THIS SIDE EFFECT. You coming in and immediately realizing the troll. I am impressed. +10 vault cred and +2 dropbear confirmation points for you.

Or "it takes one to know one". A lot of quotes would be appropriate.

Btw I was actually thinking on gathering trolls from here and swarm the original moboes with similar dumb topics. Since the mobo is utterly useless now, why not just ruin/dumb it down completely?

I'm not seeing the downside, here.

Don't you mean like pissing into an outhouse? Because I wouldn't consider a turbine product comparable to the ocean in its beauty and grandeur.

I'd posit that his intent was to express pissing would make no meaningful impact. I'd then argue that if ones intent was to imply pissing made no impact a tank full of piss and shit would be more accurate an anology then the ocean. As a tank full of human waste is far more accurate an analogue then something as amazing and life sustaining as the ocean. Seriously turdbin as so many less civil use here being compared to ocean or outhouse which sounds more appropriate an analogue.

Guess you need this spelled out.

Peeing into an ocean is a reference to differences in scale.  Volume of the oceans = ~1.37 billion km3.  Volume of an average pee = ~300-500ml.  Adding or removing 500ml of liquid from an ocean is virtually unmeasurable with regard to the overall volume of that ocean.

Peeing into an ocean is an analogy implying that the official forums contain massive amounts of stupidity and troll posts.  It implies that adding a few additional troll posts from people here to that would effect the same level of quantitative change in those forums as adding a cup of pee to the ocean would, which is effectively zero.  Yes, it is not actually zero, but it would require so many significant digits to actually measure it that it does not matter.

I'm not an outhouse expert, but I suspect that the volume of liquid they contain is respectively small enough compared to a glass of pee that adding said glass of pee to it would at least be a measurable change in the quantity/volume.  This makes an ocean a much better comparison to illustrate the insignificance of a few extra troll posts on the forums.

It has jack all to do with the beauty of nature.  It has jack all to do with outhouses.  It has jack all to do with the actual quality of the game.  We're talking volume/quantity and you're trying to inject quality into it.

I found it... setting is right next to the rage-quit option toggle...
