I don't understand how Dragonborn won the vote over Kobold.


I assume because people over the mental age of 12 DO NOT FUCKING WANT KOBOLDS!!!!!!

Also because the racial enhancement tree featuring Drop Prayer Beads (1 AP 3 ranks), Be Enslaved By Stronger Races (1 AP 3 ranks for trog, bugbear and ogre), Drop From Pipe (1 AP) and Jump Around Like a Bunch Of Kansas City Faggots (2 AP) were not pleasing to envision.

When you explain it like that, now I don't understand how kobolds lost the vote, either.

I thought that Kobolds won the vote, but Turbine decided to go with Dragonborn despite the vote?
  

No, let me be Frank.

I've had multiple RoSS rot just from doing the explorer points in Sands across multiple lives since it is exclusive.

I will not chone.

I did what I did intentionally and while my primary purpose was not to annoy the other Vaulties, I acknowledge that it was a side effect.


Smart people don't elicit "side effects."  They understand in advance the consequences of their actions.

Nah.  It wasn't even close.  Dragonborn beat them almost 3 to 1.  It was about a 70/30 split in favor of Dragonborn, iirc.

Pretty much.

I'm still waiting for the extra raids that I paid for with the MOTU preorder.

Of course, it was shame on me for pre-ordering the Shadowfail faux-pansion.

Third time won't get me to reinstall.

I think it is pretty tough to come back once you have emotionally severed ties with the game.  Although, it probably depends on why you left in the first place.

I love how everyone keeps ignoring the other 50% of that vote!

Dragonborn PLUS A DRAGON THEMED EVENT
vs
Kobold PLUS A KOBOLD THEMED EVENT!


Yeah - Really not a Fair Poll!



Oh and they did the same thing with their Ravenloft + Tieflings vs Psionics + Githzerai Poll that went nowhere just prior.
It's not a one vs one situation!

Aside from polling design I'm not sure how many people want to play a -CON -STR race dazzled by sunlight.

Fucking stop with kobolds. They're a shit idea. Just because they periodically beat the shit out of you it doesn't make them powerful.

Kobolds suck.  The majority of the population despises them and their overexposure in the game.  Deal with it.

Even in-game they're stupid.  They should do like 1-2 damage each, but you get swarmed by 2,000 of them at once, like a giant fucking herd of rats, pouring out of every available space.

Things are fucking two feet tall.  Who the hell wants to play that?

This.

I loved them in Crystal cove, it was novel, clever, and fun. But the unrelenting barage of kobolds has made me as sick of them as of a pop song that gets played twice an hour for weeks on end.

SSG didn't get a creative influx, it's still the same people who try to give the players novelty by finding the thing the players said was the most novel, and spewing out variations on it for update after update, and then get pissy because the players aren't grateful.

I couldn't care less about Dragonborn, but I voted for them to try to break out of the kobold rut.
  

Turdbin, keep changing the DDO rules, because McDonalds sold over 200 billion hamburgers by changing the recipe for their Special Sauce every couple of months to keep interest up.
