Short Forum Survival Guide

New here? You have been to many internet graveyards, but tavern still weirds you out? Here is a short list that should keep your account safe and unbanned!
-

Things that you should avoid mentioning at all costs
:

-Any features that were removed from the game, especially Mountain Dwarfs
-Cheibriados
-X/Y is too weak/too strong
-Any new features you would like to see implemented
-gender
-any form of scumming
-Felid
-Dual Wielding
-Cooking
-Pizza


Avoid any form of interaction with:

-Any moderator
-Any dev (orange nick)
-comebackshane (except reading this post)


If somebody asks you:

-You are only playing online and only playing console version. Tiles doesn't exist.
-crawl is too easy.


Generally:

-Make every post sound as crawl were a highly scientific matter whereupon the fate of the world depends and not just a game.
-If you can't code, it's high time to learn it now. Back everything up with a patch.
-Do not ask why certain people can get away with questionable things scott-free while you can't. Just stick to the guide.

-duvessa is god

Re: Short Forum Survival Guide

Here's a sample post to help get you started successfully trolling CYC:

Ever since Mountain dwarves read the scroll of genocide, Cheibriados has been far too strong. The bonuses he gives you are just way out of line with his drawbacks which are minor, if any. Felids combine especially well with Chei, since they're fast and so they don't suffer as much of a movement penalty as a normal speed race would, and they're just a generally excellent race all around. By the time you reach level 16-17 you should be strong enough to scum the abyss indefinitely, until you have acquired enough randart jewelry and mutations to make the rest of the game absurdly easy...I mean, even easier than it already is, am I right? Let's bring back 4.1. About the only problem with Felids of Chei is they won't be able to make use of my new dual wielding system, which really takes what was already done with gyre and gimble and ramps it up to 11. Dpeg's already approved it, although I don't think the support is necessary, an idea this awesome, whose time has come, stands on it's own. Anyways, more on that later, I don't want to blow your minds too much yet, twelwe's cooking and pizza tornado branch is coming out in ~1 month, so this will probably not be done until may 6th, 9:30pm. I've already passed off a beta build to duvessa, who said it's "the most righteous crawl project I've ever seen". Unfortunately minmay thinks it's only average, but he probably just doesn't understand the complexity behind it yet. Dowan knows it's awesome. I haven't made any tiles for it yet but those can come later, it's not really important right now.

Yeah, but is Crawl too random? I like the sort of randomness that shadow traps and spider webs add to the game, but I don't like it when things hit me and actually deal damage. When are we finally going to talk about that, huh?

Re: Short Forum Survival Guide

I hate weeaboos. I don't conisder myself a weeaboo, I'm actually Japanese for real, well almost. I will be when I live in Japan though. Right now I'm studying japanese, japanese history and I'm following Bushido, the way of the warrior. This is why I hate weeaboos that know 5 words in japanese and use them all the time, kawaai baka DESU NE MOTHERFUCKER. I'm actually trying to become Japanese for real unlike all these faker wees. FUCK YOU WEEABOOS

So my question is, how good are my chances of becoming Japanese for real?

Re: Short Forum Survival Guide

lol, why would you avoid these discussion topics? controversy is where you get your sweet sweet thanks and thanks are where you get the little self-esteem you have, so this is an inadequate guide, sorry
