Do you tease lalafells?

The fact that someone can sit here and type out essay-length posts about how making a tongue-in-cheek joke about a player-race in a video game is harassment/reportable is really, really sad.

Please take a deep breath, step away from the game and maybe spend some time outside.

I have no idea why I’d tease them simply for being a lalafell. It doesn’t seem funny to me, and usually jokes like that are lacking very much in originality. Recipe for cringy moments, esp between strangers. Personally I find lalafell amazing, if I ever roll an alt they’ll be one.

i don't tease i would just /pet , they are too cute .
but i met some sick people when i was playing as a lala that would just kick me out of duty just for playing the race .. it just shocked me that some humans with brains think or act like that ..

/petting and emoting fun/banter in instances in general, I'm all for it, but when it comes to those types of jokes, I don't like them personally. It only ever comes off snarky. Like if someone says "Oh no, a lalafell" it reads kind of like they don't want me there, which sucks. I know it's probably not that, but it just comes across that way to me. Different people perceive things in different ways, and I don't think it's unreasonable to be not-good at taking those sayings as jokes. That's my two cents on it, anyway :v

You are right though not many would willingly group up with a lala we are cursed or so they say.

the problem is not that someone is making these jokes. the problem is that it feels as if like 90% of all people aremaking these jokes. it is all over the place all these jokes and memes wherever you come and look... i dont even know why its supposed to be funny. even if nobody means these jokes with bad intentions the amount of these things are so massive... its bothersome.
i have an lalafell alt and while i dont really care about tve memes and jokes (dragoons kinda have the same life in a smaller scale) i dont understand at all why people think its funny to call a lala potato. i know of people who changed to another race because all the jokes tore on there nerves day for day for years

Twice I have had one smack me on the bum. They are at the right height to get up to mischief.

If by tease you mean give out HQ cookies, milk and pat on the head, then yes.

I enjoy the memes but I let lalafell players play in peace. :p

It is, depending on the quantity, tho a reportable offense. No matter if we all here think it's just a silly joke. If you push it too far and someone (no matter the race or whatever) reports you for it someday you might face some punishment.

At the end of the day it doesn't bother me too much. I can handle jokes. I shrug people off who call me names or other things. But not everyone stays that calm about it. And it just needs a couple ones out of thousands to report you.

To me, the fact that people can sit here and promote stuff that might, depending on the quantity, get their account terminated is something that is really sad to me.

It just needs one person who hits the report button and a gm with no sense of humor to send your account into virtual oblivion, if that's a risk you want to take is for yourself to decide.
