See, I know they're a troll. Other knows they're a troll. And yet, the OP's poor quality bait always gets some legitimate hits.

So here I am like...



…Every time the OP makes a new thread. And their Highlander counterpart. The 2 have to be connected.

They are in the same fc. It's probably the same person on 2 accounts, cuz all the alts in the fc have names like theirs.

I'm always wondering what new Gay Reference he's going to use with his next avatar. Honestly, this one is less interesting. Also, he is more literate that his opening post suggests, which just makes me want to shake my head and laugh. Because if you are this illiterate, there is no way you're smart enough to navigate the Mogstation to create a User Name, Account, and set up a monthly sub. Seriously, need at least a semester in Computer Science, Information Science to navigate their website and billing.

Like this one? ^

You do know that no matter where this thread is sitting on the forum at the time you post, your post swings it back up top?

It's one thing to take the bait, and another to tell people, "Hey, this is bait. And this is why you don't take it." It's like telling people cake is bad for you while woofing down a slab yourself right in front of them.

That's when you say, "It's okay in moderation".

All of General Discussion is troll threads. I choose not to be affected by this fact and simply reply to those that interest me.
The style of localized English by Koji Fox and the team is to give it a unique personality, a characteristic feel. Using modern layman's terms would ruin the mystique.

Uh, most of them can be understood easily from context.

I'm not even a native speaker and even then most of Urianger speech can be understood that way. Even things like Jacke's Thieves Cant can be understood without being English major.

Doesn't take much to understand "bene cove" means "good guy" and so on.

I agree completely, but some people seem to think that if there are words they haven't encountered before then they don't understand those words.

What does "by his most puissant hands" even mean lol?

You've heard "has their hands in everything" or "has big hands" as a subtle indicator of great strength... perhaps among other things? Just work from there.

Puissant = having a lot of power or influence.

Most of the words aren't exclusive to an English major vocabulary by any means, though. They just happen to be older words and, more rarely, older structures.

Most of the time they require to be more wordy but allows greater precision in tone or reference (see... back in their days, memes may have been a thing, but they couldn't be used in outright lieu of understandable sentences), and other times they're actually quicker because the meaning of the word hadn't yet quite been tracked into such specific meanings as we now give them. It's a look back on language where you win some and lose some and it's just generally fun to play around with.
