And the deathtoll could rise!

Now the first thought to go through my mind was, "Oh, that's awful!" and the second thought was, "Wow! Six with a knife! Talk about your overachievers!"

That guy has epic melee skills. I bet he had to grind for ages to get that good.

Ah . . . butIwasworkingononeanditistheonlyclassthatisanygoodwhydoyouhatemeI'mgoingtoquitplaying!!

Nah. They'll give shamans a totem that gives +50 to defense against sashimi knives, but will balance it out by making it the same class as all defensive totems and then nerf shaman damage against everything with a pulse.

But all the Knifers are gonna QQ about it in OOC chat.

You know, we really are awful people. :D

Not as much as the shaman players will. But, then, since last quarter's suicides, there's not that many left to QQ.

China tops Korea in the stabbing stakes:

1. He killed all his 6 victims. One of the Korean victims leapt to his death, so can't be counted as a stabbing fatality;
2. If you add him to the total (since he was sentenced to death) it's seven dead;
3. He went into a police station and attacked 9 policemen, killing 6 policemen, wounding 3 others before they managed to take him. This in a country where all police carry guns. The cops must have thought he was Terminator from the first movie!

Depends really. If the Chinese police have poor response training, the guy could easily have closed the distance and done some serious stabbing before anyone else had the presence of mind to draw their weapons.

Dear Player,

While we appreciate your dissapointment with our descision, please understand that its done in the interest of all players at Stabbity World TM.

The suspect, arrested at the scene, told police he did not want to live because "everybody looks down on me,"

Ugh. Then kill yourself, dumbass, not other people. *annoyed*

Not really. He could have just utilized his sneak skill and unleashed a whirlwind attack. True he got critted by subdual attacks, but he would have easily taken down all six before going down.

What, human sushi?:eek2:

They really need to lower the knife fighter stats against ranged attacks. I mean he took out 6 ranged weapon wielders????

Hang on, hang on... we're on page two, without a gun-nut posting something about how this all could have been avoided if everybody had a gun or two?

What happened??!!??

He was killed by the sashimi knife. :D

We have a case where there were at least 7 guns involved, and 6 of them were wielded by people who died. Kinda hard to make a case for that when half of the victims were armed.

Well, I remember a few posters here who would just let facts get in the way of their opinions like that... poor style indeed. ;)

You've never been to China, have you?
Don't fuck with the Chinese police. They don't need much encouragement to take their guns or batons out and use them. Plus they all know Kung Fu! (really, they do!)

On the other hand, if the knifer had been screaming "DEMOCRACY NOW!!!!" they'd have opened fire immediately.

I was going to recommend outlawing knives.

But seriously. If this became a fad, think of how many little asian people would be running around trying to get the "high score."

And you know Americans always have to try and out-do everyone.

So by owning firearms and believe I have the right to own and use them, makes me a nut?

Of course. Everyone knows that owning a firearm automatically makes you a blood-crazed maniac who must kill three living beings a week or lose control and go on a mass-murder spree. Why, as you were typing that, I bet you killed six people who were guilty of nothing more than passing by.

*passes over the flamethrower*

Remember to aim for the face.

That's just stupid.

Don't aim for the face. They run around longer if you aim low.

No it is the people who harp about owning automatic weapons for personal use I see as nuts. Not really the people who own them for hunting and recreation.

You've never been to China, have you?


Been there, stayed for a while. They can easily move to violence once they've psyched up. But quick response to unexpected situations, I haven't seen anything impressive. I suspect training differs somewhat from province to province.

On the other hand, if the knifer had been screaming "DEMOCRACY NOW!!!!" they'd have opened fire immediately.

No, that would be the riot police, a different breed from your run of the mill police officer.

No I supose you could go GTA on people that would be recreational and Fun, But that might put you into the realm of nut.

Sounds like something from Grand Theft Auto.

Back on topic:
Both of these knife guys had MAD NINJA SKILLZ.

I wouldn't be suprised if the Sashimi knifers get nerfed in the next update.

You're forgetting though, that the next update includes dual wield (with the option of Sashimi knives), so the nerf will functionally be nerfed.

I was at work, and it's not my turn anyways. :tongue:

Owning automatic weapons usually is for recreation (that, or collecting). See here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrwgGsmoCRw

Yes lets give the twelve year old a 50. caliber machine gun.

The little girl wasn't shooting a .50 cal machine gun at the beginning of the video. From what I could tell, it was one of the Browning M1919 variants, which is .30 cal. And she was supervised the whole time she was firing.

Yes lets give the twelve year old a 50. caliber machine gun.

Nah. I'd rather give them a .60 calibur rifle.

Yes lets give the twelve year old a 50. caliber machine gun.Let's give them this (http://www.globalsecurity.org/wmd/systems/images/football3.jpg)!

That's crazy .. along with the other link to knife killers!

I :mp5: with the cool hat.

cept I'd probably be using a revolver pistol.

I would have loved to have a .50 caliber machine when I was 12. All I had was a Stinger Block I

Its possible that the man ran through the building stabbing the other tenants in the confusion.

Smoke coming out of the same building, people on the floor possibly dead, while a man runs around with spattered blood all over his shirt, its enough to shock a person.

That guy has epic melee skills. I bet he had to grind for ages to get that good.

He could have simply been a 1st Level Warrior, most commoners can be killed by an angry cat.

On the other hand, if the knifer had been screaming "DEMOCRACY NOW!!!!" they'd have opened fire immediately.
Or "Free Tibet!!".
And then gone after his family. Off topic, but I read on the Beeb site that China's cracking down on media freedom now that the Olympics have ended. Like no-one saw that coming.
Well, no-one other than Rogge, but he can't see a thing due the huge pile of money China had stacked in front of him.

Nope. Believing crime is being prevented by civilians carrying guns would make you a nut.

Pistachio?

Then I guess I'm batshit insane.

Pistachio?Yes, do you like pistachios?
Are you going to eat me? :eek:

Yes, do you like pistachios?
Are you going to eat me? :eek:

Yes, and maaaaaaybe, but only after roasting and salting.

wait wait wait. . .is it the pistachios or the person your gonna salt and roast. Cause personally I prefer my people either made into soylent green or pan fried . .. you know. . . depending.

Soylent green, ugh. Tasteless stuff that. Pan frying on the other hand, tends to waste the nutrients and saturate it with extra oil. Roasting on the other hand, if done right, seals the flavor in.

As for what I'm talking about, why, nuts of course. The type is up to interpretation, but I do like for them to mature a bit before putting it on the table. :p

Now what about grilled person? You can add barbecue sauce and spice to your liking and while it wastes some of the juices they taste amazing . . .personally I like mine medium rare.

I can never grill foods right, much less nuts. They burn too easily then.

I've aged. And changed.
Watchinng that ad where I was a nipper made me hungry.
Watching it now, the only two things I could think of was:
1. The chocolate being slurped onto the almonds made me think of coprophilia;
2. I couldn't help but notice the two bars were 'Almond Joy' and 'Mounds', the last two words combined are 'Joy Mounds'.

I've been looking at waaaayyyy too much porn on the internet.
