Every single time you killed one, as soon as that mob died, "Scrappy the Coolest" would pop up, play the Slappy song, and you were literally forced to dance the whole time. Even if your characters were dying of dots or adds, or roamers that came up on your group, you had to dance. [/quote]
Thank God I wasn't around for that. It would make me hate the game I love. I quit right when the level cap increase came out, and didn't come back until F2P. I only played off and on as time allowed, so I never did the POTA grind, which I know was made easier. The 50-55 grind was crap in itself, even after F2P.

Re: Just Curious...
I curse Slappy, I curse him and all the needless bloat from IoD. I think you guys are right in saying he was a herald of the end. It showed how the dev focus was moving away from a more gritty, serious world (Allbeit with some VG styled humor) to more of a goofy, pandering mess.
That stupid pink wyrm too. It could go on....
Ugh, I feel myself getting annoyed lol
anyways, the ideas of the Slappy cliff toss are great!, or even an epic quest to get him into irons in the middle of NT. scratch that, I don't want that lol

Re: Just Curious...
[quote="Jakkal"]I feel like Slappy is the hatred and angst of early VG developers, coalesced into a tiny entity that goes out of his way to enrage any player he appears nearby.[/quote]
This.
Ya possibly the single most truthful statement I have read concerning VG and it's SOE devs --ever.

Re: Just Curious...
Would it be possible to place Slappy's corpse, face down for eternity, at a key location in the world, for all to see? Or maybe some cruel and just irony at the spawn point of mob? Just some ideas. Make him boss or raid mob we could kill?
