So, I got curious about what the spambots (aka "guests") looked at when they came to the Saga boards. Apparently...they have a thing for Halfling porn. One was checking out this old thread:
http://sagafamily.org/index.php?topic=4283.0 (http://sagafamily.org/index.php?topic=4283.0)
Seriously? These things really existed?
HAHAHAHAHA
salacious
460+ views for a 3+ year-old post with only 8 replies. Dirty, dirty Halfling porn-loving spambots.
*sits back with popcorn and waits for the Halfling versus skritt porn race to heat up*
P.S. Have these boards always autocorrected "Halfling" to have a capital 'H'? I only just noticed...

Yep, at least since the current incarnation of the software. It capitalizes anything it recognizes as a racial/ethnic adjective like American, English, and Romanian. I'm not sure who put Halfling into its database and yet not dwarf, gnome, or troll.
I obviously have not been posting enough Halfling recipes. For pie and such. ;)

... as in these are recipes for pie made from halflings, or halfling recipes for pie? ???

It's a vague tease to spur on a Halfling stampede. I don't actually know any recipes with Halfling as the main ingredient. I never could make a decent Halfling eating evil troll, ogre, or dark elf back in the day. I tried, and I was really awful at it.
And mainly, I'm just looking for excuses to repeatedly type 'Halfling' in my posts because the autocapping is amusing me. It doesn't take much. ;D
Weird, it didn't capitalize my halfling.
I bet my iPad and phone autocap Halfling for me.
Sroth, Your halfling must be ------- this tall to ride this capitalization ride.
Hmmm. Mine didn't work either. Using Chrome on a PC.
That's odd, Halfling always capitalizes for me using IE on Windows 8. *shrug*
The only "Halfling" recipe I know of from EQ2 was for Halfing Pickles, which you could learn from the pickle seller in Freeport, IIRC. I never asked exactly what part of the Halfling was being pickled ... I just don't want to know.
On the other hand, "Halfing recipes" are great! Jum-jum pie!
IE 50,000 on Windows 8 minus One does it, too.
Very fitting that a thread about Halfling porn has morphed into a thread about how one part of the word Halfling keeps rising to the occasion. So to speak.
And Halfling.
Maybe Chrome is smarter than IE.
Halflings halfling halfling
Apparently Chrome on an iPad doesn't auto capitalize.
And, btw, Tuppen has the sexiest feet hair in all of Rivervale.
Who ever looked at Tuppen's feet?
salacious indeed. No wonder the porn sites come here.

Mixxi did! Considering EVERYTHING she could see, she was very careful to stare ONLY at his feet.
And, since we have several new friends here, in the interest of full disclosure and shared discomfort, here's what we're talking about (it was the result of a graphics glitch in EQ which made Mixxi see everyone naked for two weeks--sadly, sans fig leaves):

I recall back in the day, when this was first posted, thinking as follows....
Moment one: Hahaahaaahaaaaa!!!
Moment two: Say, why did the person who edited the pic place the rather large maple leaf, with the point oriented in that specific manner? Verant couldn't possibly have made the race models fully anatomically detailed...could they? Oh my.
Moment three: Redacted for reader sanity.
These are the ways one's mind wanders during those old and rather long load screens while logging on for the evenings hunt. (Right after perusing the boards.)
Haha, wow. Hell of a glitch! :D
Sadly, no genetalia. And Mixxi, being a Halfling, was just the right height to have this emphasized again and again, especially in that pile of people at the Nexus bank zoneline.
Women had breasts, but no nipples. Equally disturbing.
And Mixxi was wearing the quested Crafted plate, so she was naked, but blue. Ugh.

So lack of nipples was a problem not specific to bards? Interesting.

Inky Loompa! Bizarre!
Yeah, that was what I found out later...no fiddly bits. For better or worse. I mean, as much as I imagine it was disturbing in a way to wander around with all the nekkid but built weird folks...probably would have gotten just as old, especially at halfling height, were the fiddly bits represented in all their glory.
Mixxie was a pygmy inkie...hilarious!
For those that do not mind a quite a bit of raw language in their stand-up, I am reminded of a bit Katt Williams does about bring friends with Shaq: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRbgRNmyTqw
Oh ans Jasyn, wasn't that only wood elf bards?

Yes, but only if you want to raise it to a fine point.
This shot and the shot of Tuppen may be the only still-existing documentation of this bug.
Strangely, it's of a male wood-elf. Coincidence? I think not.

Spock?
Jasyn....*shakes head* :D
And as for nekkid elf-Spock....it must have been Pon Farr.
That's the first time I've seen another example of the "bug".
Not that I didn't believe Mixxi, but, well, she does love halflings something fierce.
RATED M FOR MATURE. :exXO:
I envision this as a new MMO based reality TV show.
Fierce love.
In the pilot, we explore the psychology and motivations a much loved halfling warrior, Mixxi. Mixxi is a pillar of the community, but few know she secretly has a dark side.....is she really seeing everyone else naked? Is it a wild substance abuse related delusion? Is she stalking Tuppen in an effort to de-leaf him?
Tune in and see the shocking story!
I think the whole Tuppen/leaf thing was just a foreshadowing for the provocative Sylvari/leaf thing.
*reminds herself to keep all the Tuppen/leaf pictures away from Keyes*
