Maglubiyet gets the SHAFT!

[Forrester]

Well, I am sure in hell not buying the new Dieties & Demigods. Sure, they've got Gruumsh. Sure, they've got Kurtulmak. But where is MAGLUBIYET, damn it?!?!!

The other problem is that it's completely useless -- hell, maybe if they made avatars weaker, they'd be playable -- but I'm most concerned about it's Maglubiyetlessnessocity. Bastards!

3E Racism against goblins raises its ugly head once again.

Um, I think you meant to say, "3E Racism against goblins raises their ugly heads once again." Because, you know, goblins is ugly.

I can't say I'm surprised to hear this kind of bigoted goblinphobia -- this surfacecreature racism -- on these boards. Would it be that we lived in a more enlightened time.

*sigh*

Well, there's always 4E . . .

Well, you can't be surprised -- after all, the 3E Ranger is nothing but a xenophobe. He gets to pick his "hated race" after all...

Its all the fault of that elvish propaganda

What the goblins really need is to hire themselves a good PR man.

A few good movies where Goblins are the downtrodden heroes victimized by nazi-like elves would do the trick. Give the shows a catchy theme tune and presto, everytime someone hears it they think goblin=good.

And a line of plush toys would surely help that ugly image. Look what is has done for Cthulhu.

Or even an ugly dude like Quasimodo. Hmmm, maybe a Disney-treatment of the Goblin Condition is what we need to turn our attitudes around!
