You'd be amazed. If people didn't really care about infractions, I wouldn't have received so much abuse in my inbox.

Also, infractions lead to banning, which leads to peace and quiet for the rest of us.

enchilado 06-17-2011 09:08 PM

I don't give a fuck about infractions. I've only even gotten one, though.

What's with all the rage in this topic?It seems everyone is having a go at each other.

Did 'ya log in just to say that you mother fucking creeper? Also you need to put a space in your signature between EVER and try or I will roast you.

^_^

Ooh shit, scrabs were going to be arachnid sr. originally...how come? They resemble a spider naught. Phew.

Nate 06-18-2011 06:27 PM

Remember when I told you to shut up, scrabtrapman? That still applies.

quiet now my fellow wallace clanianionian

also of course there was going to be some resemblance in the games wildlife there is in basically all games

even odd ones...

People (generally BM) look to far in to this shit. As someone said on the last page, glukkons, sligs, muds, gabbits, vykkers, interns (well perhaps not interns), steef, clakkerz, outlaws and wolvarks are all just based on aspects of human personality. Mudokounmay have evolved from birds but that does not mean they have bird-personalities.

Lorne isn't some deity who spent an eternity constructing OddWorld so all the species make evolutionary sense.

I was generally interested that time!!! Why would they call paramites and scrabs arachnids sr. and arachnid jr. ? I can understand the paramite being arachnid jr. obviously but scrabs...I don't see the resemblance.

enchilado 06-19-2011 05:32 AM

I don't see the resemblance of paramites to arachnids. Not any more so than scrabs, certainly.

STM 06-19-2011 09:04 AM

The webs and single part bodies...do nothing for you then?

Dipstikk 06-19-2011 10:33 AM

How's this thread's logic work on Vykkers and Interns? Wolvarks? Are they based on vikings and wolves? Interns... well, that's self explanatory.

I miss Farzad.

Oh, sorry, I guess after Stranger'z Wrath we should be calling them VYKKERZ, WOLVARKZ and INTERNZ.

Welcome to Oddworld Forums, where everyone's know each other for so long that they've come to despise each other.

Arachnids aren't the only things that make webs and arachnids don't have single-part bodies.

If I shouted at you, cobwebs, please don't tell me you would shout back CADDIS FLY LARVAE.

Devers 06-20-2011 09:49 AM

Ouch.I was just giving input ya ass.That was at ScrabTrap Man

Fiction Skull 06-20-2011 10:29 AM

Ya, they designers had to get inspiration from some where but to be honest I think Oddworld creations are far more interesting (well...duh)
But oh! I do know that bats are bats and bees are bees xD

Slurgs are obviously based on hairdryers.

enchilado 06-21-2011 10:41 PM

Chant suppressors are based on security systems.

Sliglover 06-23-2011 09:22 AM

I think paramite= parasite

Don't be thick, they are obviously based on Cyclops heads.

Phylum 06-25-2011 02:23 AM

Am I the only one that thinks they resemble olives?

Connell 06-25-2011 05:08 AM

Anyone else think Oddworld resembles those Abe games that were on the PS1?

I do try, my friend. Evidently not hard enough..

Manco 06-25-2011 05:10 PM

I was thinking the inverse was true.

gishygleb 06-25-2011 10:57 PM

Paramites are
spiders + termites;
scrabs are
snakes + crabs;
slogs are
crocodiles + dogs;
sligs are
mollusks + bodies.

enchilado 06-25-2011 11:01 PM

Will it never end?

Phylum 06-26-2011 01:34 AM

Answer is
no + way;
