gods ain't gonna help you, son.

it's the cloth they had before they have been risen again. they don't have anything to cover now, but they probably did when they were alive.
that, or they actually reproduce sexually.

If they do, that's an horrifying thought. Cue in the "boning" jokes and such.

It's just probably remnants of whatever they were wearing when alive, and they just don't care much for it now.

cuz they got swag. <-- i was given that thought by the synchronized walking slags with their angry faces in fsc that i see. they look adorable (though the fact that lag and carelessness can get you killed by them)

also cuz it's much simpler to use shorts with stubby feet rather than have all the bones showing as they walk

I was going to mention those things actually

I was just sort of needing to do something outside of the forums and wanted to throw my thought on the table before it became irrelevant.
Harvesters are the only exception to the cute thing, maybe black kats and grimalkins too. Most everything else that is at least partially alive or moving is cute in one way or another.
If a harvester plushie existed, I would still hug it full of love

Har har. I'm sure the same applies to you if people don't want people carrying on yesterday's events. Or are some people exempt from caring what others think?

Have a read of my new suggestion. Hopefully if added it will make reporting posts like yours much easier.

Your post would be an example of trolling and or trying to disturb the peace.

Edit: for now I'll carry on reporting players through 000s suppprt. I don't know any other way.

Can you please try not to publicize your thread. Threads exist in different subforums so that people who have interests in those subforums actually comment on it, as they will more likely be more proficient in stating their opinion, then to play a fool like those at Gremlin Chatter.

Please don't back seat moderate. If you think this is a common problem please make your voice heard every time someone links another thread in their post. Or use the report system currently in use by 000s.

I have read the rules, I haven't broken any of them.

I miss their bite attacks. It made the surprise of being jumped by them that much more difficult to deal with. And will there ever be a rare slag that wears short shorts?

(and here starts the tale of tsundere Apo harvester, complete with it's own shoujo anime where it ends with the knight successfully getting enough sigils to get his desired obsidian weapons and leaves Apocrea forever)

Fixed that for you.

Well they lived happily until

Well they lived happily until the Apocrean Harvester started wanting kids. The Knight was always against it, so it led to a lot of bickering. Eventually, the night started seeing a Snarbolax from work. When the Apocrean Harvester found out, he used bind to keep the Knight from leaving home. It's a pretty dark anime...

Because I'm getting a mental image of an Apocrean Harvester as a player skin in Octodad.

Well I suppose that's valid

But I'm still going to imagine an Apocrean Harvester clumsily moving through a supermarket and struggling to get milk out of the refrigerator section.
