Three Rings Promotes Lung Cancer
Mon, 03/12/2012 - 04:56
Now, many of you might be reading this and think, wow Nj, did you lose your mind, how in the he double hockeysticks does three rings support killing its customers? But hold on folks, this topic will tell you the ugly truth of how Three Rings is an evil affiliation of Sega, and mainly how Sega, sadly got duped into well this horrible mess. I personally, feel sorry for Sega’s public relations manager and marketing department to come out of this situation clean will be, almost as hard as BP trying to attempt to tell the world they care about the environment.
What does Three Rings Support?
Well, many of you have seen this item in the game it’s a pipe. This so called accessory is how Three Rings is attempting to brainwash us, to start smoking cigarettes, cigars, pipes, hookah, until finally we are hooked on the hard stuff. I for one will not stand for this, how much is Three Rings getting paid by R.J Reynolds Tobaco company, Phillip Morris, British American Tobacco, and many others!!
Now, my fellow knights I ask you to think about this outrageous support of smoking in this game. Tobacco, causes more than 5 million deaths per year, and in the United States alone Tobacco use is responsible for about one in five deaths annually. Look at the posts on this topic one of us will not be here due to Three Rings brainwashing us. Your friends in Spiral Knights might be a victim to three rings evil brainwashing tactic my fellow knights I ask you to support this thread and stand-up for JUSTICE not only for you, but every knight in Sk.
You don’t believe me that Three Rings Really Supports Smoking???
You are too naïve to see Three Rings real plan?
Don’t worry, I provided proof of this evilness:
This is a picture of pipes on the Auction House….Three Rings why do you let us sell pipes to underage people =(
Pictures of Smoking Addicts:
Conclusion:
My fellow knights of Sk, I look at all of you as my friends at times, and some of you as my lovers and others as my special one knight stands, but I care about you all equally, and I do not want to see any of you get duped into smoking its horrible what Three Rings is doing to the players in this game just the other day a guild member of mine, asked me Nj is it okay if I use a pipe in-real-life it seems so cool in-game, and I had to tell him the truth about what it can do to him, this poor soul was astonished Three Rings supported pipes which can lead to other tobacco product consumption.
So for all the knights I urge you to stand up for what is right!! I urge you to find Three Rings guilty of promoting lung cancer to all of us in a hip looking pipe which comes in an assortment of colors. Don't let Joe Camel run this game Three Rings.
If you support this movement against Three Rings habits in promoting lung cancer I ask you to voice your opinions, and join the movement!!

It is truly an awful fact...
It is truly an awful fact... even some of the monsters smoke. Not only that, but a certain 'dapper combo' ties pipes and mustaches together, ruining the name of perfectly fine mustaches forever! I've even heard rumors of a "marlboro armor".

As you all can see I've
As you all can see I've clearly fallen victim to this and if you heard me on voice chat or something, you know I sound like I've fallen victim to it too. I go through 3 packs a day alone and it's terrible. You all think that OOO's bad about getting you to buy CE, but I wish I was still that naive. It won't be long until they start marketing OOO-brand cigars and I'll smoke one each and every FSC run to celebrate. I'll be dead by the time I'm 25 and I'm already 21. This sort of marketing has to stop. :(

Fancyness
Why do you assume it's a tobacco pipe? Had you any class at all, you would know that OOO wouldn't implement such a plebeian thing in a FTP cartoonish game. No, it is a bubble pipe, from which you blow bubbles. We of the Spiral Order are far too refined to debase ourselves with the lowly tobacco.

My pipe has smoke coming out of it. Not sure what it is I smoke but when I log back in the guildhall is trashed, nobody will speak to me, and I seem to have eaten all my jelly gems. I may need rehab.

Probably smoking the same stuff as Jim Henson.
@Sir-Didymus: Is all that smoking how you lost your sense of smell?

Nope
The gas is just some steam.
Remains of the Steam Knight Helm technology.
Bubbles are too dangerous, sometimes you get the odd exploding soul.

Don't worry Nj, I'm too
Don't worry Nj, I'm too stingy/poor for a pipe accessory so I can still remain one of your One Knight Stands ;-)
I'm only using safe accessories like Helm-Mounted Display, Maedate, Knight Vision Goggles...
...or Barrel Belly with some Jägermeister to keep me warm in those Cooling Chambers and Ice Maul Arenas...
...oh my...
...maybe I should start a thread about the threats of alcoholic beverages...

If only smoking wasn't so
If only smoking wasn't so expensive. I'd so grow a mustache, smoke a pipe, and wear a mining hat. Every time I try to buy one the price skyrockets into the 200-300kcr range.

I'm surprised no one mentioned that OOO has been promoting gambling long before it started promoting smoking.

The Royal is Absolute
Tobacco is bad for the human society. It kills millions of peoples, and OOO is supporting this. It's an outrage! They are brainwashing us to smoke tobacco products.

Dunno what you're talking about. My pipe isn't for puffing. It's for burning incense to keep evil at bay.
Still working on the right combo to keep Grimalkins away though...

Nah bro
I just have too much smoke inside my body. The pipe acts like a vent.

Very amusing.
However, I should point out that this isn't a threat to our knights' health. Their armor is supposed to be completely sealed, so there's no way to breath in the smoke.
The snipes, on the other hand ...

Don't listen to Njthug. This
Don't listen to Njthug. This is just another one of his ploys to raise the price of CE. Do you guys want that?
When fabulous accessories go up on the AH, some players choose to move their crowns from the CE market to the AH market. With less crowns flowing around the CE market, it makes it a wee bit harder for CE sellers to exchange CE for crowns at the lovely price of 7.3k/100CE. This leaves CE sellers two options: lower their price, or wait and wait and wait and wait and wait and wait and wait. As buyers, we CAN choose our prices! Boycott the CE market! Make your offers unreasonably low! Don't forget, the customer is always right. Why shouldn't this be the case in the CE market?
Not to mention pipes and dapper combo makes players look more sophisticated.
Also I demand a dragstick accessory

The lung cancer thing is kind
The lung cancer thing is kind of a joke,
but the game actually does promote gambling with its UV system (Punch / rage crafting and all of that) and it cannot be denied. In fact, there was even a thread about OOO promoting gambling and someone thinking about quitting because they had to get away from it before it consumed their money. Laverna? I have proof if you think I am makin' up crap: it's the search bar.
It simply cannot be denied that they promote gambling. If it is denied they are either protecting themselves, in denial, or they have something to hide.
"I just have too much smoke inside my body. The pipe acts like a vent."
Clever!!! +1, we are robots you know

OOO 2012! Make them famous for causing lung cancer!
They draw you in with the appeal!
All your fellow knights wear them, you think that it's "cool" and get sucked in!
These crimes have to stop!

@saphy
Nj and I have been asking for a tux/money suit since beta. Complete with top hat, cane, and little dollars in our footsteps like vog swirls.
I know I look sophisticated and swag sitting around with my pipe & pipe/mustache (when i don't feel like shaving) & I'm hooked. I love the way i look puffing on a pipe, I do it everywhere. Some people are so jelly when i walk into the club they actually try and make me stop! Can you believe that? I guess it's only fair to leave some of the ladies to the other chumps though, because I know you, especially you, know that this mustache and this pipe is damn near irresistible.
@everyone else
Although completely and ridiculously awesome, I gotta agree with NJ, this is totally Three Ring's fault.
I now have to pay a homeless dude to buy my groceries since i'm now banned from every store in the city (also my yoga class, my school, my job, & my grandma's house). He's quick but he mostly shows up with just potato chips and more pipe fillings.
So kids just because you know it's awesome, cool, swagswag, badass, ballin', bitchin', sweet and will catch trim like a sewing room floor, it also catches crabs..... & slaps from irritable mothers.
Don't fall for Three Ring's trap like I did.

I er... What... Wha...?
I'm not really seeing this...
I mean, sure, this IS one way to look at it.
But on the other side, IT'S JUST A GAME, any and all imitation lies within the people's choices, so even IF a game, show, etc. Promotes this kind of behavior, it doesn't exactly mean we have to follow suit.
Not much else to say, since I am pretty stunned at the posts and the following ones.

I had to pipe up
Hey now, I'll not have this libel on the good name of pipes! Pipe smoking does not promote lung cancer. It promotes throat cancer. Completely different. Check your facts!

Its not just pipes...
I'm out on bail right now. Evidently it is against the law to walk around shooting bushes with a revolver and looking for coins (at least in the city)... None of those wolvers I saw dropped anything either...

hmm...
Smoking is too dangerous...
i might accidentally light the fuse on one of my bombs~
but seriously, can you not tell that it is not actually smoke? it is simply a 2-D particle effect, pffft
because we all know if it WAS smoke, we would easily be able to craft a pipe with a Scrap metal, a Brimstone, A Blaze pepper, and a combination of shards to determine the colour

Teehee
I sold my heavy pipe for 25k crowns yesterday. :>
I started smoking from a pipe and grew a mustache to be more dapper, but the doctor said I only have three more years to live. Then he told his assistant I look ridiculous wearing a toupee and mustache over the top of a bike helmet.
This game should come with a warning not to imitate anything you see inside it otherwise all the other people who love Spiral Knights like me will end up dead. Then who will complain about CE prices?
Behindcurtai? I don't think so.
