Seriously. I undock from Detroit Munitions and see a giant PoB titled "tears collector". I don't get it. Is this supposed to be funny or something? All it does is break my immersion. When I complain about something ruining my experience, it's pretty damn bad.

Same goes for Dogecoin. The fact that anyone would put these into their game and be applauded by the community because it's "le funy meme xDDDDDDDD" disgusts me, and quite frankly I'm fed up with it. What kind of standards are we trying to set here? Are we going to have admins running around giving out tears and coffee because it's a "cool disco meme haha"?

Don't even get me started on "blodo diamonds."

Please get rid of these crappy jokes.

Thank you.

-Tal

I never was a fan of anything that broke suspension of disbelief. Those kinds of names tend to tempt me to make them nothing more then big red bullseye targets if my disbelief is no longer suspended, look at the wreckage and say 'your mission has been accomplished'.

Agreed.
Though, I don't care about them.
I didn't even know and still don't know what's with the Tears near Detroit.
No idea why the main Hessian Commodity is named 'Blodo Diamonds' either. Poor Admin.
Didn't meet anything else personally, but even if I don't care about them people still get immersion breaks.

And, yeah.
John's right.

Even if I find this thing funny, it's kinda off the scale and ruins RP immersion.
Jesus Christ, I agree with Tal.



However, I dunno, culture doesn't change much and sometimes still revolve around same things. Why shouldn't memes exist in the future?

ERMAHGERD, MY IMMERSION, NERRRRRR, I'M REMINDED THIS ISN'T REAL LIFE FOR 2 SECONDS, WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS?!


Seriously though, it's not that big of a deal, it's kinda funny, just have fun with it. If your "immersion" is ruined because of something as small as that, then you're just nitpicking or taking this game way too serious, either way, it's a problem on the player's end.
