oh my, but this one looks silly:) big head! as if someone was choking a ballooon animal!;p

Now now. No need to nerdrage here. It was a joke all in good fun. And sometimes things are based on myth, sometimes things are coincidental, but in a LOT of cases, there are in fact copied and reproduced Models from Within the WoW files used inside another game. And because there is a lot of it, people tend to go straight to "It's a copied Model/creature etc."Senna-Umbreon wrote:Seriously?! The post with that mount was made back in 2007.

Just because something looks slightly like some creature from WoW, does NOT mean it's copied. In quite a few cases, the creature is based on some myth, or legend.

I was never nerdraging, I was just pointing out that there was no way it was copied.Gimlion wrote: Now now. No need to nerdrage here. It was a joke all in good fun.

And besides, if the people saying things like this were extremely in all seriousness flipping because of it, they'd be nerdraging at Blizz too for all of the creatures/ideas blizz 'copied'/borrowed from Wizards of the Coast/DnD. Owlbears have been around a hella lot longer in DnD than in WoW...
... I wasn't riled up when I replied, but to be honest, I am now. I'm rather tired of people thinking I'm getting all riled up when I'm just defending my own opinion! Argh.Gimlion wrote:Alrighty. You seemed a bit riled up over the situation, and I hate seeing people mad, so I was trying to defuse the situation. Sorry for any mix ups.
