Paper Dolls and Glamered Armor

We're those release notes a complete marketing fail, or is the target audience different from what I imagine. 

Quote:
Cosmetic armor, also known as Glamered Clothing, has one type of visual appearance and can be applied for all classes, races and gender - except Warforged in most cases.
Warforged have exclusive Glamered Armor for their race.
Glamered armor is available in heavy, medium, light, robe, outfits and select costumes.
The effect of the cosmetic item can be toggled on and off on your characters inventory paper-doll, or removed from the cosmetic equipment slot and placed back in your inventory.
Cosmetic armors have unlimited uses and are bound to account.

Unethical, as well, but that's never stopped anyone before.

It is fairly natural to assume that the fair price for the pot is the fair value of the resources I needed to make the pot plus the fair value of my labor.

Is you're name a reference to you're spelling/grammar skill, or you're drama sussing ability?

Armour appearance kits have needed overhaul for quite some time, this change should come as no surprise. The term "paper-doll" is being used correctly...

So yore problem with those notes is what?

"glamered" is the correct spelling.

Maybe I missed the point.  I thought he was mocking the term glamered, although appropriate in context, as giving the unintended feeling of childishness or silliness by the term being visually similar to the term glamorous, especially when paired with paper dolls, although appropriate in context, as making it feel like they are making DDO akin to playing dress up with dolls.  Add some glitter.  Bedazzle those pants.

If he was going for the grammar angle, I was off the track.

I like glamoured or glamored better, but I will acknowledge that glamered is an acceptable spelling.  Just a stupid one whose parents dress it funny.  And yes, I do know that it's a specific term for D&D, but it's still a spellign that I don't like.

Also, I'm leaving the typo in because it's awesome.

Not a grammar angle.  You got my point.  Fixed my misspelling. Not a word I type often!

Okay, Feklar, you were that kid that was playing with barbies while the other kids were playing with GI-Joe, and you thought it was the same and you couldnīt see the difference.
Please, do not misunderstand me. I am totally OK with a male playing with barbies. But there is a difference.

It was bait. Far to obvious to be fallen for, I realize, but couldn't resist.

The difference is purely one of perspective. Other than that, it's just kids playing pretend...

Perspective is everything. Actually colors do not exist, and some guys are saying our Universe is just a projection of 2 dimensional information.

well if that's the case it proves the devs have played the game. once you've capped xp, what are you doing?  looking for that seal of house dun'robar with the stunning +10 or upgrading your celestia is not very different from playing fucking barbies and looking for the shiniest shoes.

I appreciate that's not the most pithy curse in existence, but it's heartfelt.

There's a difference between people who drink their coffee black as tar and people who drink their coffee with sugar.

You're that little bitch who drinks his coffee with sugar.  Please don't misunderstand me.  There's nothing wrong with being a little bitch, little bitch.
