i think i first saw that on a T-shirt some whitetrash with his long blonde hair in the
back, and short on top was wearing while fishing and resting his MGD on his big ole
beer belly.

I was 8 at the time. That expression is hackneyed.

Damn V's are gettin stupid.....Master Baitor is very clever, and it has a meaning to it other than the 'sexual' meaning, so wtf is his problem? I must admit, those others had some naughtier whois's than yours, but hey, do you actually think that Deor considered mentioning them? HELL NO! Draught obviously likes to screw with people cause he got the power to zap ya! *Slap Draught* I liked your old whois, ever since ya killed me a few weeks ago!

You idiots.......that's gotta be one of the oldest, most boring jokes ever -
"HEY VERN!!, You here 'bout that there damn good fisherman????"
"Naw Earl, Why don't you go on and tell me sum?"
"Well Vern, They say he was a Master-Bater!!!!"
Lots of knee-slapping, and drinking of Milwaukee's Best in a can.....

He was asking folks to change title. He asked me. Title is: Lochdale wanders with a Silmarillion and a gun. It used to be a bible and a gun but i changed it because according to the V+ it wasn't "Tolkienish" enuff...so I added Silmarillion. For what its worth, its a line from a U2 song as sung by Johnny Cash. Offensive names are one thing (though many find Bono offensive) but lets drop the sanctimonius, holier-than-though you have to role-play attitude. It doesn't exist and making titles comport to some ideals of "tokien rp" is not the way forward. It will aggravate people while offering nothing in the way of encouraging rp.

I think oscar shoulda been demoted, 5 levels atleast.
Unknown2000-10-17 06:33:17
This unknown fucker is a fuckin bitch! maybe he should actually put down his name so we can make fun of his dumb fuckin name!
Chauncey2000-10-17 07:05:49
Hehe, I think it's funny because it reminds me of when I was in high school on spring break one year and i went out deep sea fishing in florida with my little brother and 3 friends of mine on a chartered boat. They had guys going around helping people that didn't know much about fishing and my little brother asked the guy if he considered himself to be an amateur baiter, or it he felt that he was a "master baiter". I got a kick out of it. :-)

I think... Draught got offended cause that title
made him feel bad for what he does 99% of his free time...

I like the title, was cool, and i dunno what kinda
person would be offended by it, silly of Draught, he won't last
long out in the RL once he quit mume...
Fredde2000-10-17 08:32:36
yeah it takes a sick bastard to be offended by that title.
Uldrak2000-10-17 08:52:06
How interesting...
Darkangel2000-10-17 09:06:11
Some ainur ordered me to change my whois... I didn't know that it 'isn't appropiate
to have dirs in the whois'. Nevermind :O(
Kayara2000-10-17 09:59:33
Imagine a character in 'The Hobbit' or 'The Lord of the Rings' running around with a big sign on his back/shield/armour saying 'Master Baiter' - doesn't really fit in, does it? *shrug*

thats cool song
Relim2000-10-17 11:10:52
What next? OscarMeyer the Cunning Linguist? OscarMeyer will C U N(ext) T(uesday)? OscarMeyer Rogers, the Cabin Boy? I wait with (master) baited breath...
Relim2000-10-17 11:22:35
Oh...

*fnarr*

*nod self*
Unknown2000-10-17 11:36:50
crappy log
Cur2000-10-17 12:47:03
I'd say Draught was well within his rights to make you change that one. Of
course, I seriously doubt it will be missed as a peak moment in the
history of humour. ;-)
Unknown2000-10-17 13:29:54
ROTFLMAO @ Relim!
Daevia2000-10-17 15:05:58
I think Kayara missed the joke.
Relim2000-10-17 15:31:06
I'm sure that Gandalf actually did come out and say 'I'd rather be a wanker than a liar'. Or words to that effect. *nod self*
Gspot2000-10-17 15:35:46
They made me change my name so don't feel so bad.
Kayara2000-10-17 16:58:02
Nope I didn't, Daevia.
Nerf to Relim2000-10-17 17:47:55
Heh, when did u get so funny....? *lick*
vahn2000-10-17 19:57:44
All I can say is Oscarmeyers title was fine..... The only reason they wanted you to change it was because they couldn't think of a good title themselves.
Niccolo2000-10-17 21:16:08
Oscars title was harmless and contained an amusing little pun.

From time to time Oscar, you will see a Valar exert their power on mume for pointless reasons because it makes their shabbby real lives look so much better if they can retreat into believeing they really are gods. (I don't necessarily believe that - just think Draught deserved a flame - so don't bother wasting your time posting something silly any of you V+ :) )

Remove stick from ass.

Grimble2000-10-17 22:28:02
Draught must have done it to make mume have less "explicit language" for all the 12 and 13 year olds that play all the time now. I can just see some of the players here going up and saying "Mommy, whats Master-baiting?"
Damn kids2000-10-17 23:42:47
I don't want immature kids on MUME. Only immature adults that understand sexual innuendo! (or at least know what innuendo means!)
OscarMeyer2000-10-18 01:31:46
Folow-up to post: This is HILARIOUS and true :P

Yesterday at school (I teach reading k-5, for those who didn't know), one of my (emotionally disturbed) students called another by this name: "Nate the Great the Masturbate". I was trying not to laugh RL as I connected it to my title, as I dragged his little butt to the principal's office. :)

My whole point is, my title is only offensive if you think of it that way. Otherwise, as Tia pointed out, it is a totally harmless title. Draught had to have a 'mindset' that led his mind to 'masturbate', otherwise he would have assumed I was talking about trapping. And, to be honest, this title is FAR less offensive than those I have used on other chars, YellowSnow for example in days past :)
Aschit in the T2000-10-18 03:47:40
Mine for example.
Devlin2000-10-18 11:40:30
Master Baiter is a lame title, u shoulda changed it 6 months ago...
problem solved.... who the fuck cares if u put that u jerk off in
yer title anyways?! everyone jerks off.... why not put somethin
origonal in yer title like 'sheep shager', or 'candavor caressor' ?!
*wink*
Throk2000-10-19 08:23:22
DOH I JUST GOT THE ASCHIT TITLE PUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tephra2000-12-21 19:59:17
Maybe he's 11 years old?...... Ehr? Maybe he can't read too well? ...... Maybe he
had a bad day......... But maybe he's one of MUME's top dumbasses (a.k.a.
most of the V+ I've met). No offense to the people who deserve to be there......
