Man, I feel that one. I was okay just reading the review but then I tried to look at the actual class.....that's...why am I actually trying to decipher this..

How much of this has been hitting dndwiki lately?  :o

You think that's bad, I actually had to read it in depth.  And comprehend.  My brain attempted to escape twice before I nailed it in place, it's still crying.  I think what I did is illegal.

He's been active, I wanna say, the last 5 days or so.  Actually... *Checks* yeah, the author started this about Sept 17 (ignore the claims of being made in 2009, it's clear it's being ported from paleowiki aka danddwiki).  I know he is on the old wiki, and so far he hasn't replied to any attempts to communicate with him.  I'm still debating if he is somehow ignorant of it (even though the message on his user talk should be on his header), or if he doesn't care.  But holy crap man.

This hasn't happened since the days of Archetyper.  I should tell you that story one day.

I keep thinking of those Bionicles toys when I read the Bionics race and Bionic Commando stuff. But then I'm not even sure there is a real connection here, just the name, eheh.

Oh my god those cat related things  :lmao

You want to know what really terrifies me.  What really grinds my gears, butters my toast, and ignites my difluoride dioxide?

I noticed that same line in the Fabled Witch capstone too. Or, well, a similar rendition.

Makes one worry that that would be like his thing for all his classes.

I love how that's the only part of this conversation that caught your attention  :D

To answer your question:  Cattra and Catastrophe.  As you can see, they're terrible. 
I'm not arguing, I'm explaining why I'm right.

The worst kind of cat related things.

Actually I forgot, his Cat God class doesn't even show up on his list cause he forgot the author box.  Check out Rise of the Cat God, and weep.

Oh dear god, it's like if bhu had no concept of game balance, good taste, and the English language.

In other words, nothing like bhu.

Words have failed me.

So... Clarity Edits only. I could make a strong argument that editing 'grammatical mistakes' and 'unclear ideas' would allow me to delete darn near those entire articles.

I'm tempted to re-write all of them into something that makes sense.

I looked at the Cat God capstone. Quite aside from the SUMMON ALL THE CATS and +1 to all rolls per nearby cat...

I dare someone to come up with a class that gets a quadrupedal caster level without it being entirely nonsensical.

Also, I'm now starting to think this guy is just a troll. Because really.

Ha ha, at the rate he is building up opposes, they'd be deleted eventually anyway.  Though... I actually suggest these be preserved (somewhere not on the main navigation).  A shrine erected to the gods of Watafuk, a symbol of how not to do an anything.

I've been to paleowiki.  I believe it's honest, they really have no quality control there.  It was part of the reason for the split (the other that Green Dragon is apparently insane).

I feel like my sanity is slipping through my fingers. I'm getting worse and worse with people.

How exactly?

Are you losing patience? Do you have issues speaking? Making sense of what people say? Recognizing that other people have hopes, thoughts, and dreams? Hate? Anger? Distance?

Because if so, you're in good company. Though I'd hardly call my company "good".
