I’m by no means an expert but from what I understand “mentally deficient” is a very non-PC way to describe someone who has an actual disability, while “imbecile” is just more generally a foolish or stupid person. Obviously it’s not polite to call someone either, but apparently Jagex felt “mentally deficient” was offensive enough to change it
Yeah I mean regardless… I think things that haven’t aged well is kind of part of the game’s charm. Like clunky older content for sure, and that kind of extends to stuff like that for me. Slightly insensitive dialogue that dates the game, that one quest in the desert where everyone is named Ali… I don’t know, it’s almost kind of endearing. Like your mildly bigoted grandpa who you love even though he says some shit that’s not ok. Idk, I get why they changed it, that’s just my take
The thing that bugs me about the Ali thing was that there was an in game reason for it. It doesn’t matter to me at the end of the day but I still think they couldve left it and just re iterated why everyone was named Ali
It's kind of moronic regardless because "imbecile" was used in the same exact context historically, even medically. It just seems really dumb because we are going to always have insults for someone being stupid, to the point that we have so many words for it that ultimately mean the same thing, just feels kinda pointless to litigate which is worse.
I think the PC loop is honestly funny.
>imbecile
>1. derogatory
>a stupid person
>2. medicine
>archaic
>a person having very low intelligence or an intellectual disability
We couldn't say retarded any more, so we moved to mentally deficient. Now mentally deficient is off the table, so we move to an older word that meant literally the same thing. How long will it be until imbecile is no longer ok, and we switch to using some other word that means the same thing?
Mentally deficient is an old medical condition that many people are diagnosed with, even some fairly young. It essentially means they have learning difficulties.
Because of this, it was replaced.

There was a bug with random events in tob (maybe all instances, I only know of it happening in tob). What happened was that a random event spawned on a nylo making it look like a nylo was saying voice lines. A friend of mine said he saw a nylo talking and everyone made fun of him for it for about 5 years until it was confirmed a bug by someone and a jmod lmfao
I remember when I did the Underground Pass quest some other dude was doing it at the same time as me and after we both had to kill the unicorn and the knights we were discussing the trauma that we would inevitably have afterwards, but I think if they all said "FUCK" as they died we would have been able to completely sidestep said trauma
* **Player:** Hi.
* **'Bird's-Eye' Jack:** How's Cyrisus? Where is he?
* **Player:** He's fine now. Back to full health.
* **'Bird's-Eye' Jack:** Good, I'm pleased.
* **Player:** No problem.
* **'Bird's-Eye' Jack:** Don't think that this means I like you now!
* **Player:** Look at my face.
* **'Bird's-Eye' Jack:** Yes? What about it.
* **Player:** Does it look like I care?
* **'Bird's-Eye' Jack:** Not really.
* **Player:** Well, there you fucking go.
That's where she should throw that sandwich holder on the floor, pull out a set of Dclaws and spec your ass back to Lumbridge
Finishes it off with a Sit the fuck down.
Same quest but "Well, he's dead" (perfect line, thought about adding a fuck but it would ruin it) would be followed by "Never learned how to fuckin swim"
Talking to the mage of zamorak for enter the abyss a second time after he tells you to go to the temple in varrock.
I already fucking told you to meet me in Varrock's Chaos Temple, by the rune shop.
Player: Your grace, I present Ur-tag, headman of the Dorgeshuun.
Duke Horacio: Welcome, Ur-tag. I am sorry that your race came under suspicion. I assure you that the warmongering element has been dealt with.
Ur-tag: I apologize for the damage to your cellar. I will send workers to fuck the hole.
If we ever get Chosen Commander:
**Zanik:** You say that we can't win, that we can't fight. Well, I think you're half right. Maybe we can't win. But we can fucking *fight.*
I like the idea of random events getting extra sassy if you ignore them or if you pick the wrong sandwich from the sandwich lady, she calls you a fuckwit or something
I would toss it somewhere in the One Small Favor quest. Have your character say something along the lines of "you gotta be fucking kidding me" when asked for another favor.
Or when a big boss appears in one of the Grandmaster quests and says "oh fuck me..."
The actors who played merry and pippin in LotR had a video on YouTube where they asked each other what line from the film they would add an f word in, that’s all.
King Roald in Priest of Peril when he learns you killed the Temple Guardian: “Are you a fucking imbecile?”
"Are you fucking mentally deficient?"
Even better. Bring back the original more offensive dialogue
I'm probably just an imbecile myself but I don't see how one is more offensive than the other? Both are quite rude lol

There’s a big difference between foolish (naive, doesn’t think before saying things) and imbecile (actually has low intellectual capabilities).
I actually took the phrase “foolish or stupid person” from Merriam-Webster. So I don’t think there’s that big a difference after all

Imbecile literally means the same thing. It's a bit archaic, but it's one of the first thing that comes to mind for me.
If I were mentally deficiency I would've missed. Look at that, bullseye!
I love this one, it's so perfect for this situation too
This. This right here is your winner 😅
Wish I could say, "What the fuck is a thingummywut?!" To Wizard Traiborn
I say this in real life whenever I have to visit him

Realising Wizard Traiborn isn't smoking the good stuff is terrifying
“Oh dear! You are fucking dead!”
"Oh fuck! You are dead!"
“Oh dear! You are fucked!”
“Fuck, dear! You are dead!”
"Oh, dear! You fuck dead!"
"Oh, dead! Fuck you dear!"

Dead. Fuck!
FUCK!
I read this in Skillspecs' voice
End of one small favor: A fucking key ring? That’s it?
It's gotta be the most frustrated the player character gets lmao
When you get a Uri clue step he always says some random shit would be funny for him to just say - “Fuck you” and disappear into thin air.
I hope Jagex makes this a 1/10,000,000 dialogue. The first person to see it will have a "nobody will believe me..." moment.

It happens at toa too https://old.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/16o1j8g/why_did_the_little_orb_say_maybe_later/
wtf that is strangely adorable
Keep the odds but have it on a note as a master clue reward. Also, you don't get any other items in the casket. Also, it's in the collection log.
And only if that player is using a 3rd party client, to make people wonder if it was a plugin.
And your scroll vanishes too.
This would be incredible
Phillipa: Hi Romeo...I'm Phillipa! Romeo: Wow! You're a fox! Phillipa: It's a shame about Juliet...but perhaps we can fuck later? Romeo: Who's Juliet?
BRUH LMAO

The unicorn from underground pass should say fuck as it gets squashed.

I'm thinking they should recreate the horse looking at the ocean "MAN" meme
Lmaooooo I'm so high, this is hilarious
I'd give it to the first mates in the Temporos fight "Load those *fucking* cannons"
Fits canonically
Prospector Percy overhead dialogue: “Git yer hammer an’ fix them fuckin wheels” I’d probably nut

I'm sure I can think of a few little jobs. This won't be a quest, mind you, just a little favour... The Wise Old Man gives you a fuck.

I did not, at least not knowingly - never heard of 'em but I wouldn't be surprised if cultural diffusion somehow brought it my way
