Miscellaneous: Game / Character Loading text is out of era

[Rygar]

I always hated the joke text that comes up while game is loading, so came across this while doing some BoredQuest at work: The text that scrolls at the bottom of your screen after you log into the game is out of era (it was originally all those dumb joke phrases during Luclin). Evidence:

Here is the quoted text:

Luclin's been released, and along with the moon, we have a planetfull of new easter eggs. The first happens while loading. If you watch as the game loads, there is a progress bar which details which features are being loaded. But wait - not all those features are so well documented! Look a little closer, and you might see things like:


Told You It Wasn't Made of Cheeze...
Hitting Your Keyboard Won't Make This Faster....
Ensuring Everything Works Perfektly.
Loading, Don't Wait If You Don't Want To....
Adding Randomly Mispeled Words Into Text....
Spawning Your_Characters01..
Checking Anti-Camp Radius...
Creating Randomly Generated Feature.
Look Out Behind You.
Doing Something You Don't Wanna Know About..
Does Anyone Actually Read This?.

Have You Tried Batwing Crunchies Cereal?....

Polishing Erudite Foreheads.

Whacking Trolls With Ugly Stick.
Looking Up Barbarian Kilts..
Ensuring Gnomes Are Still Short.
Stupidificationing Ogres....
Attaching Beards to Dwarves.

Now THAT's funny!

The wayback date is after Luclin release on that link, but it would have to be (since text didn't exist pre-Luclin). Obviously the phrase 'Hiding Catnip From Vah Shir' would have no place in classic, and while I didn't see it posted above there is a quote in the P99 text that says something like 'In the Grey no one can hear you scream...'.

May seem like a trivial thing to fix, but for players logging in to P99 it can hurt that Nostalgia feeling.

I'm at work so don't have my P99 files, but I recall this text listed in a .txt document, hopefully can be coded out in some new patch files?

Fixable for green? Shame to see these phrases with classic character select screen now implemented.
