Necrobacillosis

No seriously this is a real disease that I learned about today. And the funniest part about it is that the disease kills cows/cattle. Its like a poison that seeps into the hosts pores then a bacteria settles in and exponentially expands throughout the entirety of the bovine and eventually kills it. The point of this thread which I find interesting is that the disease is diagnosed by bacillus which can be found on the outside of the cow as rod/cylindrical shaped sores on the skin. yucky. :scared: Which are nicknamed "Lictors Wand(s)"
Anyone seeing a correlation here?
Im guessing that maybe the designers at blizzard were aware of this disease or perhaps used aspects of it, and incorporated them into the game. Just a thought that I wanted to share with my fellow nec's.
So next time your spamming a nova in a cow game think of this thread please. :thumbsup:

Quite funny... not for the cows, though.

However, imho you should have posted this in the OT thread.. It's the definite place for everything necromantic and funny.

That is indeed funny in that certain sick sort of way. :lol:

Tengu was correct in saying that this belongs in The Graveyard.

If I ever got around to buliding a Bonemancer, I was gonna call him OsteoNecrosis. It's a medical condition that literally means "bone death".

yea well I could care less if you think this should be OT. It has to do with diablo and the necromancer class, so why post it else where? Maybe you should start a new forum called OTRPGForums.Net. Sound good? :lol:

I think they meant it in a very positive sense - so as not to lose sight of this interesting piece of information. Things tend to settle and end up on page 888 after a while when posted separately. The current Graveyard thread (of this very forum) is sticky, so it stays on top, and even the old graveyards are archived as part of the necromantic lore. :wave:

Welcome Newcomer to The Darkness. Grab a brew :drink: and feel free to raise some corpses.

Very well said. You deserve another drink. :drink:
