"Well met!"

That one is especially annoying if you've already made friends with him. And he's already paid you. For mercenary work.

I've never been so quick to kill a guard in all my life. :wink:

I don't care if you are in good with the Dread Father. In my line of work, secrecy is kind of paramount... and I don't need morons blowing my cover wide open.

So usually, it plays out like:

Guard: "Psst, hey! I know who you are..."

Me: *slices throat with dagger* or *-twang- as arrow hits his throat*

Guard #2: "Halt, you've committed crimes agai-"

Me: "Yes, I'd like to pay my fine now."

See I do it the shadow way, if on the job my target is now changed for the time being and I will stalk the guard until I got em in a quiet secluded spot and then do away with em :drag: no mess, no fuss, I'm the only one who knows he's crumpled up in a corner of the town :devil:

As mentioned above, not lose of the wonderful "Well met" greeting.

"Well Met Kindsman"

I do like that greeting.

I do like that greeting.

I always thought that, that line " well met kinsman " was tied to race? When I play my breton it's the other bretons who greet me this way, where as the nords will make a remark about me being a breton. And as my nord it's the reverse, the other nords greet me this way while the bretons make a remark about me being a nord. My khajiit always gets called a cat :swear: stupid pink skins!!!! My orc always gets treated like a criminal( even though he is ) :devil: So I`m pretty sure it`s tied to what race your playing as.Maybe. :shrug:

I've never played Oblivion, but reading the thread title made me immediately think of the common greeting dwarves use in WoW.

I really miss the guards in Oblivion yelling 'Why won't you die!'

Bandits and Forsworn use this phrase.

Otherwise, I agree that there seems to be little in the way of social greetings in the game. "It's a fine day with you around," or, "You look like someone who can get things done. I like that," are okay once, but a simple "hello" would suffice. And those guards and their, "What is it?" which becomes, "What is it? Dragons?" after you kill a dragon.

Oh, there is one thing guards say that makes me chuckle: "If I find your hand in my pocket, I'm going to cut it off!" Cut what off? My hand? Your pocket?

Well, usually when I do it it's while in Ninja mode. I'll leave them with nothing but a sprig of Nightshade in their inventory (kind of my calling card,,, My own personal way of making sure his Soul goes to Sithis and no one else. ;)), but sometimes I'm in a hurry and just want to shut him up...

My trade mark is a single ebony arrow :devil:, but I like to stalk my prey both inside the city and out but that's the wolf side of me taking over :drag: I recently had an outbreak in Whindhelm, it's pretty much a ghost town now :evil:
