The dwarfy thing to do would be to pull the levers one by one and note what they do.  Privately, of course; better to let subsequent overseers learn for themselves.

Bud, DF's code is available as plain text.  You can build mods in Notepad.  If you don't like how werebeasts work, you can just...change them.

But also, I feel like the nature of DF is such that both opinions can coexist: werebeasts are horribly unfair and broken, and if you can't figure out how to work around them, you deserve all the frustration you get.

Uhmm... you do realize that only the person who started the thread can add a poll to it.  You’ll have to contact them somehow (and hope that they are still active on the forums) and get them to put the poll up.
But...I am the person who started the thread!  Over two years ago, with my humble suggestion for a "Kick Shin" attack.

And your nomination will be taken into consideration.  Thanks!

OKAY SO.  In celebration of 200 pages of Terrible Suggestions©, and following from suggestions made in a few recent posts, I'm going to add a poll to determine the #1 best bad suggestion thus far!

I'll be combing the past pages for ideas, but if you have a particular suggestion you think deserves a spot, either yours or someone else's, feel free to offer it up, and I'll consider those first; I'm hoping for a total of 10 options.  Also, in the interest of fairness, I won't be including any of my suggestions, nor will I be voting in the poll.

I'm hoping to put this up within the next week, so get your nominations in, and thanks again for keeping this thread going so long!

Introduce nekomancers, unholy magic-users who command vast legions of cats that are opposed to life.

In order to be more realistic the cooks can sometimes add feces to the roasts when they're angry.
Go full "The Jungle" and have cooks use everything from vermin to sawdust to old, tattered clothes as filler in meals.

They would steal a wagon.
They would steal a baby.
They would kill a militiadwarf, and steal his helmet.
They would go to the toilet in his helmet, then send it to his grieving widow, and then steal it again!

Giant keas steal anything. ANYTHING.

This means workshops, buildings, animals and even dwarves.

If an animal/dwarf is stolen, it brings up the message “(creature) was whisked away by a giant kea!”

They can also steal happiness, as well as the entirety of goblin xmas.
They can also steal the entire fort.
They can dig into the raws and steal whole lines of code.

Some dwarves can one-punch anything.
All goblins can one-punch anything.

Looks like people found my comment and I have an idea of how to make it better, lets enhance it by allowing every stripper represent a different fetish, also it be in HYPER REALISTIC 3D AND BE VR COMPATIBLE!

The profits of DF fund the digging of a deep hole in the ground, hidden under a circus tent.
If there aren't clowns in the underworld, we'll put them there!
Sounds like it's time to crack open the Kola super-deep borehole.

Give dwarves human rights.

Send players straight to prison.
Play Dwarf Fortress and go directly to jail Hell.

Earworm men, imagine a bunch of those showing up and trying to get into your dwarves heads and eat their brains.....       Oh wait dwarves don't have brains so I guess the earworm men would just starve.
Earworm Men show up in your fort and replace the calm, sedate background music with upbeat, catchy-yet-annoying bubblegum pop guaranteed to get stuck in your head.  Even if you drive them out, their tunes will soon be the only ones your in-house musicians want to perform.

Any meat, including hams, can be steamed.
It sometimes causes aurora borealises.
"Urist, the fortress is on fire!"
"No Mother, it's just the northern lights!"
"HALP! HAAALP!"
