Ork or Orc?????

[latenightapplepie]

Orc. Looks nicer.

 

[Folio]

Warhammer Fantasy has Orc's... who are ALSO FUR FIGHTIN' and WINNIN' and go WAAAAGH.

Ork, LOTR is overrated.

Well he developed and popularized the term from Old English terminology. If he hadn't written his books we would have never even known what an orc was.

Damn, I gotta stop falling for trolls...

Anyway

OT: It is Orc, the word was created from and Old English word and popularized by Tolkien. It is even "Orc" in Beowulf. Orc is an english word, so even if you spell it/pronounce it differently in your country it is still originally "Orc".

So because my opinion isnt the same as yours im a troll? Idiot.

No, because there is absolutely no reason to just throw in the fact that you feel "LotR is overrated", you could have expressed your opinion fine without that statement, which you obviously put in so you would get quoted and have something to do for 5 minutes.

Also, I continue to fall for your trickery because you incited my response by calling me an "idiot" which is also unnecessary to express your opinion.

Seems like trolling to me. Please resist the urge to quote me and respond, I am addicted to responding to trolls and you are definitely an enabler...so do me a favor and help me stop the addictive cycle.

OT: I will say it again, it is Orc.

I see what you're doing here, nice try troll. All you are doing is finding a short comment wich doesnt take forever to read that states my opinion on the matter and then you start to trying make me look like a troll. As there is no reason for me expressing my opinion on the matter, theres no need for your opinion or your trolling. Go back to your cave.

 

[Direwolf750]

should've been a poll, and versus threads are frowned upon. Still gotta say orc

 

[Burningsok]

I've never seen it spelled with a k. So yes I spell it with a c.

 

[meglathon]

Boold and Thunder , my life FOR THE HORDE

no, your not a troll. It's not like your acting like a snotty 12 year old. However, I would like to know why you think LOTR is overrated.

Ork is how orcs spell it actually, orc is the 'common' spelling. Warhammer uses Ork, because Orks there just are much more vocal about their rights, majority of fantasy uses Orc, because in majority of fantasy orcs are just canon fodder *nods*

Itz bin all dem politikz dey messin' with dem orkses but wez 'nowz dat orkses are neva' beaten in battle.

Have you ever read a book called "Grunts"? It's a witty look at Orcs that are basically the cannon fodder of the "Forces of Dark" with a medieval setting. They raid a dragon's cache, hearing about these "Ultimate" weapons that can be found, and they find helicopters, shotguns, automatic rifles, all kinds of stuff. It's interesting

 

[Slaanax]

ORK! GREEN IS BEST!

 

[Echo136]

Orc, being a Lord of the Rings fan.

Why didnt you ask that in the first place? Ive read the books'n'all and found them to be rather boring, its not that I didnt get them. But they're just a mishmash of lore and stuff he's stolen/been inspired by and the put together. Im not going to get into details as that'll take too much time and effort for a small forum arguement. Thats just what I think about his books.

Dude, I am just messing around, you need to stop taking yourself so seriously.

If it makes you feel better...you win!

But nice job trying to project your trolling on to me to make it seem like this was a complex trolling scheme (the imagery of the cave was a nice touch).

Chill bro, life is going to pass you by. Much love

OT: I never played Warhammer 40k so I never heard of Ork until now.

EDIT: Also, please for the sake of this website be the bigger man and do no respond to this. It is over, this is getting way too obscure.

 

[Asdalan08]

Quite obviously It's spell SupercalifrajalisticOrcialadocious.

Now I know what your thinking... but even though the sound of it is something quite attrocious. But If you say it loud enough you'll always sound proc-
Ok, I'll stop...

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

Orc. Lord of the Rings all the way.

[sub][sub][sub]This is sort of a vs thread...[/sub][/sub][/sub]

 

[Buizel91]

Sounds like the begining of a song... replace "or" with "to"

Ork to Ork...

Axe to Axe

Dakka Dakka to Dakka Dakka...

Yeh i know...terrible...

And i always Say Ork...have done since i first heard of them.

 

[icyneesan]

I didn't know there was a difference, I thought it was just one of those stupid things the English Language has developed over the years

That being said I use 'orc' as I was first introduced to them in Warcraft (NOT WORLD OF).

 

[sanguinator]

technically it would be orc for traditional orcs. ork is actually something quite different going as far as not really being remotely related to fantasy orks. 40k orcs are orks, all other orcs are orcs.

 

[Senrab]

Neither is wrong, it depends on the setting.

 

[Kristian1683]

They're fictional so I suppose it doesn't matter, depends on what fantasy thing you're talking about I guess.
