me and skullywag,were considering making a propaganda speaker mod.
given the theme of the game-we want them to be somewhat funny
we know that we have some witty people on this forum,
and were wondering if anyone had any quotes they would suggest and/or request
as scullywah put it

I like this, like propaganda speakers, only issue would be the sound, would need some apt one shots from the community, anyone feel like contributing some funny phrases about "life on the rimworld"

what kind of quotes exactly. What is the message you wish to spread? When I think of propaganda I think of the government bragging about how awesome it is and how totally crappy the other governments are. But there is no government on the game that is actually defined (as far as I know).

Maybe you mean funny advice like, "Remember, boomrats may be fun to shoot at, but keep your distance when doing so." and "Muffalos may be docile and slow moving, but steer clear when one is enraged."

More "general announcements" than propaganda but here you go

  • "Attention: All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy."
  • "Warning: Intruder alert. Alert canceled. Intruder alert. Alert canceled. Intruder alert. Intruder canceled. All intruders, please report to the detention center."
  • "Warning: Ask not what your country can do for you, for a toil today is a lesson tomorrow."
  • "Attention: There is no smoking in the labratory facilities."
  • "Attention: There is no business like show business. Don't throw stones in glass houses without proper protection. That is all."
  • "Warning: All systems functioning at normal parameters. Warning: All systems normal at functioning parameters. Parameters: all systems warning at normal functioning."
Props to anyone who knows where those were lifted from. You might also try looking at some real world propaganda from either World Wars or the Cold War for inspiration.

i was personally thinking of a bit of a mix
pretty much anything that would be funny to hear and a make slight sense

all the quotes so far seem good
although,I'm leaning towards some of the less serious ones
i won't have a god complex,everyone else has a mortal complex.
