 * Is the ingame name actually the full "Pygmy Hippopotamus" or is it shortened somehow? --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 07:36, 26 September 2006 (CDT)
 * Ingame name is Pygmy Hippopotamus &mdash; Skuld 09:43, 26 September 2006 (CDT)

Redirects
Would it be possible to link any searches for the term hippo or pygmy hippo to this page?


 * We might want to wait with that until the retail version is out. The fact that the pet is called "pygmy" implies to me that there may be other types of hippos, probably full size. If that's the case we might need a disambig page. --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 07:49, 26 September 2006 (CDT)

Lol... is "Hippopotamus" a little much to type out every time you wanna see this page? Anyway, I think it's called pygmy because it's a pet. What other pets (aside from hearty bears) have been bigger than the player character, as hippos easily are? -Auron  03:50, 29 September 2006 (CDT)


 * Well, I changed my mind. Corecting the redirect in case there is an other type of hippo is a quick thing. Doesn't hurt for now. --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 04:19, 29 September 2006 (CDT)

To respond to Auron, Striders. My strider dwarfs my mesmer, which is of medium height if I recall. =P

It's called a Pygmy Hippopatamus because it's a Pygmy Hippopatamus. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pygmy_Hippo Arshay Duskbrow 23:20, 23 October 2006 (CDT)

"rise above the waist of a player character"
I think that expression is really inappropiate... players can choose their own height, not to mention the difference between profession's size. And, other than that, I think that a lvl 20 hippo would easily outgrow a minimal size monk for example. --Adul 12:19, 27 October 2006 (CDT)

Location change?
Now that the retail version is out, several people I've talked to have not been able to find the hippo in the bog. I searched through the entire thing twice and found only crocs and warthogs. Has anyone found a hippo in the final version? Perceptes 14:14, 28 October 2006 (CDT)
