    Because it's a funny bug, the devs decided to leave it in.

    Because one line of code apparently takes too long :(
    Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

    Something like the "crooked crabs" in Auridon? It should be against the Geneva Convention to allow crooked crabs in any game.

    I love seeing people running around on their mounts. I laugh every time it happens to me. Don't like it? Dismount and get back on, usually fixes it. ZOS please don't fix it.

    It's an issue when the mount and the character are not synced properly. Usually just waiting a sec or two without moving fixes it as it allows them to "catch up" to each other. Same with the bug where you are mounted and the legs just wiggle around in a weird twisted way. Jumping fixes this.

    That is the best bug in the game. Period. I smile every time it happens, either to me or to a random player running by.

    I hope they never fix it. If they do, I will be very sad.

    I just had it happen to me over the weekend while I was talking to the girlfriend. I'm still so amused by it I had to interrupt her to show it to her even though she couldn't care less. At least she got a little chuckle out of it.

    Nope sorry, the best bug is the one where you are scooting around half in the ground like you are riding a mount.

    You can also just Jump when on the mount, that usually gets you to sit down.

    I personally have this every once in a while, like once every week or two. I don't mind it all that much, and when I do, I just Jump.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    The funny thing about your statement is that this bug wasn't in the game until at least a year after release. In other words, this isn't something they haven't gotten around to fixing. This is something they broke.

    I have a hard time getting too worked up over it, though.

    Let there be other "comic bugs" in the game. For example, in Mike's dialogues, or in the behavior of NPC. All the time the same, it's boring.

    Crabs are bad enough...but if you catch "crooked crabs", your sex life is OVER. :/
