Tarball's Dadabase

Wiping is like crushing cans all day - soda pressing.

Keep raid spirits high with random dad jokes, demotivational quotes, and memorable guild sayings when things go wrong. What started as a Weak Aura had to evolve into a full addon with Midnight.

Features

• Multiple Content Types: Dad jokes, demotivational sayings, and guild quotes
• Flexible Triggers: Automatic on raid/party wipes or personal deaths (works solo too)
• 1000+ Jokes & Quotes: Massive default library with hundreds of quality content
• Fully Customizable: Add your own content, delete what you don't like, or reset to defaults
• Smart Versioning: Your custom additions and deletions persist across updates
• Sound Effects: Optional audio notification (15 sounds to choose from)
• Statistics Tracking: See how many jokes each module has told
• Dynamic Prefixes: 108 randomized adjectives keep messages fresh
• Global Controls: Master enable/disable with visual feedback
• Manual Commands: Send jokes to guild chat or party/raid on demand
