missing message on statue
On the kobold holding baby human statue, if you pray it just tells you that you prayed to your god, and nothing else. I think something else is supposed to happen?

*EDIT another missing message. "When speed must be exceeded." statue, when kicked printed no message.

*EDIT another one, "The way home", no message when kick.

*EDIT another one, "humble yourself before the lord of the mountain lake", I prayed and no message was shown.

Huh? Statues have different effects depending on what you do to them, and some of them seem to (intentionally) have no effect at all regardless of step/pray/kick. Just because you prayed and nothing happened doesn't necessarily mean it's bugged.

I didn't say nothing happened, I said no message was printed.

Like this:
"You pray to X."

That's it. Normally I'd get:
"You pray to X. Your prayer remains unheard."

It's like it printed an empty string where it should have been describing something.

Hmm, maybe it was hidden in the message buffer and it's actually just another instance of the bug where messages get cropped...

Maybe no message indicates that something actually happened? According to the talk section of the statue page on the wiki the effect can be as obscure as changing your character's hair color.

I vaguely remember having no messages when kicking statues too, by the way.

This is very interesting. It really looks like something has happened, but no one knows what exactly!...

Not all statues are fully implemented yet. If you receive no message then you've probably encountered one of them.

Wonder if I dodged a bullet because of that fact. :)
