When I was a kid I was mortified by the idea. Then I grew up and realised it didn't really matter. Wouldn't do it on purpose; nudist colonies are usually creepy haunts. If confronted with nudity by others? I go to life drawing occasionally, and that's fine. I guess, then, nothing innately...

its a self-evident truth.

Sounds mind-numbingly ridiculous... yet I'm tempted to go searching for them! You know, just to evaluate for myself how mind-numbingly ridiculous it could be.

Especially when considered in light of the original arguments

Page upon page of absolutely nothing. I'm so impressed.

Actually, maybe this kind of thing isn't such a bad idea. If the only thing they get from you bothering to put out a questionnaire is that you have an objective when you put questions or ssituations to them, they may take that on board and begin to embrace it? Its hard for me to offer questions...

Yeah that's what I was interested in too. Or further, why off-ramps are necessarily a good thing. I either didn't see it qualified, didn't understand it or wasn't convinced :)

Absolutely. I'd go further and say that the problem isn't just differing expectations, but the dialogue that occurs when anyone tries to enforce this idea that their expectations are the only right way, and implying (or outright arguing) that others are wrong, or are not endorsed by the system...

Yep; they are supposed to. That those choices, all of them, would be used in the context of roleplaying, was a core assumption with all the options. Its pretty humorous that the roleplaying requirements are sometimes seen as the chink in the anti-charop armour; "speak language, druidic? man...

I'm not sure whether the following traits fit into your working definition of the stereotype, but I've frequently read WOTC published materials which offer that many gamers have a natural shyness and confidence issues which they might need to overcome for more successful gaming, pointing out...

Touche

What I can't stand is those upstart trans-alpine bumpkins with their pronunciation of suffixal "-us" as "-ix". By Jupiter it sounds so ridiculous I tell ya it drives me mad as Vulcan at a Pompeiian blasphemy! Why I even heard the britons have done away with suffixes altogether! Ludicrous!!! :D

Ahhh the intricacies of ettiquette in the age of aquarius :)

Also, it reminded me of this: http://www.smbc-comics.com/?id=2182 I've been caught out before. On my way home from uni at night, walking behind some girl. Do I walk faster? Or slower?? Man, I'm right behind her. If I walk slower, it'll appear I'm stalking her. OK. Faster it is... Oh no! She's...

Absolutely. The smiley face is to aknowledge the absurdity of it. Overanalysis can be funny.

But if you slow down while walking behind a woman at night, will it seem like you're stalking her? :D

Kinda. You are using my reasoning in regards to an extreme situation. That's the problem. My reasoning covers a lot more ground than your extreme example represents. If you can aknowledge that, it will help you to understand my point. I'm not trying to be condescending, but if you are debating...
