Message: <blockquote data-quote="Cheiromancer" data-source="post: 302677" data-attributes="member: 141">Here are three more:CHAOTIC GOOD 1. Do what you will, if it harms none. 2. Do not indulge in stereotyping; judge individuals as individuals. Many a scoundrel wears a crown. 3. Force may be justified to prevent or remedy injustice. The existence of injustice is authorization enough for you to act. 4. Make personal commitments and follow them. Whether anyone knows about them or appreciates them is irrelevant. 5. You are responsible for your own decisions. If you are convinced that a group decision is wrong, refuse to go along with it. 6. Others are responsible for their decisions. If they make bad ones, the consequences are on their own heads. 7. Do not swear oaths. “Yes” or “No” is sufficient to indicate your agreement. 8. Listen to the viewpoints of others. No-one sees the world in quite the same way, and you may find fresh insights even from someone you thought you knew well. 9. When faced with a threat, it is usually best to leave peacefully or negotiate; but do not hesitate to fight if that is appropriate. 10. Always give an enemy a chance to prove himself a friend; also give a friend the freedom to move on. CHAOTIC NEUTRAL 1. Embrace your freedom. You are not bound by external laws or forces, nor are you compelled to follow your instinctive impulses. Neither does your past experience condition you; you have complete freedom of choice in any given situation. 2. Don’t be afraid to accept commitments for as long as is necessary. If you or the situation changes, rethink the commitment, and move on when it seems appropriate. 3. Make plans carefully. Don’t consider only the likely outcomes; consider what you would do if something improbable happened. And make sure that your plans have lots of flexibility, so you can change them on the fly. 4. Seek novelty. New experiences, new knowledge, new skills, new friends; the world is full of wonderful things to discover. Don’t be afraid to take chances or make mistakes. 5. Don’t close your mind to new things; don’t knock it until you try it, and try anything once. 6. Encourage others to grow into unique, free individuals. Don’t constrain them with your expectations. Appreciate their quirks and foibles; even unpleasant or ugly things can have their own weird charm. 7. Consider enlivening a situation by inserting an element of randomness. To do this you might have to do something “illegal” or “socially unacceptable,” but it could be fun anyway. 8. A rolling stone gathers no moss. To live is to change a little every day. 9. Don’t judge others. Everyone is right according to their own perspective, and who are you to say they are wrong? 10. There is no good reason for a creature’s freedom to be limited. Liberate the captive and set prisoners free if you have the chance to do so without undue risk to yourself. TRUE NEUTRAL 1. Don’t do to others what you would not want them to do to you. 2. Enjoy life in moderation, but do not get too attached to what you love. Life is too uncertain to risk strong attachments. 3. Tradition is not always right, but should be departed from only with caution and in times of great need. Keep an open mind about change, but not so open that your brains fall out. 4. Be generous when times are good; you’ll appreciate the generosity of others when times are bad. Go into debt reluctantly, and pay your debts as soon as you can. Avoid having others obligated to you. Be self-reliant, and encourage self-reliance in others. 5. Repay kindness with kindness. Overlook the occasional fault in others, but don’t let yourself get stepped on. Defend yourself if attacked, and insist that criminals be punished in proportion to their crimes. 6. Look out primarily for your family, friends and community. If it costs relatively little to help a stranger in need, do so, but don’t cause hardship for you and yours. It rarely hurts to smile and say hello. 7. The community exists so that the individual can flourish. Individuals have an obligation to support and protect their community; this may involve the sacrifice of certain rights and freedoms. The community has a corresponding obligation to let individuals exercise their own rights and freedoms within reasonable limits. 8. The exercise of an individual’s rights and freedoms are limited to the extent that they do not infringe on the rights and freedoms of others. They are also limited by the customs and norms of the local community. 9. Everything has a place and a time. Know your place, and be prudent about when and if to act. When in doubt, it is usually better not to get involved. 10. Better the devil you know than the devil you don’t. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Don’t rock the boat. Unless you have a very good reason, don’t meddle in the affairs of those who are mightier than you. Don’t try to change the world; tend to your own affairs and the world will unfold as it should.</blockquote>
