I've had my share of bannings and warnings here because I thought my post was obviously a joke and I didn't use those cool smiley faces. <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/laugh.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" /> I've never had this problem on other forums when posting via computers for the past 15 years; most people seem to get a joke when they read it...it seems to be limited to RPG forums only.For some reason a lot of RPG gamers take everything seriously & way too literally. When making a poll thread, you need at least 25 poll choices or else people are going to criticize you for not having the exact poll choice to fit their need. We don't understand "generalization". So it is impossible to simply pick 1 out of 3 choices because we are way too complex to be simplified like that. That leads us to feeling the need to explain in great detail why we couldn't pick an option or why we picked an option but it isn't the correct option.And finally, we like to argue...a lot. We can agree with you 100% but we'll play devils advocate because Asmodeus is cool as hell. So for example, I might know that I'm a serious gamer, but I'll claim to be a casual gamer just to get you to point out how I'm not. But then I'll argue with you about it like any serious gamer would. But I'll stick to my guns and claim to be a casual gamer until we've reached the point where one of us finishes the debate by saying, "lets agree to disagree".This is why I don't post polls....it's way too complicated. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /></blockquote>
