[QUOTE="Kae'Yoss, post: 2224950, member: 4134"] As you so eloquently put it: I did not insult you... ...I ridiculed your methods for giving players a really hard time. You did not "just" propose a punishment. You proposed to totally screw over the cleric. Let me see: You said he should lose a level and be totally unable to get any additional experience points, just becaused he turned his back on his god after he felt the god did the same to him. And then you said the clergy should hunt him down for that. All that bearing in mind that we're talking about a neutral good Deity known for his benevolence. No really, do explain. I'm curious what you'd call "hostile" if not that. Let me guess: A hostile and vengeful deity (let's say, Cyric), would capture the renegade cleric and then force him to watch as he slowly tortures his family to death, followed by all his friends, then acquaintances, and everyone who has ever seen him or spoken to him, and then do the same about those who have ever seen or spoken to any of his family members or close friends. All in a horrible manner. Then, he would torture said cleric to death, resurrect him, and start over. Several times per day. For the rest of eternity and beyond. If all your ideas are along these lines (capital punishment for trivial transgressions), I'd be glad if you did exactly that. [/QUOTE]
