He's not saying "anyone who wants to play race X is indulging in Drizzt fanboy-wank and is badwrongfun," he's saying that "if a player wants to play a member of race X, I'd allow it, but the character would, like Drizzt, be the only one of his kind (e.g. the only heroic member of that race, or even the only one of his race known in the world period), with all the drawbacks that come along with that (e.g. people assuming he's a monster or villain, or reacting with fear and shock, or making it easier for enemies to track him because everybody remembers the dragonman)."Nothing about that implies a statement about people who like races he doesn't, blanket or otherwise, and in fact it seems like a perfectly valid compromise between a player who really wants to play race X and a DM who really doesn't want race X to be a major part of his campaign world.</blockquote>
