It wasn't misconstrued. How would you learn what you need to know about Adam's knowledge of Philip's personality with such an inflamatory out of character remark? The full quote read: 'is this how you intend to play this character? ok, you got lucky this time, but I don't think the way you played Philip was necessary'. If this was a case of misunderstanding, I would suggest more careful wording in future. Perhaps, if you make it clear you're trying to discern what Adam would and wouldn't know about another player's investigator, or ask the question without tagging on feedback that might be misconstrued. The bottom line is that all players, irrespective of who they are or the character they play, have the right to portray their investigator without fear of disparagement from other players or the Keeper concerning that portrayal.In my own mind, a PC is a solid, playable PC once he moves off the drawing board and into the game. In the OOC recruitment thread, feedback is welcome I think, and both you and Kook and to a lesser extent Arabella presented their PC ideas in public and welcomed open criticism in order to improve the character. But once the character is in-game, criticism is inappropriate and the player has complete dominion over what his or her PC does. That's just the way it is in my games.I just wanted to clarify this and I look forward to seeing you back in the game.</blockquote>
