[QUOTE="MoonSong, post: 6765917, member: 6689464"] Wow, between the references to RW religions and the discussion over canon I suddenly feel like I stumbled into a Christian forum. Maybe we all should tone down that part, the wall is flamebaitty enough by itself. After all one's reaction to the Wall of the faithless has nothing to do with one's real life religion/lack of religion -I consider myself religious and I feel repulsed by the idea, it feels wrong-. The officialness -yes in this case I feel better using official instead of canon- of certain events and plots, and even the right interpretation of these are more or less important depending on how do you play. Of course you care a lot if your only way to play is through AL -but that doesn't make you less of a gamer-, of course you can get away with deciding to ignore official lore and reinterpret everything if you have a steady longterm group with rotating DMs. Though in this case it is good to be aware of your privilege, and not just shun players who ask for changes in official lore and official options. It is perfectly fine to express dissatisfaction with an official option, and desire for that to change. It doesn't really take away from people with steady groups, and it only bothers people who are deadset on having the Wall of the Faithless as an official part of the Realms and can only have fun if it exists on all tables. It would be interesting to know how popular the thing really is. [/QUOTE]
