[QUOTE="Neonchameleon, post: 8154839, member: 87792"] The default RPG is D&D. It's far from all I play or run - but it is the default and overwhelmingly more popular than anything else. Quite the reverse. It's your limited experience that is illustrating that you do not know how dominant D&D is over the RPG marketplace - and that it is the default. There are many games I prefer to it - but that doesn't mean I'm going to try and defy reality and claim it's not the default. (And the last game that wasn't a flavour of D&D to challenge it was back in the 90s and didn't really have elves). If you consider race unimportant then why are you bothering to restrict them? After all it's unimportant which just makes this a pettier move. Meanwhile certain aspects of characters are important to players because it ties in with them. If it's not important to me and is important to them then I'd consider it a jerk move to ban. [/QUOTE]
