[QUOTE="renau1g, post: 4946192, member: 54810"] Dude...seriously I was going to offer you a place in one of my games when I saw you didn't make the cut in order to see if you liked PbP, but most assuredly one who goes about attacking others personally is definitely not one that I will allow into my games. As for race/class/mc selection, I chose mine based on an RP scenario, OMG I followed the fluff from the PHB2 that mentions how/why Devas are re-created. They are a relatively new race with a fairly narrow background, unlike the very established races (human, elf, etc.). Would you call it unoriginal if a dwarf came from the *gasp* mountains, or an elf from the forest?. I've played 3 wizards in 4e so far, 2 were staff wizards the other one was a wand wizard, so I thought I'd try an orb wizard. I understand that I'm the lightning rod for your displeasure (besides Insight) as I was the controller selected and I do have a thick skin, especially when it comes to anonymous posters on the interweb, but at the same time I also have a character flaw (as you called it) where I don't like it when people try to bully/belittle others in such a childish way, nor will I allow myself to be so obviously attacked. If you have a specific critique of a players BG/fluff then take it up directly with them, this on the other hand is the sour grapes, and if you aren't happy with Insight's selection process then take it up directly with him, rather than dropping these bombs and generally be a nuisance to a fairly decent PbP community. I've gamed with just about every other applicant and can say that they are all excellent RP'ers and players, so don't disparage others because you weren't chosen. I'd be more than happy to continue discussions off-line so we don't further clog up this thread. You can send me a PM and I'll reply, as long as the tone is civil. [/QUOTE]
