[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 8930264, member: 2067"] People don't have to play D&D and can not do it for literally any reason, up to and including "old artwork gives me weird vibes." Not playing D&D doesn't mean that one's reason for not doing so is manufactured, insincere, or otherwise failing to pass some purity test for being a "good enough" reason to do it. D&D is not entitled to be played. Maybe if they think they'd like the hobby, they'd be happier with some indie game, or Pathfinder, or something else without the history.

The difference for me personally is that maybe I'd like to find a game to play with the first person, and I do not personally care what the second person does with his life unless it involves a deep personal change and a sincere contrition. But both of them would be bad fits for my D&D game, because D&D would make both of them uncomfortable (for entirely different reasons). [/QUOTE]
