If it was a bit longer, and actually explained/supported that claim, I probably would have taken it better. And, if you had quoted the OP, maybe that would have been a bit clearer that you were disagreeing with the whole premise of the thread, not just that specific post. I can see how it came across as condescending. To be honest, I could have held back a bit more of it than I did. However, I don't know what the "among other distasteful behaviors" means. Care to clarify? I'm sorry if it came across as condescending. I'm just low on energy and worn out by this frustrating misconstruction. However, my post was honest. That's how I understand your posting. If that's not what you intended, maybe it would help to clarify. I do hope that you could see how I reached my conclusion on your post, though. That doesn't do it for me. If some races are made alien in mindset, and the rest are just humans, that's not a compromise I can get behind. There are some races that I'm already interested in, but would far prefer and would probably play if they were more in-depth on how their racial mechanics influence their cultures. I already like Lizardfolk, Tortles, Owlfolk, and quite a few other races that don't have this tool applied to them. I just would way rather play them/use them in my games if their racial mechanics impacted them in a similar way to described above. My absolute is on the approach; how racial cultures should be designed from the get-go. Not on how they should/have to be played at different tables, or incorporated in different worlds. Is that clear? Is it clear how I'm not trying to "badwrongfun" anyone, or force them to play my way or use lore that I find interesting? Is it clear how I'm not saying that my preference is the One True Way, like you thought I was saying? Are we done with this miscommunication? Because I don't appreciate being painted as a "Fun Supremacist" that wants it "my way or no way" anymore than you enjoy being misunderstood the way that I misunderstood your posts. I apologize if I misconstrued or misunderstood your posts, but you did so with my posts, too. We were just talking past each other.</blockquote>
