[QUOTE="android, post: 2127090, member: 1136"] Well of course you're not going to stop them. Are you implying that you could go on some rampage against dressing up in D&D if you wanted to? But you don't want to so instead you'll just limit your derision to saying that the people who dress up just do a disservice to you and the people you don't dress up? Of course not! Your statement that you won't stop them is just empty; it means nothing. It's just lip service to make people think that you're more understanding than you are. Despite your attempts to paint me as someone who does not understand what you wrote, you have shown yourself to not understand your own opinion as is illustrated here: Your main purpose in playing D&D is not to have fun? What you say above is that it is instead to improve the public opinion of D&D and its players. Well, that's very noble of you, I guess, but my point still stands. Play D&D, dress up, don't dress up, whatever, but do it because you want to, and leave the opinion of people you don't know and don't care about out of it if they interfere with what you want to do. And, leave other people who don't fit your ideals out of it as well. No one needs to be disparaged by you because they don't conform. And yes, I of course realize that I am one of the people you don't know and don't care about so why am I even talking about this? As you have your people looking in on you and passing judgement which apparently guides your behavior quite a bit, you are playing that role for me. The difference is, I'm not conforming to your opinions for the sake of giving D&D a good name--or whatever else--like you do to everyone else's. [/QUOTE]
