[QUOTE="Helldritch, post: 8047645, member: 6855114"] Part of it yes. Yet IF you have the courage to read about medieval and dark age society around the world, you will see that we have evolve. Better know where you're from to know where you are and where you are going. Wow... Self blindingness from your part. Bad accusations. It never dawned on you that by showing what was; we can see and avoid doing it? By showing that modern mentality evolved from these ideas we can avoid doing it ourselves. Open your mind and you'll see. More over. By saying that I am promoting these you are entirely wrong. Do not apply what goes on in an RP game to the real world. What you are saying is diffamatory. I do not encourage this in the real world, far from it. A game is a game. And these views are on one campaign type. I maybe more simulationnist than you, but that does not make me the monster you are trying to put me in. You seem to have a problem in differiencing role playing and dark age simulations with reality. These things did happen, again, read a bit about the crusade. Some crusaders were killed for not doing what they were ordered. Some were banished and branded as cowards. Just like you did in the post you so much love to refer to. Need I remind you again that it was one world, one campaign? And this campaign (done by two different group) was done with adults that perfectly knew and choose to do it? You keep ignoring the fact that in a world like Eberron you would have been praised. You are the one that seems unable to take a step back and analyse. You seem unable or unwilling (maybe both?) to put yourself in the mindset of darkage mentality. In most of my campaigns, you would see that the knight in shining armor and modern faerie tales are the thing. But you keep hanging on on this one post as if I was a one post, one opinion person. Did you know that archer were put in the back of the infantry for two reasons? One was tactical, the second? Archers were under order to shoot at their infantry men if they would try to leave the front line without the sound of retreat. The same was done with last ranks of musket lines. Again you are confusing role play and reality. If for you a game promotes such a thing, you have a problem. Context matters and you never ask questions but only makes accusations. And these accusations have repercussions in the real world. I urge you to reconsider what you are saying and think carefuly. What is in a game, is a game. I play with adult that can separate fiction from reality. Can you? [/QUOTE]
