mr. destan
you know i like you. ive been addicted to your story hour since it was first recommended to me. so please dont take this the wrong way, but: you're an idiot.
or at least you did an idiotic thing. im referring to your post about cross gender pc's. what on earth did you think would happen after you posted that? some of the people on these boards live for those types of posts. it makes their year. you may have been just curious, and gaming may be just a game to you, but those guys eat and breathe this stuff. i think you brought a kukri to a falchion fight.
you seem like a "normal" guy who just had a preference for same-sex pc's in your setting. fine. but for some people, their characters ARE their lives. those guys tearing their hair out on that other thread may be married (or at least say they are), may have other interests, may have this and that...but when it comes down to it, they've got their characters and their gaming. and woe to anyone who even suggests their way isn't the proper way. throw in some superiority complexes and gender confusion, and youve got T R O U B L E.
im supposed to be the one with the wisdom penalty - not you. you brought that on yourself.
im sorry for resurrecting the (blown out of proportion) topic here, but i was hoping some good might come of it...perhaps that firestorm of whining over there shocked you back out of your shell? enough to post an update?
wishful thinking?
