[QUOTE="Andvari, post: 8923849, member: 7036523"] Do they, actually? It doesn't seem to be something that manifests in practice. I've only seen this type of confusion in theoretical Internet discussions. In my experience, actual players are far more intelligent, reasonable and capable of introspection than some give them credit for. I've never had to explain something like this to anyone, nor have I needed to hide their real alignment out of fear of them being offended that I don't see their murdering psycho or thieving character as lawful good. They tend to either already know or quickly recognize it when it's brought up. At least the games I've run or played in, alignment changes only occur once it's past the point where debating it is reasonable or because the player adjusts the sheet on their own. (And no, I'm not a super scary person no one dares speak out against. I'm just a regular guy) [/QUOTE]
