Yes, you are right, so I'll step off that merry-go-round now.
I fully acknowledge there are different types of roleplaying. What drives me crazy is the attitude of some people that their version of it is the highest or best form. Sometimes this is expressed as a claim that other forms are not actually roleplaying. But even when there's grudging acknowledgement that "playing the role of a wizard" (for example) is technically roleplaying, there's still an attempt to create a hierarchy. (E.g., the number of dimensions, or "Roleplaying vs. roleplaying" or whatever.). Why? Why the insistence that some forms are harder/better/more mature/etc.? Why is it so important that one form be acknowledged as superior? Why so much smug?
I shouldn't care what other people think, but I do like engaging in discussion about a hobby I love, and that is less rewarding when a subset of the community insists on looking down its collective nose.
