[QUOTE="Mouseferatu, post: 3759262, member: 1288"] Okay, so what I'm getting here is that the situation is not what I thought it was. *What I thought: People didn't think of prior golems, or even sentient constructs, as robots, but some people [i]did[/i] think of warforged as robots. *What appears to actually be the case: Most of the people who view warforged as robots [i]did[/i] think of prior sentient constructs as, if not robots, at least robot-like, but they were never a big enough issue for the topic to come up. (Or, they never thought of the prior examples as robots purely because they never paid them much heed, and [i]would[/i] have thought of them that way had the subject ever arisen.) Does that seem accurate? Am I reading you folks correctly? It's interesting, if so, and I'm wondering why I didn't consider the possibility... (Not that I was losing any sleep over it, regardless. ;) But I've definitely been curious.) [/QUOTE]
