Thanks for the troll and completely missing the point Slampow - you've done this in multiple threads now, so it's only right I talk down and belittle you. Can't handle it? Get a life.
I'll just put these two side by side for intelligent readers.

Not everyone is a murder hobo, and not everyone wants to play that way. And in a group where everyone has free will, all it takes is one guy to mess it up for everyone.

It's a universal theme, being good is hard, being a hero and defending the weak is REALLY hard. Being a villain? Taking a shortcut to get ahead in the short? Not so hard.
Maybe now you can go back to being toxic in the 'elfs in skirts' forum posts again.
