But just by reading some of these posts you can tell that they really, really want to.
I'm not really getting that vibe from any of the posts within this thread. It's simply a debate - some people agree, others disagree. At the end of the day, though...if multiple role-players who are unaffiliated with each other are stating that a character doesn't really fit the setting/feels too contrived then there's a pretty high chance that they're correct. Especially if they back it up with relevant sources.
That doesn't mean people have to change their character concept. Not at all - but they should at least have the stones to acknowledge that they don't really have anybody but themselves to blame if others do not wish to interact with them.
