Hmm, to address some comments in brief;
My hero almost never won xD. That was part of the problem I guess. No one ever seems to want to concede in combat RP :p
Someone used the example of a hero coming across a band that was raping and pillaging a village, and allowing them to live in order to face justice. My hero actual was not lawful good, and probably would have shot down those a-holes right where they stood. Vanquishing quote/unquote 'evil' was very much in her moral dna.
My hero was pushed to question her beliefs often. She had a lack of self-confidence, but simply could not stand to see people suffer, and sought to right wrongs wherever they occurred. She never struck me as one-dimensional.
Someone mentioned false advertising in an FC/guild as being the problem. Sometimes this is the case! Sometimes, however, the advertising is correct, but the people joining it aren't paying attention.
And finally, I'd like to reiterate that I am extremely happy where I am, both in the FC I've ended up in, and with the larger community as a whole. This post was merely meant to elicit the viewpoints of my peers on pratfalls I had experienced on a specific type of character I like to play. My other characters are flourishing, thanks to my lovely FC, and some great friends I've made along the way.
Thank you all for you insights andcontributions. You've been a big help!
