People are free to play whatever they want though? If people ask for advice in a thread, why wouldn't people who know the lore really well answer?
I certainly appreciate when people come in and ask for how to be lore appropriate and SEE that people answer honestly rather than "Play it! Who cares about lore! Don't listen to those fuddy duddies." I also appreciate people listening to others advice and not getting mad when it's not what they hoped (The Blue Mage thread is wonderful for this, I threw out a bunch of constructive criticism and she worked around what she felt were valid concerns to help make the idea much more future lore friendly - which was my greatest concern. She didn't just go "I have to cow-tow to you people!" just because I didn't agree.)
If getting people think getting jumped on is coming int a thread and explaining why your character concept may not work in lore, then those people are awfully sensitive.
I didn't see any hostility. I saw people coming in, explaining lore and then explaining why it may not work.
I'm unsure why people think disagreeing is automatically hostile.
