That's an issue of plausibility on my end, but I would -never- call such a person a bad role-player. I do not think there is such a thing, just different priorities and concepts of what is fun. Those don't always mesh but certainly the people involved in this thread and plot are amazing role-players, Â if someone is to be called bad for what I said I shall take the label!
In terms of consequences numbers being bandied about are on th e hundreds of thousands. Just think about that for a little bit, and how justice and "justice" will react to an atrocity of that scale. Maybe I am being too black and white but this does not sound like something redeemable by trying to help here and there. I don't know that everyone with a collar would automatically be condemned for it but imagine how many people out there have had their lives ruined by the people who were collared - how careful will those seeking revenge be?
In terms of wanting to think about the consequences this is exactly the point I was trying to raise. I don't think most players with collared characters realized that they would be accomplices to an atrocity, Â and that they should really have a chance to consider their involvement if that event result is to hold.Â
Posting from my phone sorry if there are any typos!
The scale and level of the crime does not matter when Kiht and a few others took no part in committing it. Just because there is a horrible thing done on a horrible scale does not mean everyone near the thing is guilty because they have a collar on.
The collars are not the same as dumping poison into the water. Jin'li and anyone else who knew what he was doing, deserve to be punished. People who willingly fought for the Garleans deserve to be punished. Those who have the collar, but have -not- helped Jin'li in any way are not deserving of death just because there was an atrocity. If anything, those in Kiht's position are victims until they do something to actually aid Jin'li.
