I think that threads have topic purposes they're meant to be kept to. For that, I believe N'oh was just trying to state he didn't want the thread to go off too far on that discussion, as it would be something for a different thread. People are allowed to request threads are kept to their initial purpose.Â

No one has censured anyone for any reason. Â I do not understand why this keeps coming up.
Not everyone is going to agree with everything you do, not here and not in real life. Â So do what you want. Â No one is saying that you can't play whatever you want. Â No one has ever said that.
Now, they've said, "I don't acknowledge that in my RP." Â And they've said, "This isn't backed up by the lore we have in the game." Â But no one has ever, ever - not even one damn time - said, "You can't play that because I say so."
Ever. Â Not ever.
No one is censuring anyone. Â Just because they don't agree with something you're doing does not mean they are censuring you. Â It means they don't agree with you. Â Which is something adults do all the time - not agree with each other. Â Doesn't mean anyone is being mean to anyone else. Â Doesn't mean that you can't do what you want. Â It means someone disagrees with you. Â That's it. Â That's all. Â That's literally all it is.
Well, that was quite the overreaction to a rather unimportant statement. Also, you don't really know the experiences of everyone so to say no one has ever said a thing is only limited to you experience. Maybe you have not experienced it, but some of us have.
Similar to my statement above, whereas I understand the need to feel one's voice get out there on both sides of this spectrum, I think the what has, and what hasn't, been experienced by various players isn't something that should be addressed in this particular thread. I've seen these particular topics go south very quickly and I would like to see this thread stay on a positive track of debate. x:

Thank you Sounsyy for the lore quotes!
