[QUOTE="Charlaquin, post: 9320985, member: 6779196"] So maybe take the hint and disengage from your argument with her. No, you were talking about escapism. You said people were blurring fantasy and reality too much in their escapism, and she responded that a lot of young people these days are nor playing for the purpose of [I]escaping[/I] the difficulties of reality, but rather to experiencing the fantasy of defeating them. Where you could have possibly gotten the idea that she found Tieflings not being persecuted in-game [I]offensive[/I] is a complete mystery to me. Wanting to play a game a certain way yourself does not in any way equate to being offended that other people play it a different way. No expectation of being a mind reader. Just reading and comprehending the words they actually wrote will suffice. Pick whatever wording you want, she was explaining her preference and the preferences of some other players, not expressing anger, frustration, offense, or anything else of the sort. I am also not mad at you, I’m just clarifying what was said, because you either misunderstood or were mischaracterizing others’ positions. [/QUOTE]
