Ok, this thread is getting so idiotic now that I'm not going to bother to read anything at this tangential depth. Good think I use a newsreader so that I can easily skip back out to the higher-level posts and drop the drivel. (Aside: "What drivel?" you ask? You did the "the bottom line is..." thing. Of course everything is so simple. As simple as throwing up a web forum for D. Simple. Now what to do with all the time left over. Such a dilemma.) > Wars, Famine? They all basically boil down to one thing: > Two people, (or representatives of two people) disagree. > > But both are so absolutely certain that they are correct, they do not > even attempt to look at the other side of the coin. > In fact, they will blatantly refuse to even acknowledge the fact that > there is a possibility that they could be wrong. That is naive. There is always 101 "unseen" reasons for a stance. What's right or wrong takes a backseat to personal consequences, political and financial and power motives... Major power struggles are not about what a casual observer can ascertain with a quick look from a distance. The players know very well what the situation is at some level of depth beyond what appears on the surface. The goal is to dig down deeper and try to find things to give more advantage to better "guarantee" a good outcome for a player. Most people will never grow up, I have said. They just keep on "signing their lives and rights away" on "employment" agreements, web forum TOSs... and on and on. > Everything else is just variations on a theme. If only the world and real life was as simple as your cliche-ridden "argument for theory". As simple as putting up a web forum for D, surely.
