I'll grant you that BB that I did misunderstand your post somewhat. However, I still feel that you could have approached the situation more diplomatically. From the responses you've given to others, and the general attitude from you that I am forming, I do not believe you're putting your point forward in good faith. After all, we only have your word on this exchange and quite frankly, I'm not sure what your word is worth. You say you're not elitist, but I'd invite you to re-read your posts in this thread. If it is not your intention to come across as such then I would say that the four pages of this thread and multiple posters prove that it is not us, but you, who needs to stop and take a think. Over the years of RP'ing both in CoX and in other RPGs I've learned that RP is founded on respect, and respect is earned, not given. You do not have the authority to try and bend someone's arm into doing something you want because of the way you RP. Hot-take: nobodies RP is inherently 'better' than anyone else's. No one is saying that you can't ignore this person, no one is even saying you're not allowed to give people criticism or feedback. But when you come here and try to belittle someone, and then many other people, because they don't fit your standard, is where you have crossed a line, and that is why this thread has gone on for four pages, not because we're all ignorant whingers who don't know Gud ArrPee.

Asking someone (a total stranger at that) to rename their character, when they have likely spent quite a while either building the character's backstory or even finding that name in the first place, is a bit cheeky you have to admit.
