Slynky's Demise

A good point and one I may seem to have overlooked. I rarely pay attention to those descriptions for a couple of reasons. One, I'd have to pay more attention to what the stock descriptions say in order to know if the description I'm looking at is custom or not. Two, they seem more like fluff to me than actually useful information. But I see I could be wrong on that. Again the problem though would be to tell who has created their race and intends to play in accordance with their description and who is using the description to decieve those who pay attention to it.

So you mean, I take the time to write something like *this race description* so that you can know all about how nasty the Zhentara are, and you don't even bother reading it? I am hurt.

In my experience, the vast majority of people that take the time to write a race description play by it...

But I'm only making this argument in reference to non-RP games. In RP games I've no problem with what any player does, because I know up front that everyone is role playing.

For many, every game _is_ a RP game... It is fairly easy to pick these people out of the crowd. This game becomes really boring if all you do is build an empire and attack people...

Oh, don't you worry...some of us HAVE read it...and it greatly affects how we deal with you in certain games....ahem....If you know what I mean...

There is also the much more peaceful Kazharii Imperium, which really isn't an imperium, I just like the name.

You should make it the Kazharii Emporium and sell useless junk there like "Spaceempires.net - Number one in All of Space Empires for a Reason" t-shirts.

I see the error of my ways and have corrected that mistake. Please forgive my ignorance, I promise I'll read all race descriptions in the future. Nicely written, by the way.

Ok, I'll try and be more sensitive to that in the future. I can pick out some of those people easily enough. They're the ones who send elaborate Messages. With others I can't tell.
