The reason why I use D&D terms is because it clearly defines evil in a rigid way. I thought it would give some clarification to those who try to look up the help file on evil in CF(there is none). Otherwise we could get into that arguement about ... from an evil point of view he is actually doing good in his eyes and the good person is actually evil. Do you wish to get into that? To give Players even more reasons to argue with the imms. Like heat is good for coffee but bad for ice cream. People are talking about defined rigid alignments and the Imperial Imm in saying to the PC because you did an act that wasn't evil you are now anthametised ... means they are acting on rigid rules. It helps control and regulate the game. The rules for D&D are rigid and proper in this case. Philosophy does not belong in Carrion Fields when it concerns alignment (generally). And because it doesn't... all this stuff that we are saying on this forum is crap and really doesn't matter in the game. But it is fun to give one's point of view isn't it :)
