Someone has a skewed perception much...

Why don't we just gather all the evil people in the world and lock them in a room and torture them until they tell us about the rest of the bad people? And than dunk them in acid!

Its because the world holds good people up to higher standards. Good people don't stoop to the lowly tactics of evil. Even if knocking them out and stealing all of their stuff, than calling in your three buddies to help smack the ever loving crap out of an evil guy is the logical and tactically sound choice... It still makes you an asshat in the eyes of every other good person.

Could never get that RP angle.	Sivart	522	August 30, 2011 11:07AM

Easily my least favorite part of the Paladin code. (n/t)	randomthinker	349	August 31, 2011 10:54AM

your argument is just silly	vortexmagus	554	August 31, 2011 01:18AM
"everyone" is not correct. Most. Not everyone.	Matrik	303	August 31, 2011 06:22AM
I'll try to explain why I think it is underhanded versus other things	Matrik	444	August 31, 2011 07:28AM
I understand your point...	The Faithful of Nazmorghul	454	August 31, 2011 11:58AM
Very good post.	Matrik	412	August 31, 2011 12:23PM
Cheers. n/t	The Faithful of Nazmorghul	280	August 31, 2011 06:04PM
Except hes not hiding in a house. Since you can plainly spot him there, it would be like hiding in an all glass greenhouse from someone :P Cf can only get so real before it gets stupid. (n/t)	Gaplemo	353	August 31, 2011 12:48PM
Agreed.	Matrik	314	August 31, 2011 12:54PM
I am all for people restricting their own roleplay however they want.	Gaplemo	362	August 31, 2011 01:02PM
Don't bother with the water skins, the sperm bank will reject you. (n/t)	Wanderlust-	381	August 31, 2011 02:06PM
Correct. (n/t)	alansmithee	341	August 31, 2011 12:00PM

Right on	Matrik	369	August 31, 2011 09:55AM
Re: I'll try to explain why I think it is underhanded versus other things	Java	448	August 31, 2011 07:37AM
Exactly why I wanted to throw this out there. I think it's where the disconnect is.	Matrik	456	August 31, 2011 07:48AM
So when you play CF, do you ignore the "tell" command?	Java	403	August 31, 2011 07:51AM
I'm sorry you are incapable of understanding subjective matters and view points.	Matrik	331	August 31, 2011 08:02AM
I did actually, did you?	Java	343	August 31, 2011 08:24AM
Thanks for not continuing the pointless insults.	Matrik	475	August 31, 2011 08:48AM
Seriously? How many times are you going to go back and forth on that?	Java	291	August 31, 2011 08:52AM
It's not a simple yes or no question, because it's situational	Matrik	457	August 31, 2011 09:15AM
So are you changing your story yet again?	Java	341	August 31, 2011 09:20AM
I'm not changing my story. I'm trying to expound upon a hypothetical situation in order to relate an idea to you.	Matrik	454	August 31, 2011 09:28AM
Ok, since you had a problem with this specific situation in this log.	Java	451	August 31, 2011 09:33AM
The key word doesn't matter. I emphasized it to point out this dicussion's reliance on semantics.	Matrik	407	August 31, 2011 09:46AM
Re: Since when is using intelligent tactics to defeat your enemies an evil act?	Isildur(VIP)	489	August 30, 2011 07:56PM
No, it doesn't. Stop being real world, in cf that's exactly what you do and it's good. (n/t)	alansmithee	310	August 30, 2011 07:06PM
YES! And while we are at it!	Sivart	409	August 30, 2011 07:16PM
Who said "good" in CF has to be honorable?	qurdind	394	August 30, 2011 08:50PM
That's retarded.	Java	345	August 30, 2011 08:34PM
For me personally it's about "due quarter"	Matrik	359	August 30, 2011 10:22PM
That's fine.	Java	290	August 31, 2011 05:40AM
Never said it was intentionally evil or non-good. That has nothing to do with it.	Matrik	399	August 31, 2011 06:27AM
Which tenet of the Paladin Code, specifically? nt	Java	410	August 31, 2011 06:28AM
Mostly 10, partly 7. (n/t)	Matrik	383	August 31, 2011 07:49AM
That is a HUGE stretch.	Java	406	August 31, 2011 08:28AM
Indeed, the "fair" part and the "valor" part.	Matrik	454	August 31, 2011 09:01AM
You already admitted that summoning into a room is NOT subterfuge because they know you're there and capable of it.	Java	323	August 31, 2011 09:05AM
I admitted that "mechanically" it is not subterfuge, thanks to the where command.	Matrik	339	August 31, 2011 09:17AM
You're just wrong. End of topic. (n/t)	alansmithee	298	August 30, 2011 07:26PM
:3	Sivart	371	August 30, 2011 07:31PM
That's because you're a moron. Have a nice day. (n/t)	alansmithee	410	August 30, 2011 07:34PM
:P	Sivart	397	August 30, 2011 07:36PM
I wouldn't call it evil, but is sub-par paladin RP imo.	Matrik	377	August 30, 2011 11:40AM
So is calling upon your God's power to smite an evil being	jmc	335	August 30, 2011 11:50AM
I don't see how invoking the power of one's god is underhanded	Matrik	428	August 30, 2011 12:11PM
Sneaky	jmc	377	August 30, 2011 12:17PM
You're entitlted to your opinion and I mine.	Matrik	472	August 30, 2011 12:25PM
I don't play paladins	jmc	354	August 30, 2011 12:30PM
Fair enough, yet I don't see a flaw.	Matrik	330	August 30, 2011 12:34PM
It depends somewhat on where the flow of battle is too.	Matrik	393	August 30, 2011 12:36PM
Unrealistic in CF	jmc	430	August 30, 2011 05:43PM
Definitely.	Matrik	322	August 30, 2011 05:55PM
Baerinika specifically told me honor doesnt matter, only killing. (n/t)	Artificial	410	August 30, 2011 11:49AM
How would it be dishonorable in the first place? This is perfect paladin work. (n/t)	alansmithee	432	August 30, 2011 11:53AM
In Dragonlance, Knights of Solamnia would salute their opponents before combat, to not do so was "dishonorable." Same applies here.	Artificial	519	August 30, 2011 12:27PM
It's not really dishonorable, just doesn't fit into my ideal of a paladin. (n/t)	Matrik	303	August 30, 2011 12:06PM
I think it's exemplary behavior. You want a paladin to fail. That's stupid. (n/t)	alansmithee	409	August 30, 2011 11:46AM
Not at all. I'd like paladins to fight like a paladin.	Matrik	483	August 30, 2011 12:09PM
This just in! Elf paladins must run around perma-faerie fired to prevent unscrupulous 'stealth sneaking'. n/t	Forsooth	368	September 01, 2011 11:00AM
Funny, but I'll assume this isn't an actual argument. (n/t)	Matrik	299	September 01, 2011 11:03AM
I don't know that I'd call it underhanded.	Rhuean	412	August 30, 2011 11:20AM
Although, I do like this angle. Summon: Welcome, prepare to meet thy doom. Ready? (n/t)	Matrik	362	August 30, 2011 11:41AM
More like...(text)	lightmage	430	August 30, 2011 12:17PM
Probably	Matrik	388	August 30, 2011 12:23PM
Good on you. But I don't know who these people you fight that just sit there and take that wrath spam. :P (n/t)	Jib	364	August 30, 2011 06:54AM
