Isn't there anything that bothers you that doesn't bother other people? Should they come up to you and say you have no right to be bothered by it.

No right to be offended?

We have no horses, which is highly depressing, given this is apparently the early middle ages or earlier, there should still be the Black Forest or its close cousin which means that yes, Stag, bear, and boar are common, but so would Wolf, linx, Domestic housecats(at least Puma sylvestris.) and several other animals should be around, and personally I'd love to see horse out on the grasslands. Also on a sidenote, chicken are from Asia. Traders brought the first around.

Who said you have no right to be bothered by anything? I didn't. I just don't expect the world to magically change just because some things bother me. You can't please everyone. What bothers some annoys others.

Well it sounds to me like you're refusing to consider the change or give serious thought to those who are bothered more because you want to play some sort of hardass and teach them to be tougher or because you're so afraid of political correctness gone mad more on the merit and quality of the present alternative.

Okay. Now move along to the next MMO board and cry for more skin colors, maybe one day they will all look the way you like.

Every other MMO has skin colours

How about you go to the next person who dares suggest something politically correct and harangue them. Maybe one day you'll convince one they're wrong?

Oh, apparently you're the only one, so I won't bother.

I assure you, your mindset isn't as popular as you think.

The men of the South or some such. They weren't true negroid(the actual term for someone who is of that phenotype) but they were of a darker skin tone at least.
