Essentially saying you realize you're slumming it to even deign to talk to someone and then wondering why you might come off condescending, though, well -- that's that self-awareness problem cropping up again, I'm afraid, no matter how noble, positive, or wholesome one's intentions may or may not be.
I don't wonder why I might have come off as condescending at all. After reading the entirety of this thread for the first time, I am condescending. While there is some worthwhile meat here and there, a lot of the posts in this thread are thinly-veiled (or loud and proud) trolling. For what it's worth, I don't think that about anything I've read that you've posted here, @surreality.
I'm not here to promote Optional Realities. S'not really my job.
While I'm not really saying, "come at me bro", what I am saying is this: Jeshin and Crayon are going to continue to advertise here (for now, at least), because OR's not a MUD-only community (with about half of our members being MUSHes). I'm here and happy to receive and respond to any arguments, whether they be meaningful, thoughtful and helpful -- or whether they be poorly disguised attempts at trolling.

It makes me wonder, why continue to post or update a thread where you're greeted with such opposition?
Because we've seen good players find us from this site, and contribute to the discussions specific to our community in positive ways. Because even though our content might not be pertinent to many MUSHes, it is pertinent to some.
