So let me spell it out.

Despite your mistaken impression that I would dislike dark-skinned characters being added, I would not. I do not mind in the slightest. I think it is silly to be offended.

I have - at least I think I have - been saying this all along and I feel like this is over-repeating but you continue to speak to me as if you've assumed I'm against it, and nothing I say is breaking that false impression so here I am saying it again.

When I say "why shouldn't I like them" I don't mean "give me reasons why I shouldn't". I mean that there is no reason why I should like them less than you do.

I feel like this goes hand-in-hand with the attitude that some players have towards games with a fixed protagonist and they object to it being a female character or particular race or just isn't "like them". I've always found that silly and a character is a character - some of the best emotional experiences I've had in videogames are with characters who are nothing like me physically but the story made me identify with them emotionally.
No one said anything about liking light skin characters less because they're not dark skin. You're bringing up something that no one has said here; if anyone's creating division it's you with a statement like that. In fact, in many of my posts I talk about how I will be all in the next expansion if all main story/story characters are all light skin, but that I still prefer if many or all were dark skin instead. The difference here is that you have an unnatural problem with people wanting to see more dark skin characters in the game; you shouldn't have a problem with it since skin color doesn't matter to you.
