    I did take it too seriously, but its important info, especially in the case of physical abusers. A lot of times an abused woman's father and brothers will go beat up the boyfriend. This usually results in disaster. It makes the woman feel sorry for the abuser. The abuser then will then try to be "reformed" for awhile. Unfortunately without an understanding that love is not control.....the abuser will eventually start hitting again. It may be weeks or months but you better believe that the abuser has the time he was beat up in the back of his (or her!) head.

    Of course we aren't dealing with a physical abuse case here (thank goodness), but the principles involved are the same. Vigilantism leads to tragedy. So I would recommend to everyone that you don't attack this person in game.

    Again you took my comment WAY too seriously. Talia is a friend of mine aswell a decent ammount of people on Hyperion. I am moving servers so it makes since I create a character on that server to keep in touch(stalk) with them. As for Bastok, I wish to have no interactions with him neither good or bad so he'd be added to my blist before I even finish the opening cutscenes.

    I get no enjoyment from causing others pain, emotional or physical. My only source of enjoyment is fun and laughter among friends and helping others no matter what the issue may be. I don't need a run down of the consequences of harming others because I have experienced a lot of that stuff first hand IRL so I am more than aware of them. >.>;
