[Inquiry] Breakpoint 4. No More Fairy Tales

[Jon Awbrey]

o~~~~~~~~~o~~~~~~~~~o~~~~~~~~~o~~~~~~~~~o~~~~~~~~~o~~~~~~~~~o

I had planned a longer preamble on this score, but another breakpoint has
just become a higher priority, so I will keep this initial jeremiad brief.

There are two types of things that fall under this heading:

1.  Despite the nostaligia that some of may have for our D&D, Swords & Sorcery,
    Trekkie, and MORPH (Mass Orgasmic Role Playing Hallucination) days, we must
    4thwith, if we ever want the RW to take us seriously, drop all talk of that
    entire empire and devolutionary descent of trolls and other boogie personae.

2.  We need to drop the utopian fantasy policies of Assume Good Faith,
    Ignore All Rules, No Binding Decisions, and other such WikiPediatric
    nursery nonsense.  This is not how the RW works, and we simply have to
    quit play-acting otherwise.

More later ...
