"Good isn't nice." is a new philosophy that's caught on among paladin players and I have always approved of the idea and gone with it before, but I am pleased to know it is gaining more traction. Just because you are a "good guy", doesn't mean you need to be a "nice guy". Another I enjoy is "Temper mercy with wisdom.", as there's a lot of times lacking wisdom or insight will come back to bite one.

This ideology is the opposite of honour, which might make that thinking inherently bad, but why be honourable? Honour is a set of rules made by society to benefit society. Should society be benefited? Because Lawful good decrees a good society to be good?

So where lies the greater good? Neutral good? Chaotic good? Lawful good?
