[quote=@Xaltwind] Shizuyama peeps are so smrt, aren't they? "Hey, we're being invaded by another human kingdom and their army of 100,000, but [b]there's a group of five monsters! LET'S GET'EM!!"[/b] *Gets wiped out and further weaken and lower their own chances of driving the invadrs off*[/quote] It is, genuinely, starting to read like you've actually got something against the Shizuyamans for... existing... at this point. I could understand pointing out their cultural ignorance and prejudice as silly, once or twice, but it's grating to see them being mocked for the sake of a "Ha-ha, funny backwater losers and their antiquated lifestyle" joke every time they do [i]something [/i]. They are pressed on all fronts, atm, and just want to exist in their bubble. Even if that bubble isn't welcoming to literal monsters, that's not exactly a drum worth beating every chance you get in the OOC. If you have actual criticism of their philosophy and way of life, bare those grievances in the IC. Just feel like that's a better place than as a running joke/mockery in the OOC.
