This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: Omega;1146629And to debunk the old complaint that SAN loss to seeing or experiencing things is "unrealistic".
I mean thats a dumb argument; that seeing some things or experiencing some things can't cause mental degredation.But it is unrealistic the same way hit points are unrealistic. I guess different people find one more bothersome then another.
The argument is; that its not a good representation of this state of being or mind, not that people can't ever degrade mentally from experiences.
