i dont have the links, the forums might not even exist anymore, but i remember a lot of d&d alignment arguments from the 00s that went on for days and garnered thousands of comments. no one changed their opinions and the comments were essay length because you HAD to (you didnt actually have to) always quote the previous post too.

good times marx-ok
