Anyone else find it odd that we've had yet another account suddenly pop-up in the general RP forum to make arrogant, denigrating, statements about "sandbox games" while promoting a view of GMing that's based on power and abuse?
Seems like there's a pattern developing here.

It is one thing to suspend your disbelief. It is another thing entirely to hang it by the neck until dead.
Verisimilitude -- n, the appearance or semblance of truth, likelihood, or probability.
The concern is not realism in speculative fiction, but rather the sense that a setting or story could be real, fostered by internal consistency and coherence.
