Virtues and Vices in the Playground
I'm curious as to how you all would order your strongest motivations. I currently believe mine are:
{table=head]Rank|Virtue|Vice
1st|Charity|Sloth
2nd|Prudence|Wrath
3rd|Justice|Pride
4th|Fortitude|Lust
5th|Temperance|Gluttony
6th|Hope|Greed
7th|Faith|Envy[/table]Homebrew:The Reaper-The Wild MageAvatar by Zarah

Re: Virtues and Vices in the Playground
Do you have to use the seven deadly sins, or did you just decide to?

Re: Virtues and Vices in the Playground
For that matter, where does your list of virtues come from? And should we use the same list?

Seven catholic virtues.

Re: Virtues and Vices in the Playground
Hmm, interesting idea.
{table=head]Rank|Virtue|Vice
1st|Love/Charity|Sloth
2nd|Justice|Pride
3rd|Prudence|Wrath
4th|Courage/Fortitude|Greed
5th|Restraint/Temperance|Lust
6th|Hope|Gluttony
7th|Faith|Envy[/table]
For those who want to see the Virtues and Sins described in some more detail, follow those links. Keep in mind that there's a second list of virtues, I just used the one appearing higher up on the page. It appears to be the more "official" one.Last edited by Alteran; 2009-08-11 at 06:06 PM.

Re: Virtues and Vices in the Playground
OK then:
{table=head]Rank|Virtue|Vice
1st|Temperance|Pride
2nd|Prudence|Sloth
3rd|Charity|Envy
4th|Justice|Greed
5th|Fortitude|Lust
6th|Faith|Wrath
7th|Hope|Gluttony[/table]
I'm much less certain about the virtues than I am about the vices. Also it should really be noted that ranking the virtues and vices gives no indication of possible weightings."'But there's still such a lot to be done...'
YES. THERE ALWAYS IS."

Re: Virtues and Vices in the Playground
My virtues as I consider them, though I am a protestant:
- Restraint/Temperance. This is very important to me, for example I don't drink alcohole, but, being just a man, I often fall short of my goals
- Love/Charity
- Justice
- Hope
- Faith
- Prudence
- Fortitude
Here are my vices:
- Pride
- Gluttony
- Sloth
- Wrath
- Lust
- Greed
- Envy

Re: Virtues and Vices in the Playground
Hah! I'd just like to point out that I am an agnostic that was raised Adventist, and spent a short run toying with LeVayan Satanism. Given the wonky backround, I've come to feel very strongly that balance between the 14 is the true ideal as opposed to one set of 7 or the other. Roughly speaking, the Virtues stem from Charity (care for others) while the Vices all stem from Pride (care for one's self). If one gets carried away with the former, they end up a martyr. Too far into the latter, and they become a sociopath. That's my view anyway.

Re: Virtues and Vices in the Playground
Sorry, it gave me an idea for a simmilar question; what values do you think are the "best"? (Charity, self-dependence, etc, etc. (these are examples, not what I think are good) And, what do you despise the most? (Dishonesty, etc.)
Anyway,
Virtues:
1. Prudence
2. Charity
3. Fortitude
4. Faith (I'm choosing to mean this as "How much you believe in what you believe in, and not in a religious context. I mean, how much do you value your views?)
5. Hope (Same as above, meaning "hope that what you are doing is right.)
6. Justice
7. Temperance
Vices:
1. Sloth
2. Pride
3. Gluttony
4. Wrath
5. Lust
6. Envy
7. GreedThanks for the awesome avatar goes to Djinn_In_Tonic. Thanks!

Re: Virtues and Vices in the Playground
Now, someone analyse the data and conference with a team of sociologists and psychologists. Have the write up on my desk by Thursday.
Also, did anyone else use the bubble sort algorithm on this one? Just to annoy all those computer programmers.
{table=head]Rank|Virtue|Vice
1st|Justice|Envy
2nd|Charity|Pride
3rd|Fortitude|Sloth
4th|Temperance|Wrath

7th|Prudence|Gluttony[/table]
I must say though, I don't really embody any of those virtues.

Re: Virtues and Vices in the Playground
Here's mine. It's probably going to change in 2 days anyway, so this is right now: (I haven't heard of the "7 deadly sins" all together in 2 years...wow. That's amazing. Compared to how I hear the 7 good ones every single week [except Fortitude. I put Mercy above most of these, but I suppose it fits in Charity], though never all together.) (And I'm not Catholic, so that explains why I hear things differently)
{table=head]oth|Virtue|Deadly Sin
1st|Charity|Pride
2nd|Faith|Envy
3rd|Hope|Sloth
4th|Justice|Lust
5th|Temperance|Wrath
6th|Fortitude|Gluttony
7th|Prudence|Greed[/table]
...Man, those deadly sins were hard to place. I mean, they so rarely come up that I almost forgot about them.
(And the weighting is way off than what this graph makes it appear. Use your imagination to interpret that as you may) And...I appear to have written too many side-comments. Time to delete some.Last edited by Je dit Viola; 2009-08-11 at 08:03 PM.

In both sets, I had three that were pretty much equal (Hope, Charity and Faith/Lust,Wrath, and Greed) and I just had to pick one for each spot, but the others are pretty well put in place.Avatar by Lycunadari

The virtues aren't terribly solid here on my part. While I feel I have Patience, Humility, and Diligence down pretty extensively and in the right order at the top, I think I have Kindness, Temperance, and Charity in about equal measure.
Now, I can make a new list for what I WISH these were like for me, and what I work towards...
Note: I did the Heavenly Virtues not the Cardinal Virtues.Last edited by Icewalker; 2009-08-11 at 09:32 PM.
