I don't know why you answered the question with so much animosity, but thank you for the answer, because none of that was in your original comment.

I don't currently treat my players like anything because I don't have players. I've been wanting to get into it and was asking a question of someone who seemed to have more experience than me. Thanks for being so kind and helpful to a new member of the community seeking information ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

Yes. It was. I can offer an apology if the inference wasn't as clear to you as you'd like, though if I had known you lacked experience in what I was describing, the issue would've been more apparent.

And while I wish you well on your exploration of the hobby and all things likewise collaboratively imaginative, might I offer a bit of advice, going forward? Don't skim when you read and then reply assuming you hadn't; setting yourself up for failure doesn't do anyone any favors (mostly). Also, don't mistake irritation for animosity. There are innumerable ways to describe human emotion, and the nuance is essential to understanding.

I genuinely wish you well out there. Good luck.
