Thread: ways of killing DCs...make a whole list here please!

I think people are taking this DC killing thing a little too seriously....

I've gotten into so many action movie-type scenarios, its hard to even count how many dream characters I've dispatche....does this mean I'm somehow worse off for it? Does this mean I'm a violent person who simply must project his violence in any way I can? No. I hate violence. I hate Real confrontation. I have a respect for martial arts, but as far as two people just going at it, I think it is, at most times, avoidable, to say the least. Whether you take dreaming as some deep, spiritual, or moral adventure, or simply nonsensical entertainment, is up to no one but the dreamer. Do you think that just because someone is entertained by taking out DC's (who are not real, btw) is more apt to walk around waking life projecting that onto others? And if so, I'd like to hear how you drew that conclusion. And I don't much get into the logic of "you're killing a part of yourself" because thats implying that Anything actually Dies when you kill a dream character.

I think judging someone's moral structure on whether or not they kill dream characters is a little over-the-top...kind of like judging a comic book or screen writer because you think 'too many people died' in a fictional work.

Totally agree. Awesome point.

Also, I want to try to the classic hog-tied to railroad tracks
