I agree with you under the basis that it is only portrayed in a backstory for a character and even then there are limitations. If someone were to incorporate that into current time role play then I would have an issue.
Well, since I'm here I will confess it really gets under my skin whenever I try to do anything self expressive that takes a lot of bravery and risk of being judged and others wait until they see the approval rating to decide to copy the details but not even tell me they approve...
