Thanks. I appreciate the fairness.

I agree that I could have merely said something like, "...wild and slovenly behavior, such as x,y,and z...." At the time, I was trying to create a vivid verbal picture that conveyed additional concepts such as the Barbarian's penchant for tattoos and piercings. Maybe next time I should just spell it all out instead of refactoring it for the sake of brevity.




^ Wow surprised at the pushback on that. The term "Wild Indians" is referring back to the "Wild West" days and is no way indicative of actual modern day American Indians. Maybe another term could have been used however I think it was blown out of context.

I think what he was trying to get across by using the term is this: http://vimeo.com/25239728

Edit Never Mind: missed the "Dot" part. Yes that was clearly over the line.
