I have to say I'm a little troubled by the tone Jazuela's taking in her tirade against in-game childbirth. What's so wrong with a character wanting what amounts to a doll to play with? Isn't that what many characters are? Dolls you dress up and put into play? Isn't that just another aspect of pretending - the very foundation of RP itself?
Providing a process for creating life should be considered just as valid on a MUD as providing a process for *taking* life. Like combat, coded pregnancy might not be everyone's cup of tea, but that doesn't make it disgusting or vile.
