RavenDM is on a distinguished road
The reason you have yet to see an argument is that nobody's arguing it. People do kill NPCs and PCs constantly, true. If a character objects, they'll probably get killed as well, true. You might even hear a comment "must be a newbie." And furthermore, players and staff from any given MUD, and DM in particular, are quite prone to responding verbosely to negative reviews. All perfectly true.

The argument we are making is: the roleplaying world you may be used to in one game is not necessarily transportable to another. A character attempting to transplant himself whole from Ferdarchi to your RP world, without first learning anything about what the opinions and actions of a character who grew up in that world would actually be, would doubtless be "dealt with in short order" - just the same, a character arriving in Ferdarchi with preconceived notions as to what is or is not acceptable based on some other world, is unlikely to have his or her expectations met (the character and the player both).

This is not the RP you're looking for. You are free to go.
