U.C. Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 (edited) The fact of the matter is that when you're an Israeli soldier pinned down in a trench by Lebanese snipers, you really don't want to see your commander pull out his D20s and making his agility roll for dodge. That's not a Beholder you're facing there, Sarge. The Israeli Army knows this. And that's why every D&D enthusiast who joins the Israeli army is automatically given a low security clearance and viewed as unrealiable, subpar soldiers. Israeli officials view a fondness for Dungeons and Dragons as being indicative of a delusional mind, RPGers are out of touch with reality. "The game indicates a weak personality," one security official said. "One of the tests we do, either by asking soldiers directly or through information provided us, is to ask whether they take part in the game," he added. "If a soldier answers in the affirmative, he is sent to a professional for an evaluation, usually a psychologist." Also, a strip club. We understand. After all, you don't want to hand over your national security to sexless virgins, their flabby bodies luminescent like deep sea fish from years spent pretending to be an imaginary elf in the darkness of their mom's basement. Real soldiers play DOOM. http://blog.wired.com/tableofmalcontents/2...li_army_ha.html Edited December 13, 2006 by Unstable Connection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
