The people who constantly try to ban a book, videogame, movie, ect. for not being morally "clean"
These are the kind of people who make the ridiculous (and false) claim that video games are bad, harry potter encourages satanism, and that a nipslip causes permanent damage to anyone who sees it.
Some of them are nothing but trolls who feed of the resulting media coverage.
Most however actually believe there own insane ideas are correct for example fundamentalists and Allen quist
The appropriate response to these people varies based on situation but most of the time it is one of two things either laugh at them or get angry (but only irritated angry not beat down angry) and point out exactly why they are incorrect.
Normally they have impossibly high standards (religion)
or they have found an axe crazy reason to believe something is corrupting there children.

Moral guardians: Down with video games they cause violence suicide and more violence
Normal person: Actually violence per 1000 citizens peaked back in 1982 before doom the first major violent video game was released. For that matter violence has drop by half since then starting directly after violent games started coming into the media.
Moral guardians: Nah, uh our great leader Jack Thompson told us video games is evil.
Normal person: then your a dumbass.

A Japanese indie game focused around running the kind of item shop present in the majority of RPG games.
The plot focuses on a young girl named Recette Lemongrass who's father suddenly decided to become an adventurer and went off to fight a dragon on top of a volcano... yeah not the best parenting.
Not long after his disappearence a loan shark fairy named tear shows up to start collection on an outstanding debt from Recette's father. Recette being unable to pay the debt believes she will have to forfeit the house so Tear strikes her a deal. They convert the first floor of her house into an item shop which has regular payments for the debt cut from it's profits.
As far as gameplay goes this is a unique and interesting experience mixing a haggling system and item crafting with some RPG dungeon areas which the player can loot for goods to sell with the help of adventurers. Available in English on steam this 2006 game is rapidly gaining popularity and has been reviewed by a few reasonable large names on youtube including Jesse Cox and is well worth the time it takes to play.

One of the best and worst parts of having any form of popularity on the internet. This applies to videogames, movies, youtubers, artists, porn, and basically everything else.
The fanbase is the sum total of all a persons fans good, bad, and otherwise.
While the positive portions of the fanbase often outweigh the negative it can become irritating for yourself and others when your own fans are constantly harassing another persons fans or each other for essentially no reason.
Fans provide the vital service of spreading your name around for others to hear and come to enjoy your stuff much in the same way religious fans never shut up about how you should join there church and talk about there imaginary friend in the sky.
On the other side of this idea however you have the fans who spread your work like the crusades, by destroying, demeaning, or getting butthurt over everything/one remotely similar to your own work.

Phenomenon where in behavior by unconnected individuals creates a seemingly concentrated effort. This behavior is copied from a previous source without an original.
In short Stand alone complex is multiple copies of a behavior, object, view, ect, existing without an original.

The laughing Man is a living example of Stand Alone Complex.
Not only did hundreds copy his works without knowing who or what he was of there own volition all claiming to be the original.
But he himself was copying a plan found floating the net without any apparent source.

Dwarves are the most sturdy race. They are also shorter then most, due to centuries of adaptation to underground homes.
Dwarves are alcohol dependent. They can survive without alcohol but they do slowdown becoming sluggish and grouchy. Dwarves uses alcohol as energy rather then intoxicant. NEVER DRINK WITH DWARVES.
Dwarves love gems & metals and much of there time is spent underground. This can lead to consequences for dwarves who don't get out, mainly cave adaptation.
Dwarves are a friendly race trading with the smelly elves and the humans. Dwarves and Goblins are natural enemies. after seeing each other they will immediately start kicking, punching, and biting each other to death. Dwarves mostly ignore kobold.
Dwarves are a Monarchy. A king who is supreme leader, barons who command regions, and Mayors who rule settlements. All positions can be held by either gender.
Living up to 170 years of age dwarves are very clever building complex traps and tools out of whatever is on hand (rocks)and are the only race afflicted by fay-moods that make them seek out parts to craft items of legendary quality, needs not being met can lead to depression, rage, insanity, and nudism.
Killing animals enemies and plants is ok so long as they are sanctioned. A dwarf committing assault and vandalism are punished. Killing, treason, ect. are punished by death. Lying is a personal matter.

The dwarves of Bad girder where a quick witted bunch with many traps and death machines protecting them but nothing could stop the booze drought.

Frank West the main character of Dead rising. After years of working for newspapers Ex-photographer Frank West decided to go freelance and cover topics most journalists wouldn't even consider including riots, wars, and a myriad of other topics.
In addition Frank West fought his way through the first (official) zombie out break inside of the Willamette mall in Colorado after the city was quarantined, discovered the culprit behind the outbreak, killed numerous insane mall goers who'd succumbed to the stress of a zombie outbreak and became a world famous celebrity.
Unknown to the public until late in his fame Frank West was infected by the zombies during his time in the mall and became dependent on the drug zombrex which temporarily prevents the zombification process and if taken every 24hours can keep an infected person alive indefinitely.
During the events of Dead Rising 2: off the record (alternate but equal version of DR 2) Frank is seen fallen from glory and now a disgraced former celebrity playing on the game show Terror is reality (a gore fest centered around slaughtering zombies) to make money to keep himself in zombrex. Frank isn't a man who can be kept down however and went on to discover the truth behind phenotrans the sole producer of zombrex, Terror is reality, and the numerous outbreaks since the Willamette mall incident including the events at Fortune City where both Dead Rising 2's take place.
