I think others already summed up the issue pretty well, but unfortunately I've noticed a bit of a spike in the elitist population and tendencies in the game since a couple years ago. Especially as the player base gets older, I think some people begin to become more critical, and the toxic mentalities of most of the internet unfortunately can rub off on people. I mean, if it's not your preference, just don't make a character like that should be a simple concept, but unfortunately there's always going to be someone feeling the need to shame people for being creative. So sorry you had to endure this.
