Just wanted to add that I do find the anti-Licurg Giveaway thread a bit strong of a response...
And I'd like to believe your intentions were more of originality and keeping with the theme of the game, then to "shock" people, or satisfy any morbid needs you have...

Showing pictures of dead animals. There's a difference...

Well, killing an animal is one way to get to that. Not the only way of course, but quite an obvious one, especially if you want to post something truly "unique", lol.

OctopusMan: People die all the time as well. Should we celebrate that too?
Not celebrate necessarily (but that's not what my argument was about) but acknowledge and accept it a bit more. And I am saying that from the perspective of having had someone die on me, unexpectedly and suddenly, once per decade, so far - plus a few where it was a lot more drawn out [the latest a friend of mine that had been diagnosed with Motor neurone disease (ALS) in 2007 and died beginning of this month].

I'd wish people would have a better - more benign - attitude to our mortality in general. It really does happen, it's not 'negativity' or 'nasty' or 'immoral' to hlghlight that death is a fact of everyone's life. I'd wish people would celebrate the life of the people around them, while they are alive. I'd wish people remember their own mortality more, too; it puts greediness and selfishness in a perspective. You know - you are dying, every millisecond at a time. What you have and what you own doesn't matter in that; but the memories and the life you share does; that is what will linger on after you end. So yes, I'd wish it all would be seen less as a tragedy, because people tent to want to keep tragedy silent and hush it away while being voyeuristic about tragedy befalling people they don't know.

Death happens. The tragedy - as with animals - are the deaths that happen that could be preventable. And there's a lot of those out there. That's what's worth getting wound up and angry about.
