I'll just start from the top. :P

Hey, didn't think you would reply but: I'm reading you comment fine, but what Alvor says people being dragged was one of the primary reasons for the war, so it was going on before the war, sure, but what I'm saying and you're ignoring is the way he words it means that crap going on happened AFTER Ulfric and his men making an unnecessary fuss about it, ergo Ulfric is responsible for this whole mess because he couldn't worship a god, who doesn't do much I might add, publicly, while private worship wasn't cracked down on. And on an unrelated note, public worship? Even though he clearly knows it's not legal and this stuff totally isn't going to bite him in the ass? Sounds like this guy is an attention whore who wants to show off, "Look how faithful I am to my favourite god, oh look at how he doesn't do anything for me yet I still worship him and this is not a parody of all modern day religions oh look at how I can worship this deity out in the open and you can't oh look at me look at me look at me!" Also, I don't remeber hearing him going all out publicly criticizing the WGC, he just ranted during the moot, sure that's not your fanboism there?

Yeah she grew up there, but in referencing my previous point her name falls in line with Reachmen customs that I wouldn't be surprised if her parents are Reachmen/women. What about it specifically does it prove? His name's that of a Reachmen, and if nothing else it only proves how racist the Nords are and proves my point they don't mix well with other races or just other cultures in general.

Yeah it's bad, but I find Markarth more tragic and in general worse(y'know, racial prejudice and whatnot), the poor are segregated in slums, after 1,000+ years it still just happens to be populated by the people who originally owned the place, the only jobs they can get are tireless and backbreaking, where they get beaten if they make the slightest mistake, and Bothela is the exception not the rule, if you were to try and adjust for spatial compression(I suggest you do), take into account she is the only Breton merchant in a town with 5 other non-Breton merchants. Yeah Maven is in control in Riften, she runs it poorly, and kills people who so much as say her mead isn't the best ever, but she doesn't work people to death, and so far it's partially Laila's fault for not being more proactive about improving the overall quality of life Riften and trusting Maven to reduce crime in her city.
