While I see your point, I have to say that I personally disagree with it. I don't like playing evils. I even had an evil character in a cabal with a tattoo, and I got sick of playing around level 36 or so. You said "Variety is the spice of life." While that may be true to an extent, it doesn't fit everywhere. If it did, no one would hold a job for a long period of time, no one would get married, and no one would continue to play the same text-based game for years on end!

Ofcourse my personal preferences for what is fun will carry over from character to character. I'm not going to play something I don't like, just for the sake of variety. I guess the point I'm disagreeing with is "But it's also something that I think is not a good thing, and shouldn't be encouraged." The fact that people are playing what they like to play IS a good thing. That's why people keep playing. If you like playing the underdog every time, great. If you like playing evil every time, super. Have fun.
