First, it doesen't matter what the imms think. If you had fun, and both your allies and enemies had fun around you, the character was a success. I don't know how someone who played neither character (and likely didn't interact with either often at all) can say X character is better by their graveyard post.

Secondly, Corthy, I don't remember *anyone* talking bad about Griimbling. Nobody thought he'd tear the grove down. He was a leader in a tough time, what can you do?
