I'd say I'd you work a 40 hour a week job and/or pay all your taxes, you are automatically disqualified from a chaotic alignment.
What if I blast "Fuck Tha Police" when I pass a cop car?
Lol, I literally yell fuck the police when I bike past the police station. Still, a person who lives a normal life and has moments of chaos isn't chaotic, any more than a person with a chaotic life with moments of normality is a normal person.

Lol, I've been in jail before, not for anything I'd consider a crime, but for my general disrespect for the law. As a bike delivery person, I've probably run around 100 red lights a month. If the law is pointless, then obeying it is pointless. I actually break petty pointless laws very regularly, mostly out of bounds camping laws, or dodging fees in national parks. More when I was younger and weed was illegal. I also had quite the shoplifting habit back then, and I never felt bad about it. In fact I felt pretty morally justified in some cases, especially stealing from dnc, the consesionaire company in the national parks. They are an evil morally bankrupt company. I think stealing from them is a net positive morally.
Also as a dungeon master I certainly would require a chaotic good character to behave as one, not just have some sort of vague philosophical belief about it. Y'all a bunch of lawful good people or lawful neutral mostly.
Hey, I'm lawful good, I'll admit. I don't mind breaking a little rule here and there if I think it's pointless, like speeding, drinking before 21, running the occasional red light when no one is around... really little stuff like that. But when it comes to religious type "rules" I'm pretty strict with myself, which is why I had myself as lawful good instead of neutral good.

No doubt your players love the way you micro-manage their alignments.

I'm chaotic neutral and I'll always be chaotic neutral. In the D&D world, on the internet and in real life.
BUT I FUCKED UP AND VOTED CHAOTIC GOOD BY ACCIDENT. DAMNIT.
I wish I was a mod so I could change my vote. Can a kind mod please fix it by changing my vote from chaotic good to chaotic neutral, please?

Lol. In d&d nobody ever has a problem being chaotic good. I'm real life, it's not so easy.

I had no idea this had anything to do with d&d lol. I just saw it online and thought it was interesting.

I'm not saying a green couldn't do that, but it doesn't look like I can.
Might be a red thing . . . .
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

I’m pretty sure you can just unvote and then cast a new vote. I checked but i don’t see any option for me to remove your vote for you.

I can see where he's coming from. The chaotic alignment sounds cool and "edgy", and I imagine some folks might be inclined to want to think of themselves that way. Not saying y'all aren't actually chaotic, but I can understand Cap's skepticism.

How are you evil though? I'm intrigued by this. Let's talk.
