Ethics for baby stealing
« on: July 29, 2008, 11:38:27 am »

While elves go all-cannibal againt the other races for plant murdering in most of the generated worlds, no one minds all their babies being stolen under their very noses by hordes of pedogoblins.

One of the issues people are complaining the most are about the "peaceful" goblins. No one declares war againt them, despite the fact that after some years their population is composed most of abductees .

Even the child's parents don't mind it's stolen... That definitely should be fixed too.

Thirded.  NO one should be at peace with the goblins!

I'm pretty sure I've seen a number of wars started due to Babysnatching. Although that may be an ethics conflict rather then based on specific events in world gen.
