Eliminating "Coward" Player Note

Under Player Notes, one of the notes reads, "This trait doesn't seem to conflict with the Coward trait since one can be Evil unless the gamer chooses the Brave trait." I don't think that note is worth keeping. There's no reason I can think of that the Evil trait would conflict with the Coward trait. The page might as well have bullet points specifying that the Evil trait doesn't conflict with the Slob trait or Virtuoso trait. It's simply not at all relevant.

I intend to wait a few days in case anyone has any objections to me deleting that note. If not, I'll get rid of it whenever I remember. --Honeybunch 21:29, June 13, 2011 (UTC)

Evil doesn't conflict with Coward

I tried this out, and Evil doesn't conflict with the Coward trait. In fact, some Evil pre-sim made do have the Coward trait as well. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JD Rod (talk • contribs)

True, an example is Max Racket, thanks for the note :). I'll remove the information. --Guilherme Guerreiro (talk here) 21:36, June 13, 2011 (UTC)

I don't think the author of the note was claiming that Evil conflicted with the Coward trait. Rather, I think they were pointing out that it didn't conflict, which is true, but not really worth including on the page since there's no reason to assume that a conflict would exist in the first place. The note was rather confusingly worded, so I may be misreading something, but that was the gist I got from it.

Guilherme, if you want to remove the note you're welcome to do so. I had intended to leave the matter open for a little while in order to allow for any dissenting voices to be heard, but I suppose the note could always be added back if there's consensus or a strong argument for it. --Honeybunch 22:22, June 13, 2011 (UTC)

Still, I think there might be some confusion, as evil Sims love fighting and being mean, the description suggests that coward Sims do not engange in those behaviors, that might have induced people to think they conflict, when they don't. --Guilherme Guerreiro (talk here) 22:28, June 13, 2011 (UTC)
