Y'all, please don't assume that PvE is all purely farming and crafting and kumbaya, and then make 'furball' or 'farmer' jokes about it. That's just insulting af.
Anytime a party goes into a D&D dungeon (whether online or in-person), they're doing PvE. The mobs and bosses can be fatal to a toon/PC. I look forward to that challenge and enjoy it.
I have zero way of telling you why I enjoy that type of mayhem but not the PvP kind, just like you didn't wake up one day and choose which gender you wanted to turn your crank, or which foods would nauseate you, or what music you like to dance to. It's called 'preference', and it's a personal thing.
In a past life, I was a chef. Some folks loved my cooking. Some folks didn't. Taking that stuff personally or hating on/making fun of people who didn't care for my cuisine (or anything else determined by preference) would be ignorant bigotry.
In a game environment, we're free to enact stuff that would be completely unacceptable irl. Folks who identify as demons might be ok with ignorant bigotry and all kindsa evil in-game, huh? Violence and mayhem can be cathartic - even for a pacifist like me! But let's try to keep that shizzle in-game, ok?
