    Why the hell do I keep getting Paragon points? I haven't done a single thing worthy of them.

    Some quests/outcomes give you both, I know I got renegade points and I didn't do anything renegadish.

    After every other dialogue, I get Paragon points on top of my usual renegade. Just because I used the middle option like once, and not for taking-stances dialogue either. It can just be a normal question, but because I was genuinely interested in knowing something and didn't go for the snide option - I must be a decent guy?

    Well its not about being decent, its just that you weren't a raging silly goose. Honestly you can easily max one side over the other fairly early on.

    What I'm worried about is that most powers enhance Paragon/Renegade points like 5%-10% when you "level up". I'm not interested in having paragon points, but nooooow when I level up they'll be added to plentifully as well.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    Those just flat increase your current pool of paragon renegade, not the accumulation of them.

    So apparently the Turkish coup wasn't a coup to keep Turkey secular but was, instead, a coup to prompt a war with Greece. Stay classy, Turkey.

    yeah that is fine.

    ultimately there are going to be grey cases in which it is a judgment call, but the rule of thumb is that if you are intending a term as an invective towards an individual then it should be "silly goose"

    yes because a class can't be insulted.

    the annoying part is that you apparantly can't insult people you work with or people who drive terribly for some reason.

    or celebrities or politicians or etc etc.
