On Leanon, that kind of RP did exist, but it was not the prevailing sort of RP. For example there was one tryker taliar who played tryker extremism in a convincing and entertaining way, and that was much appreciated. But granted, tensions between the nations, peoples, and creeds were mainly carried out in a more moderate style. Main reason was that no so many roleplayers liked to take the stress of credibly playing an extremist.

My impression is that roleplay on Aniro was generally carried out more controversially so that extremism did not aberrate much from the mainstream. To say it somewhat polemically, playing an extremist did not come with a considerable price as extremism usually might come, price like disapproval or contradiction. So it was possibly easier to play an extremist, just joining the crowd, howling with the wolves as a german proverb depicts conformism.

On Leanon, and probably as well on Arispotle, extremist positions, be they religious or nationalist, were nonconformist as far as they occured. At least at Leanon, they were definitely not frowned upon as stated above.

In a way, I am extremistic, too, though a neutral extremist. Born in the prime roots, raised on an Atys Rangers military base after the death of my parents, I am owing all to an international, interracial, and religiously neutral community. My chosen homeland is the desert, where my tryker ancestors lived already before the first great swarming, yet I shall always remain a child of the glowing lands under the bark, lands not only of incredible dangers, but also of incredible beauty, peace, and calm, far above the quarrels of homins on the surface.

Thus I shall never bend my knee before a throne or an altar. Ni dieu ni maitre. But I shall always respect different choices.

Back to the extremism question: I think that extremism is not "violently condemned" by the former lea/ari community, but not considered mainstream. We all should strive to integrate different styles of RP.
