Well, a few thoughts on this. What this reminds me of is some times that I've played with people of rather different politics than me. I'm thinking of a few conservatives in particular, but there are other differences. Basically, I wasn't there to argue politics with them, so I'd prefer to leave off out-of-game judgments of PCs. I didn't comment on their PCs, and I politely dropped it when they commented on mine. I wouldn't say that comments broke anything for me per se, but it lead to a place I didn't want to go (i.e. arguing politics).
To Roger: The celebration concept is interesting, though Vincent hasn't used it yet. I had some thoughts along those lines a while back,
"What makes a good celebration?"
I think there's a lot there that fits. For a celebration, you want to approach the material positively rather than critically. It calls for players to be more constructive in a sense.
