I'm just wondering where you got the impression that I was confused about nonviolence and nonconfrontation. Was it something in my blog post? I haven't really said anything anywhere else.
And Ben (I'm sort of working my way up, sorry): I agree with you as well.
RPGs typically set up the rules so that violent acts of aggression are a superior means of resolving situations, and that turning away is failure. There's cool exceptions, though, like Dogs and TSOY.
Assuming that's what you meant.
