I have no doubt you are a nice guy, but people form their impressions of you from various aspects of your writing. If you put extra effort into making it more legible, people will take time to read your posts carefully and form their view of you based on their content rather than form. If you also put extra effort into content (by familiarizing yourself with relevant knowledge - in this case, Fallout's RP system), people will take your posts more seriously and acknowledge your views as equally valid in a debate.Psyho said:Ok. I see that my post didn't turn out to be such a good idea. Yes I agree that post should be readable
So in the spirit of this community I will rewrite my post to a readable format. But after some time I hope you will see that i am not such a bad guy

It isn't really fair to be too harsh on Psycho. If he's interested in Fallout, and there isn't a Croatian Fallout fan site then he really doesn't have a choice but to try his hand at English. Besides, there’s no better way to learn a language than to speak it (or type it for that mater) so hopefully he'll improve.
The problem with putting body building in a game is it only appeals to a very niche (small or obscure) group of people. It would be difficult to balance the game so that you don't have to weight train if you don't want to but if you do, it doesn't make the game less challenging.
One way you could implement such a feature is through skills. For instance, you could lift weights and get better at hand-to-hand combat. That would probably work much better.
I agree that food should be a little more important though. In the old fallouts it seems like the only thing food is good for is trade (even then it's pretty worthless). A drought doesn't seem like a believable problem when food is dirt-cheap and the first aid and doctoring skills seem less useful when you can rest for a week and get the same result. If the time you spent resting was limited by the amount of food you have, then I think that would remedy such problems without becoming a hassle.
