In my opinion, never. Especially since most are fictional worlds, if not all? You can distort any truth with fiction, that's what fiction is isn't it?

And who really wants to see his creation die in silent agony? Alexander the Great was thought a destroyer of worlds, but the wisest men saw him as a creator, who would reshape the world. I think that a setting is only limited by its creator's imagination and thus, cannot truly end or deem itself complete.

Stayed away from this while I let it roll around my head.

Enough to PLay is one thing.  Enough to run a long, comvoluted game (without making a ton up as you go) is another.  Enough to actually write novels in is another level. 

28 years later, thousands of pages of data, and a wiki with over a thousands separate pages..and the surface is scratched.  I readily admit that the creative process is one of the most enjoyable parts.

Old, evil, twisted, damaged, and afflicted.  Orbis non sufficit.Thread Murderer Extraordinaire, and supposedly pragmatic...\"That is my interpretation. That the same rules designed to reduce the role of the GM and to empower the player also destroyed the autonomy to create a consistent setting. And more importantly, these rules reduce the Roleplaying component of what is supposed to be a \'Fantasy Roleplaying game\' to something else\"-Vreeg
