I think you're making too much out of my chosen title for this thread -- I was doing the Hunter S. Thompson thing as both a joke and a way of making a point. But, to argue the case a moment -- sufficient loathing may actually induce the same kind of response as fear -- I'm talking about the loathsome properties of some Cthulhoid monsters here, or something of similar severity, of course; not merely the "I loathe pink" sort of feeling!

That's more of a sanity system thing, I think.

And my initial post was intended to poke fun at your Hunter S. Thompson reference and what a "loathing system" would look like if it were as prominent as fear systems in RPGs but for some reason you took it seriously...
