Must let this out, no time to consider arranging my thoughts. Tali'zorah is roughly the perfect woman. Perfect mentally in every way for an enjoyable and lasting relationship, with physical problems (not beauty problems; this is what allows this to work so well) that can be worked around enough to allow for full development of relationship, with enough drama to keep it from being boring. Problem exists here: no such woman will ever exist in reality. Having only one species to draw potential partners from inhibits anything interesting from occurring to maintain a nonboring relationship, barring cultural differences that can inhibit mental acclimation to relationship. The current thread is far to focused on Tali'zorah's role in the Mass Effect universe. I suggest focusing on the ideal that Tali represents for people such as us: the perfect woman. Not only will this broaden conversation topics, allowing for less repetitive and more active discussions, but this will bring us closer to obtaining a Tali of our very own.
Also, the phrase "Talimancers" sounds like witchcraft, ie.

, Necromancer, Pyromancer. We need a new name if we are to be taken seriously in ANY community. Saying we love a video game character will not gain us any respect; saying we would love to find a girl similar to a video game character is plausible.
At this time, I would greatly appreciate any suggestions for replacement names for ourselves.
That is all
