That's quite an opinion of your fellow gamers.
I know, but unfortunately more accurate than you'd think.
In any case, whatever the reason, someone will object to playing 'ugly' or 'strange-looking' characters and including humans is a sound strategy.
What are you basing your opinion on, may I ask?

It's what you say when you refuse to change your mind but you've run out of arguments to those who disagree with you. Falling back on it is one of the surest signs of rationalization.
You're discouraging the newcomer and dumping on his conworld because it doesn't suit your personal tastes. You want this guy to stop conworlding, or change the way he conworlds, because it's not to your liking.
...
Yeah, I think I'll stick with my advice of "don't listen to them, just do what you want."

This world isn't good enough for you, Micamo.

Yeah, so that explains that Jaela is a character in a D&D campaign setting called Eberron. What more do you want?

Jaela aside, I *like* Eberron ;-;
I think it tries too hard. Plus, it is kind of weird to play in.
That's what happens when you let your fans come up with a new campaign setting.
And that's why I only play homebrew.
