I only frown upon starting points in strength because not only is it the most common stat on gear but it's also the most readily available stat in the form of buffs.
Druids, shaman, enchanters, bards, heck even clerics have strength buffs. Chances are a Shadowknight is going to have at least one of these classes in his group.
I do see your point, for somebody that's rolling their very first character on the server, but then you are shooting yourself in the foot twice. Once by starting with such a gear dependent class that you can't afford to gear up. And then a second time, a year or 2 down the road where you have all the money you will ever need, gear and buffs that put you well over 200 strength but still have all your starting points in strength...

I agree with that. Starting a human means you can easily poach in EC. Rolling a troll or ogre means your stats are already topknotch and you're good to go. Give an ogre any kind of magical 2-hander that isn't pure shit and he'll be rocking.
