[QUOTE="Bedrockgames, post: 5699854, member: 85555"] There is nothing wrong with a debate. But if someone is just asking "hey why are healing surges a problem for you", I don't think the best response to replies is to aggressively grill the people. The problem is people are debating preferences the same way they would debate facts. There are definitely threads where I think a debate about healing surges would be fine (though like I said these debates pretty much amount to nothing in the end). But the thread topic really seems more like a clarfication issue. Sort of like if I made a thread called "People who like 4E, help me understand your enjoyment of the edition." It wouldn't make much sense to jump on the posters who respond and get into a debate over 4E versus 3E. One certainly could do that, but it won't address the OPs original question really. The the "I hate healing surges, who is with me" thread souds like a much more appropriate platform for heated debate. If you disagree with the thread title you are going to want to put in your two cents. This thread is more "help me understand why you don't like healing surges" IMO. I am actually not getting bent out of shape at all (check out my posts I've been pretty calm). It doesn't bother me that people don't share my opinions. I am just agreeing with another poster's observation that it is not very productive to have a thread about clarifying the reason for the negative response toward healing surges to become a debate about healing surges.
