Folks,
Okay, let me set something straight for all of you.
As far as EN World is concerned, 4e is a role playing game. So is 3e. And, unless they decide to put a cabbage between two covers instead of a rulebook, 5e will also be an RPG.
Now, any one of these may be an RPG that you don't personally have any fun with. And you know what? That's okay! If we all liked the same things, the world would be in for one heck of a haggis shortage.
Fighting over it, edition warring, as we call it, is non-constructive. We all know you want your voices to be heard, so that your desires are reflected in the new design. We get that.
But they aren't going to listen to you if you act like a big old jerk.
Really, they won't.
They won't, and none of the people on the other side of the discussion will, either. If you're going to be a jerk, just save us all the trouble and shout at your bedroom wall, please. It'll save us the bother of removing you from the conversation.
From this point on, we expect you to be perfect ladies and gentlemen in this thread. That means no use of foul language (even masked). That means you shouldn't get personal. That means you don't stoop to insulting people for what kind of game they prefer.
Any questions? Please take them to e-mail or PM with your favorite moderator. Thanks.
