There are very few people on this forum that played AD&D, much less basic. I played basic probably once and my impression was that it was a simplified version of the game. Then again, that was long, long, ago.
Huh, I always got the impression that this forum was heavily slanted toward the "old timers" who started playing pre-3rd Ed D&D and that the players here who started with 5E were in the minority.
