I've been avoiding the 1e vs 4e fighter debate (round 4 million) but I'm jumping in here. We could argue about the dice and damage, but...

Believe me, I've seen this behavior pattern in plenty of other places, it ain't unique to D&D. "IF THIS IS GONE I QUIT!!!" 4000 upvotes...

Oh wait, I forgot. 6E should tell people to join Enworld! Arn't we the greatest online Dungeons and Dragons community to ever exist or...
