Please list a few of the topics that have been identified by the masses here as cliche, done-to-death or generally trollish ... or those topics that are on their way to becoming so.

A few of the obvious that come to mind would include:
* 3rd edition rangers are "broken."
* can you massacre goblin babies and still be good?
* "professional" DMs who charge fees to play.
* Wizards of the Coast's corporate policy toward D&D sucks.
* what level of cleric was Jesus when he was crucified?

I'm sure there are tons more, but I can't remember them all right now.

Put this in the "done to death" file

3rd edition Rangers are NOT broken. They just need to make Messier retire.

You get two bonus points for noticing so quickly. Jerk.

I prefer the term "pre-futuristic" but it does fall into a gray area...

Meta? "META?!"
I beg to differ, oh most esteemed moderator dood. Don't you see the irony in moving a topic about cliche topics away from the board where those topics are most likely to appear?

Meta forum, total posts 20000 = boring; no one cares.
General RPG forum, total posts 372000 = everyone reads same topics again and again.

This should have been a topic about topics, not a topic about how the board works.

Anyway, *moving* a thread isn't the same as posting a cliche topic, Eric. So I've got to ask you to step aside and please not try to derail this very valid and insightful discussion with your petty little moderator powers. You evil, evil man.

In any case, it does suggest another one to the list:
* "Where do I discuss such-and-such topic?"
