    Why the beer hate? (Forked Thread: What are the no-goes...)

    I'd rather live with people misjudging me than going along with things I didn't enjoy, but rather found highly distressing. I spent far too long being unhappy to want to go back to that way of behavior. And Annie's Mailbox seems to agree with me in principle, even regards to the approval of...

    Doctor Who influences on Ravenloft?

    I could make an argument about that applying to the Greek Underworld, or even Dante's Inferno.

    Why the beer hate? (Forked Thread: What are the no-goes...)

    Indeed. Besides, I'd have no problem with a person who carried an umbrella with them, and I know some people who do that every day. And yesterday I wish I had made the choice. Fortunately, I'm not made entirely of sugar.

    Why the beer hate? (Forked Thread: What are the no-goes...)

    Seems a substantially correct interpretation to me. So I think our mileage is within the standard deviation.

    Why the beer hate? (Forked Thread: What are the no-goes...)

    Well, if you were concerned about the 2 of those 3, I can only say this thread should disabuse you of that. We done worrying about them? Vegetarianism was one of the first things that actually made me realize that it would be better to leave some situations that pick a conflict. Some people...

    What is your alignment?

    Well, I invite you to read this one, see what it actually says.

    Bloat [Forked Thread: Where does this idea come from?]

    I know a number of people back in 2nd edition who liked the Monstrous Compedium or whatever they called the big white book. Others wanted several books to use instead. And that's a case where little re-formatting would have been necessary.

    What is your alignment?

    The recent issues of Superman have just this dilemma going on.

    Alternatives to the letter at the end of the adventure?

    Have an ally there. Have something they'd get from the other party, such as weapons, armor, or money. Have a hostage there, to say "Hey, these guys aren't the real bad news, they're just patsies for..."

    Stop the "Stop the edition wars" threads!

    Will we next have a ban on the "stop the stop the edition wars" threads?

    Why the beer hate? (Forked Thread: What are the no-goes...)

    Ok, I'll not try to do so then, I can live with it. You can stop trying to convince me of things I already know, but I don't agree with as well. I know some people will think bad of me, and I'm sure they'll use reasoning like yours. I won't be convinced by their arguments any more than you'll...

    Why the beer hate? (Forked Thread: What are the no-goes...)

    That's what I think too. Sorta. Though I think I can win, by accepting that I don't need a total victory. Sometimes you just have to go with what you can get. Works for me. We can live and let live. It's those who seem to think it violates some rule, or is a terribly offensive request in...

    Why the beer hate? (Forked Thread: What are the no-goes...)

    I'm sorry you would feel that way about my position. Is there any way to convince you that it doesn't reflect upon you, but rather upon drinking itself, and the potential problems of dealing with a given individual and their drinking. In the case of your example involving the person calling...

    Well, I'm going to disappoint you, because I pick neither.

    If somebody says yes, I personally will be amazed.

    Why the beer hate? (Forked Thread: What are the no-goes...)

    Again, if you don't understand how I'm answering your question, then I don't know how to proceed to explain it any further. I've done my best. Perhaps you could get a better explanation from someone else. Me, I'm sorry, but I'm obviously not able to communicate my ideas effectively with you.

    Why the beer hate? (Forked Thread: What are the no-goes...)

    Is it really that unfathomable to you? Just in another thread, I had somebody say "that was my thinking, but you said it better" and I wasn't even trying to explain things for them, just put my own spin on things. And of course, it's been done a few times in this own thread. So, I don't know...

    Forgotten Realms "Canon Lawyers"

    Actually, you could have read the exact same number, and the other player could remember something you didn't. All it takes is one source of information that each of you interpret/recall/whatever differently.
