Errors are not in a hidden code that only a select few people may understand, with long examination of it, and an even fewer, more selected people may actually see.The game mechanics, everyone see them, and are quite easy to reverse-engineer, especially given all the "Behind the Curtain" boxes in the DMG.Of course, WotC wants the most people to buy the revision. I won't blame them of being evil geedy capitalist pigs more evil, greedier, more capitalist and more porcine than everyone else.I really don't think they voluntarily introduced errors and weaknesses in D&D 3. They wanted to make a solid game, one that could stand out and hold the standard of its ancestors; and we must admit they succeeded in that task. D&D3 is an excellent system.It's not a perfect system (none are), however, and over the years, with all the feedback, a great number of flaws and weaknesses have been found. It's normal and predictable.3.5 will also have a large number of errors, and the errata stream is not going to thin. That's normal and predictable. But this won't prevent D&D3.5 to be an improvement on an already good system.</blockquote>
