[QUOTE="Gothmog, post: 4268889, member: 317"] I agree- a controversy would vastly help D&D sales and get a lot of younger players interested- heck, it might even pull them away from their MMORPGs! Can you imagine? "The PHB contains real spells to charm that hottie in 11th grade!" or "Become a real-world warlock and use this curse to give your enemies constipation for 1d6 + your Charisma modifier days!" Honestly, I think as others have said, our culture has matured significantly since the 80s. 95% of people out there know D&D is just a game, usually played by nerdy, socially shy people with vivid imaginations. Why get worked up about a game other people play that doesn't affect you when there are other more important real world situations that are MUCH more problematic on a national and global scale? What? Actually read, research, and do your homework before getting morally outraged about something?!?!?!? Why, that would be......logical! Don't worry, that ain't gonna happen. ;) [/QUOTE]
