All the talking up of 3e was how it was a VAST improvement over 2e, and all that had come before.--oh, my God! characters get one hit die PER LEVEL! What kind of Video Game is this?!?!--Characters heal their level in hit points per day?? That's crazy!--Clerics can heal whenever they want? WHAT? I suppose adventurers will go all day now!; sound familiar? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> I remember every bit of it from here, WotC's messageboards, and rec.games.frp.dnd. However, Eric's community was a little calmer here about it, because it was the new kid on the block, and those older established communities were where the fighting was going on. Now, WE'RE one of the "older, established communities", and we're seeing the same stuff going on, albeit with more vigorous moderation.</blockquote>
