[QUOTE="wlmartin, post: 5624191, member: 6679380"] I agree Coming into a 4e forum and complaining about how you don't like 4e is not constructive. If this was a WotC forum and your agenda was to instruct and feedback your opinions so that WotC did something about it, it might have some merit. The fact is that making negative posts about 4e in a 4e forum works only to poison those who do in fact like the edition. Why don't you go to the 3.5e forum and complain about how bad 4e is, I am sure lots of people in there would have your back and it would be more relevant since you are talking about how much you like something over something else, rather than what you are doing here which is slating something over something else. You wouldn't want to walk into a Christian forum and shout "God doesnt exist, I am atheist, Relgion is wrong, I believe in not wasting my time praying to thin air" You would instead be better off in an Atheist forum where such views are common place. The raw fact of it is is, ForeverSlayer.. in any forum or social community on the net or very much in the world.. if you do not share the consensus of the group, you aren't going to get far promoting contrary opinions and probably won't enjoy yourself much. I think this D&D group is very tollerant about such obvious flaming posts. I have been a member of other groups that even the mention of something so obviously troll spam is locked and the user kicked. [B]Bottom line?[/B] I think I speak for most in saying we don't want to hear why 4e is crap ALL OF THE TIME. If you have some genuine arguments to make about why you think 4e is not a good system, feel free to make them but when the majority of the forum who do in fact like 4e (its why we are in here, duh!) disagree with you... don't get defensive and start acting like an idiot, just take it that such attitudes are not wanted here and either take the responses in a fair way or maybe try them somewhere else!
