[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 8109642, member: 6801228"] This really doesn't seem to be a defense of the module. "Yes, this idea is stupid. That is why I ignored it and decided they didn't mean it, because it was so stupid" Under that logic, they could have written anything and it would still be a good adventure, we would just have to ignore all the parts that weren't good. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You seem to have missed the shift in this conversation. We solved the "how do I fix this fluff text" in the OP. Seriously, they offered great solutions and over the first two pages we fairly well hammered out solutions on how to re-write the module. The conversation then shifted, because a lot of posters took the position of "why are you talking about re-writing it, no one cares about these details, and you are stupid for complaining about them instead of just running the module as is, there is nothing to fix." And quite a few of us are still having the position of "We can fix it, but is it really good for the hobby and the perception of the modules that we need to fix it?" And instead, over the last... I guess ten posts before the post I quoted? There have a been a slew of "why are you bothering to even care about these things. No one cares, stop complaining." Which frankly is just dismissive. Obviously we care. If we didn't care, we wouldn't still be talking about it. I want WoTC to make the best products they can make. I don't believe this represents a limit of their skills. If you do, and you are satisfied with it... great. You don't need to keep dismissing the rest of us. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I find it telling I wrote my above post, before clicking to the next page and seeing yours.
