[QUOTE="pemerton, post: 6681103, member: 42582"] But where are the warring camps? My only "war" with [MENTION=6775031]Saelorn[/MENTION] is about whether a certain sort of AD&D 2nd ed-inspired approach to the player role (do nothing but [I]play the character from an ingame point of view confined to ingame causal powers[/I]) is exhaustive of, or even paradigmatic of, RPGing. We've been having the discussion on-and-off for a while now on these boards, and I don't see that it is doing anyone any harm. In this thread, I've posted some ideas that I see as solutions to the issue raised in the OP, namely, how to handle knowledge checks in play. I suspect that OP isn't that keen on my ideas, but on the principle that many more people read a thread than post in it, someone might have seen one of my posts and found an interesting suggestion there. (I know that my GMing has benefitted from reading threads about techniques where I haven't myself participated in the thread.) I don't think that posting about techniques that I know not everyone will want to use counts as "warring". Not everyone has to use the same techniques in RPGing. [/QUOTE]
