If you bring up a topic, people will discuss all sorts of aspects of that topic. It's not just "Yay" or "Nay". People will offer ideas for improvements, or share homebrew rules for emcumbrance that they've used, or recall stories of why they started or stopped using such a system. All of that is on topic, and may inspire you to make changes to your system.Heck, in a recent topic about the Wish spell, I brought up how I've ruled the use of a Genie that grants wishes, and how I added limitations to prevent catastrophic events. The Genie is a sidetrack for sure, but totally on topic. I don't think I've ever minded people bringing up their own systems whenever I opened a thread on a certain homebrew rule. In fact, it is what I welcome. And I think most people on this forum would agree with that. They want to share their ideas with other people. It is an idea exchange. A discussion, if you will.Now, I criticized your system for being convoluted. I think that's fair. I think it is the primary reason why many people ignore encumbrance rules. I then suggested an alternative way to rule emcumbrance. Not a rule that I've used myself, but I would use it if I were to start caring about encumbrance in my games. Most people would welcome such an idea, because this is a discussion forum. That is the whole point of the forum. It is food for thought.</blockquote>
