I meant -thing-.  I miswrote due to having my thoughts on the Lucas example.  My bad.It's fun, isn't it?  Especially when people start crying because they just can't stand that someone disagrees.Hating a position is somewhat pointless unless it's a directly harmful position (such as on the abortion issue, wherein the two main positions are harmed by the success of their rival -please, nobody drag that into a topic-).At least you're getting closer to where your anger should be directed.  Do you agree, though, that 2e itself had nothing to do with it?  Remember, 2e is the system, not the design philosophy of what was added on to the system.Like I said earlier, fans are fans because of everything they hate as much as by what they love.  Part of why I refuse to be a fan.  I have my personal tastes, and in the case of music, I cringe in the presence of stuff that seriously clashes with it and avoid it, but I've never felt the emotion required to use the word 'hate'.  But, eh.</blockquote>
