First: It's not really MY forum so much as a forum I created (yes, I'm going to split hairs, because I don't want this to be considered MY forum. So there. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />). I made it so that people who are interested in posting new ideas or revising parts of the 3.5 system can come here and post, discuss, and revise in a polite and civilized manner. We're still part of ENWorld, and those rules still apply here - including the one about calling someone out. If you think someone's being rude or insulting, you should either talk to him in PMs or call in a moderator, not do it in public.Second: We seem to be forgetting the common courtesy rules of the internet. Yes, there is a person on the other side of that screen, reading your posts. Being honest is fine; being blunt is fine; but try to remember that there is someone else out there. You can be honest and blunt and not make it sound like you're out to get someone, or trying to insult them. I do it. I've told Sylrae that his eldritch blast idea needs work, and he didn't get up in arms over it. Third: Hawken, since you mentioned it, I think your posting attitude could use a little work too. You DO offer constructive advice and criticism, but your attitude is a bit off-putting. I'm willing to put up with it, to a degree, because you offer good advice, but apparently some other folks are a little less accommodating than I am. This is not to say that I want you to go - that's your choice - but if you could dial back the aggression a bit, that would be great. I love a lively discussion as much as the next person, but if reading someone's posts gets my blood pressure up, I'm going to either avoid them or put them on my ignore list. I've been here six years and only encountered one person like that (not you), which says a lot about these forums.So... can we all play nice?</blockquote>
