Why no Mr. Kettle, it wasn't. I was just elaborating on the first response you got. You chose to ignore that bit and start arguing about rules and whatnot. If you come for an opinion (and seeing how no one here wrote the rule in question that is generally going to be what you get), automatically discounting them and then insulting the people who give them isn't going to get you very far.
Come with a argumentative attitude and sure, I'm pretty sure you're going to see the bee-stung wolverines come out to answer. Granted, I don't post a whole lot here, but I've had nothing but cordial dealings with the few members that take the time to offer their take on things. At least this thread didn't go on a horribly un-related tangent about a) power attack and it's brokenness, b) vampire monks level-draining with flurry of blows or b) power attacking vampire monks level draining with flurry of blows. Count yourself lucky.
