[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 6299911, member: 2525"] Yeah I never assumed bashing was somehow false or unwarranted. Just annoying. For example, let's say some guy at every single party you go to bashes Walmart. His arguments might be 100% valid, it might be warranted to not like Walmart at all...but it's still bloody annoying that this guy goes on and on about it at every opportunity. It's a party, not a meeting of the Walmart Boycotting Committee. Which was my point - it does not matter if your argument about the evils and flaws of Wizards of the Coast are 100% valid and cogent and well thought out and legitimate. At some point - a point reached years ago now - it becomes redundant and a nuisance to bring it up this often, on this many topics. That's what I mean by bashing. The horse is dead. It was beaten to death by a mob years ago. Everyone here has heard this argument, articulated well, repeatedly. Reminding people of your opinion on that topic every once in a while when it comes up is fine - but quit looking for excuses to bring it up unless you want to be [B]that[/B] guy at the party. We know. We get it. You're no longer informing or persuading. [/QUOTE]
