[QUOTE="CleverNickName, post: 9082114, member: 50987"] I'm glad to hear that, actually! We roll our character stats as well, and have for years, but I got the impression from many, many people here in these forums that it's far from the preferred method. I've read several dissertations on how it should "go away," or at least be demoted to the variant method in favor of Point Buy. I would argue the same. Note the qualifier I used, "...that I read about here on ENWorld." This poll is a response to all of the many, many comments and threads here on ENWorld that pertain to "unbalanced" features in 5E. I'm sure you've seen plenty of them yourself. Among those who chose to participate, I honestly expected everyone to be a lot more polarized into the two extreme camps (especially after giving everyone else two ways to opt out). I'm actually quite happy to be wrong so far. [/QUOTE]
