[QUOTE="Messageboard Golem, post: 2014003, member: 18387"] D'oh sorry 'bout that. I thought I had done a pretty decent job of keeping it PG-13, but didn't know there was a Grandma rule in effect ;) I'll make sure I keep that in mind in the future! My apologies. However, I need to take issue with your final moderator note: [Final Moderator Note: Saying you wouldn't even by the book this advertises does NOT sound like a 5 review to me. -Psion] because I don't think that's at all fair. There are many things that I won't buy, but can appreciate the value of. I don't play any Star Wars RPG, but that doesn't keep me from saying I think it's a good (or bad) product. With a limited gaming budget, I can't buy everything, and I'm not going to spend money on a product that I will never use in my own campaigns, playing 99% RPGA games. Similarly, I could probably write a very nice review about a Porche, but with limited (heh) automobile budget, I'm not going to buy a Boxter next month. I could write a nice review on why one vodka is better than another, but not having taken a drink in 8 years, I'm not going to go out and buy some tomorrow. I think that being able to be fair and unbiased regarding a product you are reviewing is an important halmark of journalism, and just because I don't personally have a use for the product in my own life, if I'm able to see how someone else would, I should be honest about that. Respectfully, Llabak Tharr [/QUOTE]
