[QUOTE="Jer, post: 7741127, member: 19857"] Many people also don't like Dragonborn or Tieflings being part of the core of D&D either. There are folks who play the game as "if its in the core rulebook, it's allowed" and they get irritated when new things are added between editions because their campaign has no room for those things. To them these are fundamental changes to the game that are worse than mere mechanical rules changes because they are core setting changes they never asked for and now have to deal with one way or the other in their own games (either by disallowing them via a house rule to keep the setting consistent or stay with "anything core is allowed" and be forced to make setting changes). I don't personally play the game that way - I'm a kitchen sink GM and most of the worlds I run are kitchen sink worlds - but I can understand the irritation at feeling like you're caught between three bad choices - house rule, change your setting, or stick with an old edition that might be feeling its age a bit.
