[QUOTE="Desdichado, post: 1027435, member: 2205"] Perhaps. Your "opinion" on the development of FR isn't really an opinion issue, though -- you can look at the history of the development of the setting at TSR. Your opinion on the nature of the problems other groups are having is also meaningless, since you have no experience with the problems other groups are having. I've been in groups and talked to gamers that had serious problems with FR fanboys in their group making the setting virtually unplayable, and you dismiss these problems as irrelevant. They may be to you, but that hardly makes them negligble to the gamers that are having those problems. To use one example. [b][/b] It's absolutely [i]not[/i] a lie. You stated twice in your opening thread there that you don't think the complainers have even read the book. You've also ignored the almost half dozen examples I've given you of my particular problem; cultures that are nothing more than earth-cultures thrown into FR. [b][/B] I'm not trying to demonize you at all; I'm trying to point out that "your opinion" covers items that aren't really a matter of opinion in many cases, and you're simply dismissing genuine problems that many, many groups have had as invalid. I think your opinion is just fine, for you, obvioiusly, but you have no respect for the opinion of anyone else who disagrees with you; you handwave their opinions aside as unimportant or invalid.
