[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 6311749, member: 18"] Then perhaps your problem here is that you see anyone who disagrees with you as "students" and in need of a "lesson", when you should be more open to learning yourself. Exaggerating for effect as frequently as you seem to be doing leads to you advocating some fairly ridiculous and extreme positions. I'd write "Does not actually listen to others or attempt to honestly understand their positions, thinks 'winning' the argument and looking 'smart' is more important than discussing the issues involved" on your report card, frankly. When I was in college, a very long time ago, I did have professors who had that attitude. It's safe to say that, learned as they were, they were not great educators. Since then, I've come across employees with a similar attitude. Again, suffice to say they are not great at learning. Further, and I have no idea if you are one of them, there are tons of videogame designers who need, very desperately need, to understand that numbers do matter, and you're not going to get anywhere until they're right! :) They're particularly common in the RPG field, and super-common in indie RPGs.
