I have seen these problems since 1980 when I first started playing.Apparently I run nothing but endless hack fests, starting at A for Aaracokra and ending at Zombie.Then again, 2/3rd of the respondents in the poll are apparently just as bad as I am.  Nope, could never, ever be the system that is the problem.  It's 100% my fault.  <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/paranoid.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":uhoh:" title="Paranoid    :uhoh:" data-shortname=":uhoh:" /></blockquote>
