[QUOTE="Dire Bare, post: 8551697, member: 18182"] If you've been following my posts in these threads ([I]and its okay of course if you haven't been[/I]), I'm not defending NFTs or encouraging folks to purchase them. I don't have issue with folks distrust and dislike of NFTs, nor do I have a problem with folks who think D&D 5E isn't a good choice for Dr. Who . . . . . Its the binary nature of SOME of the complaints, the entitlement, the over-reaction . . . .[I] right-vs-wrong, black-vs-white, if you're not with us, you're against us[/I] . . . . There are a lot of good reasons to be wary of NFTs, they've been covered well in these threads. I'm reacting to the NFTs [I]are-all-evil-all-the-time[/I] extreme reaction, which is more emotional and negative than simply, "[I]NFTs are not good products for gaming or society[/I]". Some of the responses (few, here) have gotten toxic, accusing me and others who aren't convinced of the completely-scammy nature of NFTs as fools, apologists, or sealions. This isn't the same as some of the toxic reactions to the new Dr. Who powered-by-5E game announced, but there are parallels. Some folks feel that D&D 5E isn't a good fit for Dr. Who, and that opinion is of course fine. Some are taking that opinion much further into toxic attacks on C7 for daring to give a 5E Dr. Who a try. C7 is getting a drubbing on social media right now, mostly on Twitter. It isn't the anti-NFT opinions, or the anti-5E for Dr. Who opinions themselves that I take issue with, it's what I see as the extreme over-reactions to something [I]not-for-me[/I] that some folks are taking, taking too far, IMO.
