[QUOTE="Geron Raveneye, post: 3771119, member: 2268"] Hey, that's how a lot of roleplayers treat their fellow roleplayers who come up to them with a brilliant houserule, telling them that it will fix "this" or "that" and how the old way was so clunky before. Happens to all of us, really. Okay, most of us (generalizing is no good after all ;) ). So I guess the new design team is treated just as if they were nothing else but fellow roleplayers by people around here :lol: . In a way, it's a compliment...it means people actually take them serious enough to get emotional about the things they work on. ;) Also means people view 4E as something different enough from 3E to be able to be a really new edition, and not just something half-assed where only enough tiny details were changed to make it incompatible enough with the previous while still being, basically, the same. And for a new edition, that's good. :) I just wish there was a little more realization that you actually can love ALL editions of D&D equally, taking inspiration from all of them, and still call yourself a D&D player. But that probably would break the "every minority needs subminorities to rag on" paradigm that is so very human nature. :\ [/QUOTE]
