I am curious about what you mean by my supposed "large # of pro-WotC threads." The only thing I can think of that could at all be viewed as "pro-WotC' was <a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/293968-if-paizo-can-why-cant-wizards-coast.html" target="_blank">this thread</a>. I also wrote a variety of threads and posts in which I was expressing an opinion that 4E, like Pathfinder and other editions of D&D, is a valid, real form of D&D. But a "large # of pro-WotC threads"? Hardly. Furthermore, if you read my posts you will realize that if I am pro-WotC, I am also pro-Paizo. This is exactly the type of tactic I was calling you out on and which you turned around and enacted on me: trying to push someone into an oppositional, pro-WotC/4E stance, even when they don't feel strongly either way (such as myself), and then outright lying about what I have said or written in the past. I look forward to seeing what they come up with (and will probably buy it). As I said in my post above, I really like what I have seen from Paizo and they seem to really embody a company run by gamers for gamers. I don't mean to bag on WotC, but something seems lost in the shuffle, but more on this in another thread that I'd like to start.I think Pathfinder especially could benefit from this sort of simple, core game and set because of the daunting nature of the Pathfinder Rule Book to a newbie (almost six hundred pages!). It seems that Paizo's initial intention was not to try to market to newbies, but to 3.5 players and possibly lapsed players; now that they are more successful than even they could have imagined, they're going for more. I do admire this and wish them well. I still think, however, that the overall health of the hobby is largely dependent upon how D&D does.</blockquote>
