[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 8175079, member: 6801228"] Or language is not a strait-jacket of explicit magical words. But whatever man, you feel free to tell people that they are ignoring reality and oblvivious to what things are, then try and mollify them byt saying "well, I didnt' say you were doing it wrong. I just said that in my opinion you are not doing the thing you say you are doing, because if you were doing it, I would agree that you are doing it, but that isn't a judgement that you are doing it wrong." So, you can criticize anyone for how they play as long as you first make it clear that they aren't playing the game in the first place. Sort of like how you can treat a person however you want, all you have to do first is dehumanize them so they are no longer a person. It does Max. Oofta claimed a style of DnD is not DnD. And you are defending that he didn't judge a style of DnD to be playing the game wrong, because he instead said that it wasn't DnD at all. So, as long as you tightly define what the game is, you can then reject anything without fear of pushback, because you aren't telling them they are playing the game wrong, you are jsut defining what the game is so that it excludes what they are doing that you don't like. So what? According to your own argument, you are wrong. Oofta says it isn't DnD. Unless your actual point is that you believe Oofta doesn't know what he is talking about and is denying reality. And if that is what you believe, then why are you arguing against me? What, you don't like me arguing against someone who has denied reality and telling them they are wrong, because they didn't use the word "wrong" in their post? [/QUOTE]
