I carefully read Steelwind's response to you in this thread, and though his language is terse, I do not detect a hint of condescension in his post - none at all. I think your anger is misplaced here.Basic point here is the wandering monsters is 1e/2e, not 3e and Pathfinder is much closer to 3e than any previous game. The other comments of what 1e wandering monsters were supposed to be even in older editions is they are not killing machines, but methods of using up needed spell slots, taking away hit points - basically weakening the party so they are less prepared to face the encounters of given dungeon.Sure, bad luck in dice rolls could lead to a TPK, but from a wandering monster, that would be extremely rare (not impossible mind you, but almost).I'm not trying to tell you how to run a game, but if you want wandering monsters then go play 1e/2e, where it belongs. Pathfinder is intended as a balanced game. Wandering monsters, unless used to use up resources is not balanced and does not belong in Pathfinder.Of course, as with anything YMMV.GP</blockquote>
