I have seen them talked about on internet forums, and maybe even seen some heated debates about RAW on the char op forums. But in the real world I just don't run into this large portion of the 3.x community you are speaking of, in fact I have not run into any of them. I play with powergamers,munchkins, and emo roleplayers when the need strikes and I am a gaming slut. I game with whomever. I have seen arguments with the players vs the DM in some cases. And they were always over the verdict of some ruling that the DM had made that they (the player) felt was unfair. I have never in my entire gaming life seen a player get upset just because the DM had decided to alter the rules for whatever reason (to clarify if a player gets upset IME, it has been over the verdict, not the act of rules modification in and of itself). I have not witnessed it even on a single occasion. So while you say it is a large portion, and I say i is not. I just have to assume that neither of us have any real representation of how the community feels about it as a whole. And in the long run I don't think it truly matters. So the only part of your post that really seems to be on point is" Your personal experiences may vary...."As to point number 2. I don't particularly care about the 4e edition wars. I think they are stupid and I am tired of reading about them. I don't care who flipped out on what internet forum over whatever rule was abandoned. None of the folks I know in real life were flipping out. They still are not. But I imagine you know more about 4e and the edition wars surrounding it, as I try not to participate in either. If I sounded rude, I apologize, it was certainly not my intent.love,malkav</blockquote>
