Once again though, you fall in the trap of the self selected data mentioned before.
One can paint the nice illusion of the noble 4e avenger defending themselves against all the grognards, but it is just that, an illusion.
It is 100%, the original poster self selected data. Any researcher will tell you so.
You are free to offer an alternative explanation that addresses the difference between defending what one enjoys and hating on what one does not like. I don't think you have an alternative explanation, but you can certainly give it a shot.
And no, any researcher will not tell you so. Any researcher who gives a damn knows that self-selection is a confound, and that there's rarely such a thing as a confound that cannot be adjusted for, and that there's almost never such a thing as a confound that affects the data by as much as 100% in either direction. Don't toss the "any researcher knows this!" line out there unless you're actually familiar with research.
