[QUOTE="JamesonCourage, post: 5756679, member: 6668292"] Oh no, I'd never try to refute your actions based on your perceptions. I'd definitely even agree that this forum can get pretty hostile at times. However, I find these boards incredibly well moderated compared to, well, pretty much everywhere else on the internet, and I like this forum the most in terms of topic range. I actually prefer the 4e forum over the Legacy forum because of the difference in civility, even if I find the topics less applicable to my games (though still quite interesting at times). Understandable. There's definitely some of that on these boards. That all makes sense. I think that 3.X still gets a bad rap some of the time (which you seem to agree with), what with "casters ruined the game" and so on. But, hey, not like people don't take cheap shots at 4e either (subjective shots at that). I just don't know if I'd say that there's "almost a prevailing attitude that it's ok to criticize one, but not the other", as you did. I think that's where we diverge. I've seen plenty of times where the edition wars flared up, especially when I first joined this site nearly a year ago (with Prof C and others trying to pile on 3.X). At any rate, I'm not accusing you of anything; I was just stating that my perceptions didn't match, but that I might very well be biased. Thanks for the civil and thoughtful reply. As always, play what you like :) [/QUOTE]
