D&D 4E Does anyone agree with me about 4E?

This clearly shows that WOTC is turning its back on its 3e players, most of whom loved the many high quality 3e Dark Sun products.

-All- D&D players loved Dark Sun. I have the surveys I took at athas.org to back it up. Sure, it's a small sample, but a percentage of 300 D&D players is just as good as a percentage of 3 million, right?

They're a class. My first 4E PC will be a dragonborn warnazi/warwizard with warfeats and warstats. Is there going to be a 4E war-arms and war-equipment guide? And is WarComplete War available on Amazon yet?

It's so obvious from your previous post that you've never seen/read/played/been directly involved in the creation of the work of Random Game Designer #9867, therefore rendering any opinion you might have expressed completely invalid. Don't you know that wereforgedlings originally appeared in Unheard-of Fantasy book/film/RPG from 1984? I don't understand how you can even have the gall to breathe in my presence with so little knowledge. Have I mentioned how much I HATE gnomes/two-bladed swords/monks/some random bit of fluff included in a sidebar in an expansion book/the typesetting in the two-weapon fighting chart in the 3.0PHB? If WoTC doesn't take note of every single rant I've had on this board and every other board I post on, they've obviously lost touch with the core D&D audience. HATE HATE HATE so much hate. I hardly have time to do anything else I'm so busy hating things. My blood pressure is like a million and I grind my teeth in my hate-filled sleep.

I thought they were waiting to make them a class until they release the "Master Set."

I have to make this my sig for a while because it's such an accurate description of my current existence.

If I did not have more self control...

I would post the same response that I have had to nearly every thread on this board:

If you don't like something specific from the 4e preivews - don't allow it in your campaign.
Classes, Races, Monsters can all be exiled from a world or a region.

Post examples of things I disallowed or discouraged in 3.5 games - such as gnomes, half-elves, spiked chains, singham, dragon based sorcerers, Orb spells and monks.

Admit that if you dislike rule changes you might want to stick with an older edition.
