[QUOTE="FitzTheRuke, post: 9222135, member: 59816"] I don't think anyone is advocating for stagnation. I know [I]I'm[/I] not. As a tangent, this is something I deal with quite a bit as a Comic & Game Store owner. We often get accused of being "resistant to change" when we reject proposed changes. The truth is, we're rejecting TERRIBLE changes, and the changes we've been clamoring for (often for 40 years or more) are ignored. This is similar to that. Just because we (those of us who agree on this) think that they shouldn't overhaul the game regularly, does NOT mean that we think that it should stay the same forever! And before we get into an argument about how what's "good" and what's "bad" is subjective - I don't entirely agree with that (beyond its obvious truisms). If I were "in charge" of D&D, I'd take a good hard look at ANYTHING that is criticized about the game (ignoring obvious lunatics) and target how to make that thing "better". Would my solution always work? Of course not, but then we'd look at the game as a whole again, and tweak it again. It would have to be an ongoing effort. [/QUOTE]
