[QUOTE="Quasqueton, post: 2953903, member: 3854"] First off, my name is "Quasqueton" (name taken from the classic BD&D adventure [i]In Search of the Unknown[/i]). Of course my post has personal opinions, it was a post of my opinion of the data he presented. The "support" for my opinion is the data right in the opening post. I don't think I said anything in opposition to, or contradictory to the data Melan provided. But I did state my opinion in opposition to and contradictory to the opinion Melan provided. He looks at the data and sees one side of the subject, and I look at the data and see several sides of the subject. And I didn't say that his having a personal opinion, or even stating his personal opinion was bad. I said:Presenting data as support for one's opinion tends to invite argument over the opinion. Presenting data straight, as is, invites discussion of the data. How can you run a linear dungeon without railroading? Run it like you would anything else. Railroading is a phenomenon that has nothing at all to do with linear dungeons. Quasqueton [/QUOTE]
