[QUOTE="evilref, post: 5371492, member: 73517"] I'll just quote your posts so you can see where you fell down: This, the above, would be you directly linking, through your sentence structure and language usage, [B]4e [/B]and 'firing the customer'. When called upon to provide any proof you claimed: So, a rumour, or possibly a blog post (maybe), the interpretation of which you think is that when [B]3E [/B]was being designed, they considered culling the ‘sacred cows’. Now, let’s just look at the first point ‘[B]4E[/B]….Firing the customer’. Then let’s look at your substantiation ‘[B]3E[/B]’. [B]4E[/B]….[B]3E[/B] [B]4th Edition[/B] ‘firing the customer’ ... [B]‘3rd edition[/B] rumour offered as 'evidence’. This why I made the point about you claiming WotC were planning on firing their customers for [B]4E [/B]10 years ago. Because your argument for the ‘firing the customer’ for [B]4E [/B]is entirely…th[B]e 3rd edition[/B] design considerations. I’m not denying you may have heard a rumour regarding [B]3rd Edition's[/B] design considerations. It’s actually common when redesigning an RPG to consider what to keep. What I’m denying is that there’s any substantive link between your argument about [B]4th edition[/B] and the reasoning for it which has no bearing on the matter whatsoever. [/QUOTE]
