[QUOTE="Roland55, post: 4445581, member: 52303"] That's ... very sad. :eek: It has little or nothing to do with the Mods. There's only so much they can do without throwing the Ban-Hammer around like Thor on PCP. It's us. Each and every one of us. The following comments are not directed at Celtavian. If you see yourself in these words ... ask yourself why. If you don't agree with someone, do you have to attack them to get your point across? Do you have to be rude, insulting, demeaning, nasty ... snarky? Even when the poster freely admits he's just expressing his own, personal opinion? No one is changing anyone's opinions any more ... if they ever did. It's over now. Some like 3.X, some like 4E, and some truly odd-balls like both. There is no more point in acting like a self-important, self-indulgent child -- just get over it. And play whatever game or games you like. It's beginning to look like this transition left more gamers behind than the previous ones. I think that's unfortunate -- feel perfectly free to disagree with me, but (as an exercise for the student) see if you can do it politely. If you can't control your behavior, if you can't genuinely be polite to others even here on the Internet -- maybe you need to "get a life" before posting again. And grow up. [/QUOTE]
