[QUOTE="hong, post: 128861, member: 537"] Yes. Do you? To humour you some more (and because I still have much happy fun love to share), just because a Sp ability "works like" a spell doesn't imply it _is_ a spell. A Chevy works like a Ford, but a Chevy is not a Ford. All that the various definitions mean is that Sp abilities have _effects_ that are, for all practical purposes, identical to the spells they mimic -- thus things like save DCs, areas of effect, ranges, etc, are as given for the spell descriptions. There are many, many instances besides feeblemind where Sp abilities differ from actual spells, in terms of their mechanics; all you have to do is review this thread to see what some of these instances are. These alone should be conclusive evidence that Sp abilities are not spells, no matter how much you would like to confuse the issue with spurious quotes from the SRD. Well, they don't seem to be working. You need to be HAPPY! BE HAPPY, DAMMIT! I only have one question. Why do you capitalise references to the first person (Me, My, etc) in your posts? [/QUOTE]
