[QUOTE="TheAuldGrump, post: 5597095, member: 6957"] People [i]do[/i] make such comments, and the mods move on such posters in exactly the same way they do on those who do so about 4e. The very offensive Bellhop post is [i]still[/i] in the Pictures thread - and that is [i]exactly[/i] the type of thing that you are weeping about, only it singles out 3e and Pathfinder, not your oh! so defenseless, 4e. 4e is not defenseless, neither is 3.X - both sides need to stop acting like their opponents are the only offenders. I don't have to like your game, nor do I need to agree that it is in any way a better or equal game to my poison of choice. You, in turn, do you need to respect the obvious superiority of my game, even though angels choir when its name is spoken. Early on I think that the mods were [i]more[/i] likely to move on folks bad mouthing 4e, in part because there were some very obnoxious folks who hated 4e. Once Pathfinder started doing well some of the more vocal 3.X trolls lumbered back to their dens, happy that a game they enjoyed continued. Some 4e goblins then took the success of Pathfinder as attack on their spiky fortress and began lobbing slings and arrows of passive aggressive pain. Seeing only one side of the edition war as the aggressors is part of being an edition warrior. I find that it saves time to just hate everybody. The Auld Grump [/QUOTE]
