[QUOTE="Neonchameleon, post: 6231100, member: 87792"] ENWorld is, and always has been a D&D 3.X centric site. It was originally, if I am not mistaken, a news aggregator for D&D 3.0 and developed from there. As such fans of old school games have often avoided the site set up for TETSNBN (as a certain old school site calls D&D 3.X). And there has in my experience always been an inherent bias towards D&D 3.X on ENWorld simply by the nature of the community. On the other hand, although I have differences with the moderation standards here (I believe that consistent lying after this has been pointed out (anyone can be mistaken) is far more inimical to discussion than being directly discourteous, whereas the standard here is about how you say things far more than what you say) I've seen no evidence of a conscious bias to 3.X. Merely that D&D 3.X is what ENWorld was set up for and what it defaults to as the popular opinion. It is biassed towards 3.X in my experience, but unintentionally so - with objectivity being impossible. [/QUOTE]
