Message: <blockquote data-quote="Diamond Cross" data-source="post: 5224638" data-attributes="member: 51024">Actually, that's pretty insulting.A grognard is NOT a lesser gamer. Simply somebody who has their own style and prefers older games.There should be absolutely no shame in that.It's like someone saying "if it's old it's useless we must only go with the new fad".And all fads come and go. Some just stay a while longer than others.When 5e comes out a few years down the road, the 5e people will be calling the 4e grognards. Then 6e will be calling 5e grognards. Then 100e will be calling 99e grognards.And it's tiresome. We all have different tastes and styles. Let us be and let us be ourselves.But you see, the thing is, when things change too much the people who think like this will become tired of change too, and will be just as resistant to those changes as "grognards" are to theirs.And it's mystifying. Because gamers are not very acceptable in normal society. Being outcasts we should know what it means to be tolerant.But I guess "being right is serious business".How disappointing.And you know what? In my town the word gamer is just another way of saying "fat lazy person who just sits in front of a computer all day long and does absolutely nothing with their lives and has no girlfriends".So please, stop it with the grognard junk and be more tolerant of each other. Because if we aren't tolerant of each other then there is no tolerance period.</blockquote>
