[QUOTE="Harlock, post: 263071, member: 4545"] KK I would like to say you are your own worst enemy and BTW a bad walking advertisement to Harn. I had actually been interested in this game because it sounded like it had some cool things I could use. I am of the ilk that prefers my fantasy to be fantastic (if I want gritty realism, I'll read the paper, which by the way, is written at about a 6th grade level so us D&D types can understand it). But some of the detail in Harn appealed to me. Now I see several self professed "Harniacs" and I find the lot of them to be contemptuous, holier than thou, self righteous blow hards who belittle a system AND it's players/users by making sweeping generalizations about their level of education, knowledge, vocabulary, and gaming style. I'll contend that you have never played in one of my D&D games (and I'm pretty sure I'd remember someone like you sitting at my gaming table) and therefore have no right to assume what my game is like. Your thinly veiled loathing of D&D and the "lowest common denominator" dregs of humanity that it MUST attract are irritating, biased, prejudiced and down right infantile. I would never be so presumptuous as to assume anything was over the head of someone I had never met, yet you have done so emphatically in several posts in this thread. So you think Harn is the most intellectual game system ever devised. Bully for you. Glad to hear it. I understand what you are trying to say even through the gritted teeth and venomous bile you spew forth between what might be compelling argument were it not for the aforementioned spewing. The problem is, I can't trust your opinion because you show such a bias. Someday, maybe, I'll become interested in Harn again, but I doubt it will be any time soon. Good day, and let the flames rain down. I held my tongue as long as I could, and tried to be polite as possible in my previous post.
