I probably learned it when I was first introduced to bookmarks - dog ear folds being NOT suitable methods for marking books.As far as the appropriate prose for a set of rulebooks - I generally favor clarity in the writing of rules. These are, after all, technical manuals far more than anything else. That's the trouble with the 1e manuals, too little clarity when it was needed - such as in describing mechanics.But once mechanical rules are written, I don't mind a little more purple to my prose. That's where the 1e manuals, particularly the DMG, do better than later editions.</blockquote>
