[QUOTE="travathian, post: 6999640, member: 12105"] That is a blatant lie. You have said flat out, the only solution you want is for WotC to publish rules which solve [B]your [/B]problem with the game. Fair enough, but you have no one to blame but yourself. Go look the OP. It is garbage. It doesn't frame the question. It doesn't ask for help. It is a link so some dudes blog and that's it. The title easily lends people to going a different direction. Frankly the mods should have deleted the thread to begin with and told you that simply linking to articles adds nothing to the forum. There is no resolution for you besides WotC publishing rules that you deem fit to solve a problem you claim exists. Neither does posting on this forum. Not one damn bit. If your only acceptable solution is an official construct from on high then posting here serves [B]zero [/B]purpose. You knew that from the beginning. So I guess it did serve a purpose, to vent and troll the forum. Except every time someone posts a house rule you hem and haw and wish it were official from WotC, or that it requires too much work, or that its not in a finished product you can just buy. People have, and you dont want them. You had the opportunity to create a thread called: "I need house rules for creating additional means of spending gold in 5E" But you didn't post that. Instead you posted this garbage thread which was a thinly veiled way of simply saying "I want WotC to publish Magic Mart rules for me" Hell, you didnt even post a thread "I want Magic Mart rules for 5E, help me create them" This whole thread has been one big troll. And here's the best part, you cry baby from your high horse that the moderators should come in and clean up your precious thread! What premise? You posted a blog link and your subject was literally the title of the blog post. [B]People answered the question in the title[/B]. YOU are the one who then tried to make it all about Magic Marts. You had the opportunity to frame the thread properly and you utterly failed. You didnt even need to post the link or quote it all. You could have simply said you dislike the existing implementation of Magic Mart rules, help me create new ones. You didn't. And guess what, half or more of the posts you have made in this thread would fall into that category. Cause they all amount to: I want WotC to change the rules for me. Gosh, just think if we had this rule now. I could report your off topic post [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?517252-Eliminating-darkvision-from-most-races&p=6999413&viewfull=1#post6999413"]in this thread.[/URL] Careful how you wag that finger at others when you are just as guilty. You pontificate too much and contribute so little of actual value. I agree. And were I a mod, I would have locked the thread from the first post and told you to stop creating garbage threads with OPs that contribute nothing in the way of creating a discussion. Your threads are just rants and you arguing with anyone who disagrees with your premise. You don't want suggestions, ideas, fixes. You just want WotC to make the game you want. Stop posting here and just mail/email/tweet WotC instead. You want a solution to your problem you have 2 venues: Bring the issue to WotC with what you want changed; come up with the rules yourself with or without the help of the community. Based on the whole of what the designers of 5E have posted, I doubt the former will ever happen. But more power to you to get them to change the game to fit your playstyle. This forum, though, isn't the place to get their attention. The latter though, now that is completely feasible. The community has already created a plethora of material that could help you. A well thought out and formulated forum post could help provide the final touches. You claim you don't have time? You recent post history would seem to contradict that. So either keep trolling away, claiming 'woe is me, everyone is being unfair, I wish the mods would rescue me' or actually do something to solve your problem. edit: And thank you to everyone who actually posted ideas about what to do with gold besides buying magic items. 30 years of gaming and there were still some awesome nuggets of gold to be found in this thread.
