[QUOTE="Razuur, post: 4312573, member: 1997"] Dude, I am entitled to my opinions. I am real glad some folks love it. But I was numbers on this poll. And that is a LOT. I have been around here since it was Eric Noah's page, and back then when 3e came out, there was never this much of a divide between the fans of 2e and 3e. Oh sure there were some naysayers, but in general 3e was excepted and flourished like mad (diaglo excepted). Tell me how you would have felt if the fourth edition had removed Miniaters and battlemats entirely and when entirely imagination based? The boards would be on fire and screaming. Just be glad that you are in the "winning" side. WOTC did what they felt they had to do. I recognize that. But come on, they knew this was going to sever a subsect of the community. I would be willing to bet that 1/3 of DnDers don't cross over. Will that kill the industry? No. New kids and MMOer will come to the game. But as one of those DnDers, I am real sad to see DnD leave me behind. Have some compassion for the other side. DnD and D20 used to be a system for everybody. Now it isn't. That is the shame.
