The presence of munchkins in D&D has nothing to do with the system.It has to do with 2 things:1) D&D is the most widely taught "first game." Munchkinism is pretty much a trait of new players (and players who never outgrow that stage.)2) D&D has good support for dungeon crawls, a mode of play that doesn't require that you roleplay*.That's it. If you really think that 3e is some eminantly abusable system, might I suggest you don't know the market.* - That is not to say that it is bad for role playing. In fact, I prefer it to systems that try to foist character traits on you; I find the role playing much more natural without them. Further, there is support in the DMG for other modes of play, which at bashers of the game prefer to marginalize or ignore.</blockquote>
