[QUOTE="Deset Gled, post: 5750965, member: 7808"] Give it time. You'd be surprised how some things work out after you let things cool down a bit. There was a time when ENWorld was pretty much forced to have separate forums for 3e rules, 3e house rules, and 2e and older legacy stuff. The arguments of real rules vs house rules were livid and full of malice, and many people claimed (just as you do) that it would be too messy to mix 3e and previous editions. Then, after 4e came out, traffic died down to the point where it didn't make sense to have all those different forums, and they were merged into one Legacy forum. And, lo and behold, that forum gets along just fine. People specify in the thread if they're talking about a specific old edition, or talking house rules vs WotC rules. I'm not guaranteeing that 4e and 3e will live happily in the same forum. Maybe it will eventually make more sense to merge 3e with pathfinder, and do something else with 2e and earlier stuff. I don't know the best way to handle it. But I can guarantee you that the situation will be extremely different after 5e is released. [/QUOTE]
