[QUOTE="Nifft, post: 3895855, member: 6562"] Trust me, I do know a little bit about modifying the game -- and the unintended consequences that can result therefrom. :) I'm also a bit familiar with the work required to re-write the game. Not everyone has that kind of time, let alone motivation, and that's before we add in the math pre-requisites. While it's [u]technically[/u] true that everyone can become a great DM, and every great DM can re-write the game -- it's not a terribly useful assertion. I don't know what kind of free time you personally have, but you should understand that not everyone has a lot of it. If your system is getting in your way, then ditch it. If you have a better one. Or if you have the drive, time, energy and mathematical background to do so, then [u]write[/u] a better one. For many of us, D&D 3.5e was pretty good. There are places we'd like to see it improve. This is one of those places. If WotC can fix this, their system will be [u]less[/u] in my way. And this will make me happier to use it. Cheers, -- N *) You mean "you're". [/QUOTE]
