[QUOTE="Crazy Jerome, post: 5468979, member: 54877"] If John Doe could say that, and leave it there, or perhaps elaborate on why he feels that way, we wouldn't be having this conversation. But Mr. Doe frequently can't. Instead of such elaboration, Mr. Doe apparently finds it a better use of his time to dish out the passive aggressive snipes on what anyone else enjoying 4E must be doing with it--since they are obviously aren't [roleplaying, playing D&D, having fun, telling a story, preventing dog and cat abuse, etc.]. And speaking of policing "your side," as much as I can admire the way RC, Danny, you and others can argue on behalf of "your side" of this issue with a calm head, I can't help but think that "4E isn't D&D" as a useful shorthand and simple statement of preference could have been preserved if you (collectively) had spent some time countering Mr. Doe's unwarranted sniping--instead of leaving it to others. (Not that it never happens. I've been lurking here a long time. I've seen it happen occasionally.) Peter, you are over the line. I'm probably over the line (hard to see when its you). If my rifle is loaded and I'm headed to the roof, it's only because I saw Mearls and Mecurious step out in the street, and [B]immediately[/B] several shots rang out. Hypocrisy? Really? [/QUOTE]
