[QUOTE="Default Name Player, post: 359656, member: 2667"] Um...that the reviews isn't the entire site? Just like the messageboard isn't the entire site? That the news section isn't the entire site? Sorry, but as I have to re-iterate again, that EN World is a "total experience". I still don't fathom how you're assuming just because I am saying that the reviews section is not the end all, be all of EN world that means that I am putting down the Reviews section. Let me say this then: the message board is not the end all, be all of EN World Also: the news section is not the end all, be all of EN World Hey, I'll also add: D&D 3e is not the end all, be all of my interests Still love the site though. Still love 3e too. Do I think others find the reviews section "more praisworthy" than I do - why certainly, but that does not automatically put me on the opposite spectrum. While I "like the reviews section and like using it", someone else might "totally and utterly love it". Just because someone likes it MORE than the other person, that the "lesser" one actually...dislikes it? Nope, not at all. Sorry, but the mentality that you're "with us or against us" is too simple of a categorization....or in this case, is it "Sure, you like it, but I like it more than you do?" This is not to insult you or to infer anything, but I just wanted to pose this: perhaps "liking it more than the other person" is making you somewhat defensive on this topic? This does NOT (and I re-iterate that again) mean your opinion mean less, but that the presentation of said ideas can be somewhat...offputting. So, how should you read what I'm saying? Well, I don't find any harm in having HM reviews. That's it. I'm not advocating having HM reviews to spite anyone, or anything, or to ruin this website :p(and I'm saying that ficticiously, and not insinuating anything with that remark - I'm being flippant). I thinks it's a nice addition, others think otherwise. Hey, whatever Morrus decides in the end is fine. I'm not sure what else the above can insuinuate, but my intention from the beginning - and I'm stating this up front - is NOT to ruin the reviews section and NOT to insult you (perhaps me being flippant in certain cases doesn't help, or wasn't properly communicated). I guess that's as clear as I can make it. Col Hardisson - My apologies for speaking out of line. I usual just lurk and avoid these kind of bickering, but...well, sometimes one just needs to speak up ;) . It was not my intention to drag you into this again, nor make an insuination between you and Psion :) [/QUOTE]
