Typically you probably would rather play to type, but there's not really a disadvantage to playing against it for most race/class combinations, and you can work in some advantages. An elf makes a darn good ranger, but you can also make a very nice elf fighter or elf cleric, though you're still probably going to lean in certain specific 'elfy' ways (IE using spears or generally playing a WIS/CHA build cleric). I thought the added racial feats were a pretty good system too. Again, playing to type was often favored, but many racial feats also served to reinforce alternatives or just add some little quirk that might be good for almost any character. I agree though, the poll was neigh useless as it lacked any referents for the terms used. I have no idea if 4e would count as 'moderate', 'very', or 'little'.</blockquote>
