For some, it's way more interesting if the DM rolls dice when the pcs search and they are never quite sure whether they found everything.This comes across to me as pretty condescending and one-true-wayish. I hope I'm misreading your tone.Seriously, no group ever returns to the site of an adventure in your campaign? You never use the same setting for multiple groups? Nobody ever misses anything in your adventures? You've never had pcs claim a cleared out lair for their own or use a dungeon for holding prisoners or settling that dwarven clan driven out of their homeland?If the only way you can conceive of a place or setting that outlasts one adventure or party of adventurers is to think "CRPG", then I'm afraid your view of what makes a campaign is quite narrow. Heck, there have been some adventure areas with at least three visits to them in published adventures over the years- and Tomb of Horrors has had at least five incarnations that I am aware of.</blockquote>
