[QUOTE="jmucchiello, post: 1829888, member: 813"] This is untrue and foolish. A demonstratably wrong fact in a review should be refuted by the correct fact. Just make sure you are refuting a fact and not an opinion. "Actually there are 5 feats in the book of 5 feats" is a perfectly valid response to a review. "Actual the feats in the book of 5 feats are perfectly balanced and properly playtested" is not a good response to a review. If you look at reviews of my products I'll ask lots of questions about a review. Nobody has told me I was being a jerk and even the reviewer has given me a useful answer to my questions: useful meaning given the reader more proper info about my book than if I hadn't asked the question. Granted, not all publishers/writers can keep their egos in check over reviews. But if you can, there is no reason not to respond to a review that has factual mistakes. Just don't say anything about the reviewer's opinion. [/QUOTE]
