[QUOTE="GreyLord, post: 5718916, member: 4348"] I never stopped...then again...I haven't really posted in this thread much. Before you start getting upset at some portrayals however...you should understand that ENworld is NOT the place I'd really come to discuss older editions as much. There are some old time gamers, and it becomes apparant when they talk about the games, some that pretend that they were old time gamers, and others that never played them, however...I would not say Enworld is the most friendly towards editions prior to 3e. There can be those who look on it fondly, but there are many who do not. If you want to talk to the 3e and post editions I'd say THIS IS THE PLACE to do it and this is where you'll get the most feedback and the most informative discussions. There are many more old schoolers than you think. Most of them I encounter other places then ENworld. Don't lose heart about the older editions. That said, I can't praise ENworld enough for it's support for 3e and later editions as well as Pathfinder. It's an excellent place for them, talking to people who are fans of them (even with the gripes between 3.X/Pathfinder players and 4e players...which I think is actually overblown to some extent...there are quite a few that play...gasp...BOTH!). I find it an excellent resource to find the mindset and thought patterns of the 3e post generation. In discussing older editions it's great to see how the fans of 3e and later editions think of the older editions and their preferences and attitudes towards them. It's interesting to see how they veiw the evolution of the game, and how the mindset of the gamers of this mindset are wanting and what they desire. [/QUOTE]
