[QUOTE="Goonalan, post: 5321568, member: 16069"] I'm also tired of hearing that it's "just the internet and I'm venting" from all the internet tough-guys. There's lots of behaviors that used to be acceptable (they're only slaves) that we don't tolerate today. The culture was altered because one group of people called out the other on their brutishness. Would you actually read some of these posts to the people at Wizards if you were looking them in the face? I'm not that tough any more, waiting for a knee-op- i hope I exude macho here on the net of course but... I am an ex-boxer, ex-armed forces guy- out of shape of course... but, I assure you, I coulda' been a contender... I too don't like brutish behaviour, but- and I'm sorry to say it again- rather here on the internet... get it out of your system, feel refreshed- tomorrow (at work) I will be faced by a whole new set of problems. And I'll be dancing to begin with, because I had my vent, said my bit, drew a line in the sand, planted the flag of justice, wielded the holy (vorpal) sword of indignation... more blather follows, oh you know what I mean. The stuff I wrote, of course I'd say it to their faces, I live in the UK- I phone up the BBC/ITV/C4 (etc.) to tell them when they've treated people badly (or just been plain lazy ), or not done their job properly. I some how delude myself that this makes me the good guy at times- particularly as my work requires me to know about a) TV, and the associated Media b) disability- the later being the most common cause of my complaints to the aforementioned. If I lived in the US I'd phone Wizards, or write- I've written e-mails to them in the past, and I've sent as many complimentary ones as I have bad ones (just about). I get what you're saying, don't get me wrong, we are just venting though- and we're a bit mad (rightly or wrongly), the OP wanted to vent- We came, we read, we vented. Best thing about D&D- easy, brings people together. Mostly not to agree with each other however. LOL. [/QUOTE]
