I've found very often that topics which generate a lot of interest in online forums don't seem to be discussed so heavily in face-to-face encounters. I'm willing to bet that most people at my FLGS don't care whether or not the Ravenloft setting has changed since the 1990s, most of them probably know very little about the names of those credited in D&D books (Orion who?), and they don't spend a lot of time talking about the implications of ability score increases. I'm not arguing that these aren't important topics, they're just topics I typically don't see outside the online world.
