That is better than what I could've said, since you have the weight of a 3e publisher.First, I don't think anyone here is saying anything about censorship. I am not saying "Hey, you don't like 4e, get the hell out." Second, as to "opinions on the way we would like 4e to go", 4e is going in a direction, with or without you. Sure, the complaints over Dragon Tail Cut go heard, but I really don't think that WotC is going to turn the direction they've been going for the last - what, two years? - based on some posts on the message boards. Tieflings are in, Gnomes are Out. Warlocks are in, Bards aren't. Those are decisions that are probably set in stone, and no amount of criticism is going to save it.Besides, do you think that WotC would listen to the overly dissatisfied customers over 4e? From the way some people around here talk, they would have to overhaul the entire thing just to please some people. They've made the decision, set their course, and it will alienate some people. I believe they're banking on it drawing in more people than it alienates. Thirdly, my point boils down to this: 4e is coming, with you or without you. You will ultimately have to make the choice, "Do I play 4e or no?" If no, then isn't it both a little futile, and doesn't it frustrate yourself, to stick around in a place devoted to an edition you won't play, seeing information that makes you mad because it's not the direction you want to go, all for the purposes of saying "I don't like this"? A period of voicing your feelings of disappointment, understandable. Yet, how long are you willing to do that, with regards to something you don't like? Two weeks? Two months? Two years? Deciding not to play 4e is a valid choice. But there comes a time when I have to ask, "Okay, your complaints far outweigh your positive feelings in this situation. What does that say to you? And what will you do about it?"</blockquote>
