[QUOTE="knifie_sp00nie, post: 4879583, member: 62610"] One reason is that the 4e players/fans have had to put up with over a year of every thread discussing the game getting :):):):) on by people that decided they didn't like 4e. You couldn't have any sort of discussion without someone trying to start an edition war. Even Enworld, with alert moderators was unable to stop the crapping, minimizing it to roundabout jabs about print run statistics. Now the holy grail for all the 4e haters is finally arriving and I imagine that some 4e fans would like some vengeance. They'll analyze every rule and run the probabilities through spreadsheets so they can declare Pathfinder broken or overpowered. They'll formulate arguments for how the skill system doesn't promote roleplaying and how you can't create the same characters you could in some other game system. They'll ask the question, "Is Pathfinder still a DnD clone?" I'm sick of the edition wars, but I totally understand why some people would like to return some bile. There were a lot of people that made civilized discourse impossible for so long, why not take the opportunity to pee in their pool? The grognards didn't have the courtesy to be civil the first time around, so why take the high ground when the tables are turned? Just basic human nature. [/QUOTE]
