We almost never open a rule book at the table, and we never have rules arguments at the table.In 3.x, the game came to a halt just about every single time a non-damage spell was cast. Someone broke out the rules and we figured out how the spell worked.Way back in high school we ignored all the 1e rules we didn't like/understand, and for the most part we all agreed which rules those were. But since most things 1e were DM judgement we had elaborate parliamentary procedures for when and how and who could argue different points of the rules. I'm sure a lot of the change in "rules transparency" is not due to different rules but to different maturities in my gaming friends, but 4e feels the most transparent of the lot.PS</blockquote>
