Prepping for a poll: What D&D topics generate the most discussion (posts) here?

[Driddle]

From the notes so far (and my memory), it looks like some of our favorite topics of controversy and/or thoughtful discussion involving the game itself:

* A lawful good paladin doing something that could be interpreted as evil (ala killing a bunch of kobold babies).

* What do you expect in the 4th edition? (Timing of release, material included, rules fixed, etc.)

* Share your opinions about how I propose to build my character.

* The strengths and weakenesses of "meta-gaming."

* What can be done about certain players that disrupt our gaming experience?

* The "broken" ranger -- or more generally, what's wrong with this or that class and how should it be fixed?

Paladin topic for the win. (Or lose, as the case probably is.)

But low magic within DnD 3.x rules comes up often.

Any topic that initiates discussion of how much crunch and detail people prefer.

"Old school" vs. modern D&D

When anyone starts asserting what is "best" or what is "good."

Questions concerning settings, particularly published settings, often set off debate.

1) Power gaming vs roleplaying
2) should we buy players handbook 2
3) how frequent and easily available should magic items be for the players characters
4) what to do when a character dies
5) 3.5 vs 3.0 vs 2nd edition vs AD&D vs Basic
6) character creation dice rolling methods
