[QUOTE="Thomas Shey, post: 8721715, member: 7026617"] The problem with some people is that, whether they think of it consciously that way or not, really expect they're in a struggle for mindspace. People have, at some point, almost always had trouble getting players together for a game, or notice that they're not getting additional material for the version of the game they use. And the take-home they get from that is that [I]people who want different things out of a game are a passive threat to their enjoyment.[/I] Its hard to even call it completely irrational. Ask anyone who's wanted to get together a game of something other than the current edition of D&D in certain areas how much differences in taste doesn't matter. But the reality is, getting into a death battle about it is pointless. The fact you're telling people their fun is bad and wrong isn't going to stop them mostly, so what are you doing other than cooking up stress? [/QUOTE]
