Now I like most of the people who have read the FAQ, understand that its not right 100%. Its made some mistakes, we get that. And there's nothing wrong with taking it with a grain of salt.However, I'm noticing more and more that people are just outright dismissing anything it says off hand. If two people are having an argument and one brings up the FAQ, its like he's suddenly wrong because the FAQ can never be right.The FAQ is not RAW, I get that. But when you have two very reasonable arguments, both sides with RAW backing, the FAQ definately can give some weight to one side or the other. But people won't give an inch in this department. I've seen people fight to the bitter end on an argument when the other side is just as reasonable AND has FAQ backing. There comes a point when you have to remember a former developer of the game is writing it, and as such can provide a valuable insight into the spirit of the rules when the exact letter of the rules is murky.So what I'm saying is, give the FAQ some of its due, it does help clear up a lot of rules conflict.</blockquote>
