[QUOTE="Lonely Tylenol, post: 2777780, member: 18549"] It's one thing to enjoy a certain style of play. It's another to come into a public forum and badmouth people who don't play the way you like. I think the correct answer to the original poster is "get stuffed." I play D&D the way I like to play D&D. If I wanted to be part of an improv drama troupe I'd join an improv drama troupe. Hell, I did that! It was fun, but it's not what I want to do at the gaming table. Where the hell do people get off on these "your fun is bad fun and you're stupid for enjoying it" tirades, anyway? Do they just not get enough ego primping at home, so they have to go on the internet to make themselves feel superior to other people? Gawds! I play a mean game of D&D. I enjoy roleplaying and I enjoy killing things and taking their stuff. When I DM, my NPCs are interesting characters and they have motivations that go far beyond the scope of simply being roadbumps for the PCs to roll over on their way to phat loot. But somehow I'm a lesser form of gamer because I don't enjoy spending twenty minutes each combat round describing the particular flourish my axe-wielding barbarian uses as he disembowels an orc? Go play your game the way you want to play it and don't worry about the rest of us. We'll do just fine with our plebian badfun. [/QUOTE]
