I find 3ed tolerable, and totally refuse to play the previous editions.For me, it is mostly the stereotyping and inflexibility in the rules system that I dislike. The overly complex and sometimes just plain broken rules also bother me, especially when people who have never played any other system say the system is simple.The system isn't simple. You've got things like computing bonuses that do or don't stack, DR, weapon enhancment bonuses, bonus damage dice, elemental damage, and AoO that make combat quite a bit more complex. The feats just add more complexity into an already complex situation.I do play 3e D&D. That is the main reason I visit these boards. I also occationally hope for something on the general board that is more generic. Sometimes there are a couple of topics that are, such as the non-RPG sources thread.I don't troll. I've got better things to do with my life than get into a flame war with a fanatic. When the tone stays civil, I'll talk about other systems and other ways of doing things. When there gets to be too much of "...but don't you realize 3E is the best answer to any campaign", I tend to drop it.</blockquote>
