[QUOTE="Einan, post: 3822961, member: 29893"] I've noticed something ever since 4e was announced that bothers me. We're getting into arguments over speculations about a product that's not even to the printers yet. Decent, rational people are getting snide and angry to each other over tidbits that drop from Designer's blogs and forum posts that may or may not actually bear out into any resemblance of fact. We should not be this invested in rumors. I'm reminded of when I was a kid, speculating over what I might get for Christmas, in July. It's just all wishful thinking or fear mongering. Until the final product is in the printer's hands, nothing is set in stone. NOTHING. Not even the things that the designers say is set in stone. Until there's ink, it's just electrons. So let's all take a nice deep breath, calm ourselves and not get worked up over what MAY happen in a year. It's not constructive and it doesn't make for good forum neighbors. And most of all, it's just not fun. And above all else, D&D in whatever iteration it takes, is fun. /soapbox Einan [/QUOTE]
