[QUOTE="IcyCool, post: 2684368, member: 20308"] *Points to Peter Gibbons response post.* No, I'm not. I'm talking about my past experiences. Hyperbole? [b]You[/b] haven't experienced? Where did I say that you did? I was talking about my experiences. As to your outright accusations and veiled insults, I'm not looking to pick a fight. I've stated my opinion, and you disagree. But I won't be the target of your venting. So please, take a deep breath. :) No, it never was for me. This is the first time I've really experienced the whole "PC vs. DM" bit. And I don't like it. I haven't claimed that they were "endemic" to 3e/3.5e. I have said that I haven't noticed this sort of behavior before 3.x, and even stated in my post that it might be the gaming circle I'm in. I said that I've noticed a change. As someone pointed out in this thread, the new ruleset has attracted all sorts of folks into this hobby, wargamers and magic players included. Maybe I'm just running into people who have never roleplayed before (though they claim to). And honestly, with the way some of them behave, I don't want to be the one to teach them to roleplay. You haven't had these problems yet, and that's good for you. I hope you never do. I hope you never have to understand where I'm coming from. It's just not fun. [/QUOTE]
