[QUOTE="Levistus's_Leviathan, post: 8482842, member: 7023887"] The people who are outraged by the changes in Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft are the ones that are "clutching pearls". It's perfectly fine if you don't like the changes, but to call it "BadRavenloft", "Ravenbad 2.0", or "Wokenloft" (as I've seen some people online call it) is the pearl clutching, not the people that actually enjoy it and don't appreciate something they like being called that. It's not "pearl clutching" to object to people smack-talking something you enjoy. That would be like accusing someone of pearl clutching when they say that they don't like it when their favorite TV show is insulted by someone else. You don't have to like it, but you also don't have to insult it and call something that people enjoy bad just because you have a different opinion. (Side Note: Pearls are primarily composed of calcium, so clutching them, no matter how hard, will almost definitely not turn them into diamonds, which are made out of pure carbon.) [/QUOTE]
