[QUOTE="kreynolds, post: 93761, member: 2829"] That's perfectly fine as you are fully entitled to your opinion. But I don't care what your opinion is of me. This isn't about popularity for me. I'm not being childish, just straight up honest. I'm not here to establish a "long-term relationship" with text on a screen. I'm here to learn about the rules and try to help others. Someone gets nasty with me, I naturally become spitefull. Perhaps I shouldn't lash back at all, but in a way, it doesn't make a difference whether I reply to such posts or not, because I don't really care. I can't be insulted on a message board. I don't even see how that would be possible. I also stated that I do respect Cal, but I lost most of that very recently, for about 5 minutes, then it came back. I can understand why someone might be upset about this whole discussion about Haste and Speed weapons. Just look at how big the previous thread got. So many people offered their opinions, some helpful, some not. And in the end, what happens? Me, [B]the new guy[/B], was right in the end, according to Skip Williams, a 3rd Edition designer. So many people sided with the "veterans" in the beginning of the previous thread. As it progressed, just a few turned their heads in another direction. By the time this thread got this far, even more of them started seeing this issue in another light, the logical one. I'm not saying anyone sided with me, and they surely didn't, far too much bitterness towards me for that, but they sure did begin to side with the Sage, who ironically, sided with me. DnD is a role-playing game and I have fun playing it, but it's not my life. What happens on these boards doesn't effect my life in the least.
