[QUOTE="AbdulAlhazred, post: 6580258, member: 82106"] Call me a skeptic ;) Even if such a thing exists, its NOT D&D, or if someone played it using D&D then they basically didn't use much of the system. Its certainly not what RPGs are envisaged to be for, remember the Pens & Paperclips joke? Well, I get that feeling too, but I know he's sincere and he's far from alone. I don't have anything against Saelorn getting what he wants, or what he really wants, or what's 'best' for him, or whatever. I think if he got a chance to play with someone like Chris Perkins, or PirateCat, or maybe Pemerton, he'd get an eye-opening experience, but he should definitely play how he likes. My criteria really is that people do what they like but do it with open eyes, knowing its the choice they wanted, not doing it believing they're doing one thing when they're doing a different thing, or without knowing what else is out there. Not that its my business to 'educate' people or decide who does or doesn't know what, but of course we're all busibodies sometimes. [/QUOTE]
