[QUOTE="wingsandsword, post: 4905778, member: 14159"] So, because I've posted here that I really don't like 4th edition Forgotten Realms and believe that at least a a "significant minority" (your words) of Realms fans didn't like it that I'm going to go on a bunch of Ignore lists? Somehow I doubt there are only four of us on ENWorld that don't like what was done to the setting and believe we aren't alone and can be outspoken about it at times. Out in the real world, away from internet message boards, I know of more groups playing 3.x than 4e, and I don't know of anybody who is playing 4e Realms. Why has it dropped off the face of discussion? Well, I don't bring it up because it seems like there is no point to it. It's not like WotC is going to say "Oops, we screwed up and ruined our most famous setting, let's set everything back to the way it was", and it seems that the D&D community is irreparably suffered a significant schism over 4e and things tied to it like the Spellplague in FR, so just going back and forth about it seems to be counterproductive. Personally, when I have the time I still play 3.5 FR with my friends and assume that the Spellplague never happened (we did have fun once with an adventure where a Chronomancer came back saying he came from after a horrible apocalypse where Mystra was slain by Shar and the world was ravaged and sundered and the Weave was fading fast, but we prevented that timeline :) ).
