[QUOTE="Dwimmerlied, post: 6181600, member: 6706967"] All but expected by who? Just because you feel you've established it, doesn't make it the only right way to play. The OP feels that the damage is considerably high. Because you consider it low damage doesn't give your opinion more validity than his. A big part of my point is that the system doesn't necessarily disagree with him, as you say in absolute terms, and its not so just because you say it is. Many believe the system works fine for many genres, and I agree. How am I participating in a pissing contest? Why, because you say it? Did you know that your if-then logic is really flawed and unimpressive? I never specified this thread, but the pissing contests happen across many threads, people arguing about how someone's build is weak and using statements like "anyone who is not a moron would do it my way."I reckon you're pretty guilty of this yourself, in this thread if you want an example. Talking like that is silly, immature and annoying to me, and I wanted to point that out. I've answered your question, I hope you can aknowledge that. I'm not pulling any satire, and I don't have the agenda you are suggesting it looks like I have. I don't mind how people play, and I don't have a two-bit slogan. I'll play with "roll players, role players and anyone between if it looks like it might be fun. But to help you to understand since you've gotten it so wrong, what is annoying is people with the "one true way to play, I'm right, others are not only wrong, but stupid" attitude, be it roleplaying or rollplaying. OK, so I might get mod-smackdown for this, but I mean this honestly, and not being rude; You may think that its clever to become more crafty and sneaky about how you talk to people when you can no longer be overtly antagonistic, but no-one's hi-fiving you for your amazing wit bro, it just makes you look like you've got a problem.
