Everybody plays differently and tries to get different things out of the game.There's just this.. human characteristic or whatever you want to call it, that so many seem to have.. that when we really like something and obsess over it, or we have a preffered way of doing things.. that we expect others to see it the same way. Liking something on it's own isnt enough, you need to actually feel superior while liking it.And that's not very positive but understandable when it comes to things like religion, politics, morality or things like that. But frivole, entertainment topics.. like what console do you game on? which bands do you like?  Which D&D edition do you prefer, and how do you play it?I find it both funny & sad at the same time these things get argued in the same way how religion or politics might be taken.. maybe it's an identity thing?But I digress, the nice thing about D&D and other RPG's is that you can *both* do the' dice rolling board game part' and the 'pretending to be an elf slaying orcs' part at the same time. If it's all about role playing, you might as well do improv theatre, and if it's all about gaming, you can play warhammer. And even if one does prefer one thing over the other, if you like doing what you do, who cares as long as your fun doesnt counter other people's fun.And wheter or not the R in RPG stands roll or role, the P and G stand for PLAYING GAME! Keep that in mind and it's fun, dont obsess over the method because 'Roll/Role Protocol Serious-bussiness' is just sad.</blockquote>
