[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 9104163, member: 18"] So you might be right! You may well be 100% right. But here's the problem. We're essentially the ones deciding the fate of the stuff that's going into the surveys. That 0.01% is I would suggest pretty much undoubtedly more "us" than any other category of D&D players. If we remember the chart where we're like 10% of D&D players, I would guess that people 40+ are probably 50% or more of the people filling in the survey. And that they're probably very online, axe-grind-y D&D players like us, not representative of the bulk of D&D players. So "we" (in a sense) are the ones who keep going "Lame idea, dump it!", and maybe that's actually a great idea that the 20+ million younger and more diverse and less axe-grind-y players would like, but the 20-40k people (or less!) people filling in the survey gave it 50% instead of 70% and so now that idea is OUT! Either way, it kind of doesn't matter, the surveys are causing "us" to be rejecting this stuff! [/QUOTE]
