Please show me where I've been disrespectful. What questions have I asked or points have I made that were disrespectful to the sensibilities of anyone for any edition.That you felt the need to invoke Gygax's and Arneson's names, and tip-toe softly into the question just seems overly sensitive. Nothing wrong with it if that's how you want to broach a subject, but a little much to ask of everyone else who wants to simply ask a question or start a neutral discussion for information exchange.Does anyone need to show such high-level reverence for D&D4 to ask a question?"Out of respect for the 4e designers, I ran a couple of short adventures with 4e. While I'm not giving up my 1e game for it, I'd like to do a six-session mini-campaign with 4e. Thing is, I have a bit of a problem with X, which seems to bring about Y, which doesn't work for me. Have any of you had any luck in working around it within the system?"I would have phrased the question: "Did/do you use rule X as written in the rules, or did/do you use a house rule work around?" Straight, neutral, without laying any bias for the direction of discussion. Most of the time my questions on older editions come from either reading the books the night before posting, or reading comments in various threads here at ENWorld.I only ever comment on editions that I personally like and love. So I find it odd that anyone would take my comments as any kind of hating on the edition at issue. I specifically do not comment on editions I don't like or don't know. How many other posters here can say that with a straight face?Bullgrit</blockquote>
