[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 8706154, member: 22779"] Sorry, that wasn't clear. I wasn't saying that you were doing this. But, it was certainly going on. Again, why do you think that they had to silo off certain topics just to contain the acrimony? And, it was hardly limited to En World. If there was even the remotest hint of a positive story about 4e in the mainstream (or even less mainstream) press, all you had to do was look at the comments thread. Two or three people saying how it was great to see D&D in things like Newsweek, and then fifteen thousand comments about how 4e was the worst thing ever and destroying the hobby. It was never ceasing. It never stopped. Not for a moment. Not until D&D Next was announced and the self same people couldn't help but do donuts on the grave of 4e. To the point where you STILL, what, over a decade later, cannot begin to talk about 4e without having the same crap come up. The level of toxicity was unbelievable. [/QUOTE]
